The Kuat Sherpa 2.0 bike rack part # SH22G is a great choice for a wheel-mounted platform rack on your 2011 Subaru Outback. This is one of the nicest racks on the market and I think you would really like it. Check out the review video I attached for more details and info.
For a hitch I would recommend the Draw-Tite part # 75673. This is the most popular hitch available for your vehicle. This is a 2 inch hitch that will offer more flexibility and capacity for future hitch accessories or towing as there are fewer hitch accessories available for 1-1/4 inch hitches.
