The lightest platform-style bike rack that we carry that includes locks and a tilting feature is the Kuat Sherpa 2.0 Bike Carrier, # SH12B. The Sherpa will fit Class I trailer hitches with a 1-1/4 inch receiver and the wheel mount design is great for hybrid bikes and bikes with large and angled frames. This bike rack also has a shank with a 3-1/2 inch rise for better ground clearance.
I have attached a review video of this bike rack for you to check out.
