Question:

I have 1 2005 Lexus 330 SUV. I have no trailer towing hitch, howver someone passed me the other day with a 2 bile rack hooked up to a support un er the rear and hooked to the frame. The bike rack was yours. Any ideas?

Expert Reply:

What you most likely saw was a bike rack attached to a hitch. For your 2005 Lexus RX330, I would recommend the Valley Class III Round Tube Trailer Hitch Receiver, # V81310. Once that is installed, you could then easily mount a 2 bike rack like the Thule Roadway, part # TH912XT. Thule offers many other 2 bike racks, I really like the Helium, part # TH970XT due to its lightweight aluminum construction, the integrated cable lock for securing the bikes to the rack and the integrated hitch lock. These features are extra-cost options on other racks, but are included on the Helium.

I will provide links to the instructions for the hitch and the racks I have recommended, as well as a product demonstration video
