Options for Carrying a Hitch Mount Bike Rack for 2 inch Hitches on a 1995 Honda Odyssey
Question:
can you build me a custom hitch for a 1995 Honda Odyssey? I need it to take a 2inch receiver to mount a bike rack. Thanks you, sincerely

I may have an option that will work for you, however we are only a retailer, not an actual trailer hitch manufacturer. We do not make any of the products that we sell. To have a hitch custom made, you will most likely have to contact a custom fabrication shop to see if they would be willing to make something for you.
There is only one hitch built for the Odyssey - the Curt # C11211, which is a Class-1 hitch, only capable of a 200 pound tongue weight. If you add an adapter like the # HTAD for a 2" receiver, you will then reduce the tongue weight capacity by 50%, in this case only leaving 100 pounds. You will have to subtract the weight of any bike rack you connect to that. I would probably find a bike rack with a 1-1/4" connection to preserve your weight capacity. I would also check your owners manual to see what the vehicles tongue weight limit is as well.
