Question:

I drive a 2006 Honda Civic SI. Will this bike rack fit on this car. Which hitch receiver do you recommend I buy for this setup? Thank you

Expert Reply:

I would recommend Curt trailer hitch # C11391 for your 2006 Honda Civic. This hitch is custom-fit for your vehicle and requires no drilling to install.

The Swagman 2-bike rack, # S64670, will work well with this hitch, but I would recommend that you check the weight of the bikes to make sure they are less than 35lbs each. As long as the bikes are 35lbs or less each, the Swagman rack would be a good choice for your application.

To lock the bike rack to the trailer hitch, you would use part # S64029. You can also lock the top bike hook using a lock with a 1/4 inch pin diameter, like part # e98884.

I am including links to a demonstration video that goes over some of the features of the bike rack as well as to the hitch installation instructions and a typical installation video, if needed.
