your parts were sloppy tolerences and did not fit together well. had to buy another hitch reducer from another company.
Works well, does the job.
I needed a hitch adapter for a bikec rack but all the ones I found were way too long and stuck out too far. This was the only short one I could find. It works great and I drove 2,000 miles with it.
It works just as expected
This etrailer product was the least expensive 1.25" adapter I could find. The product works as advertised but the inside clearance is little large when my bike rack is installed compared to when I install the bike rack on my other vehicle which has a 1.25" receiver hitch. I plan to use a small piece of sheet metal to act a shim in order to take up some of the slack.
Just didn’t get the job done. Still had too much wiggle. Added the clamping device but that still didn’t solve it. Have to return this one and search for another solution.
My bike rack is too small for this adapter. It’s supposed to be 2 inch to 1.25 inch. My hubby measured 1 1/3 inch. My bike rack is 1.25 inch.

hmmm...let me look into this. I am wondering if its a manufacturing error. Be on the lookout for an email!
Pretty simple product. Not much to say. It’s worth it to buy the stabilizer.
Exactly what I needed for my 2020 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited so that I can use my 1 1/4" Thule bikerack on my 2" trailer hitch.

Still works great. Have had it for nearly 4000 miles carrying the bike rack with no issues.
Arrived on time both trailer hitch reducer and lock works perfectly
Wanted this adapter so I could use my 1 1/4" bike rack on my 2" hitch. Sized is reduced by welded steel plates inside the reducer. Poor tolerances. Was more like 1 3/8" inside width, so my 1 1/4" bike rack mount flops over to one side or the other.

I hate to hear that the adapter is not working for your bike rack. I am having our Quality department look into this for you.
Works like a charm, Thanks.
Slipped right over the 1 1/4" hitch without being too big or loose. Perfect for what I needed.
Loose fitting. It was used to fit my bike rack and did not like how it bounced around. I used metal shims to lessen the bounce. Would not recommend.
Exactly what I need . Size was just perfect . Finished outstanding. 100% recommended
This works. I needed to downsize my trailer hitch to accept my smaller hitch sized bike rack. It's a bit wobbly. I was able to help that with some thin plastic "shims"(geri rigged).
This part fits a 2" 2025 Subaru hitch for a Thule T 2- bike rack conversion with minimum distance from bumper to bike rack
Been using this reducer for a year now my my low-profile 2in. hitch and 1-1/4in Thule bike rack, and it’s been great. Have had zero issues with fit or construction.
it is what I needed for my receiver

very well.
Very happy.
Finally had the hitch (with the hitch reducer and anti rattle hitch receiver lock) installed on my 2025 Hyundai Tucson by my mechanic. Have to say I am VERY disappointed with the hitch reducer . My bike holder is as shaky and unstable as ever. I won't even try to put my bike on the holder for fear of the bike holder and bike falling off. Very disappointed with the product. Now I will have to figure out how to stabilize the the holder. I have a fear of having to now spend more money to remove the hitch reducer and purchase a bike holder that fit the the 2"hitch.
Nice construction, but poor tolerance for inside dimension (it’s almost 1 3/8”) Unusable with my Kuat bike rack which is sadly the reason I bought it - bike rack will not firmly attach. Don’t recommend.
Exactly what I needed to accommodate my bike rack. However, since it's only natural that I already have a 5/8"
pin for my existing 2" hitch I didn't require the one included with this reducer. Perhaps offer the pin as an option and reduce the price accordingly.
After ordering this for a bike rack installation I wasn’t happy with the way it worked so I sent it back to be returned for a refund. I never received the refund or any correspondence for the reducer. Please let me know why and what happened.
It works but the 1 1/4" section measures 1 3/8" making a very sloppy fit for my bike rack. I'm securing the 2" side with an anti-rattle pin which works well. There is much more movement in the rack than there was on my old vehicle which had a 1 1/4" receiver. I made a shim from some 1/8" thick aluminum angle which greatly reduced the movement in my rack. Not a very satisfying solution.
Do you have a question about this Hitch Adapter?

There may be looseness using the extender due to how the receiver hitch was machined. When manufacturer it can happen where the receiver will be on the bigger side of two inches as it may be be exactly two inches. This happens with any kind of accessory. I recommend using an anti rattle device such as part # RSCP and watch the review video below.
