Hi There..struggling to find the right solution. Im looking for a hidden/removable hitch mount system for my 2014 BMW 428i F32. Need it to carry bikes only. Not clear if any of the brands fit: DrawTite, Curt, ExecuHitch, Westfalia, Bosal. Help please!!! :

For your 2014 BMW 428i we have the Curt hitch part # C11367 which is a confirmed fit and would work well. Only thing is that it is not "hidden," it is visible as it hangs below the rear bumper. It will do a great job carrying a bike rack though. Nothing we offer will is totally hidden.

The most popular bike rack we carry that has been confirmed to fit this vehicle is the Thule Roadway 2 part # TH9058. We asked our demo and install guys to name their favorite, most easy-to-use bike racks and this one showed up in nearly everyone's top three. Check out the review video I attached for more info.

If you plan on carrying any womens or alternative framed bikes without horizontal top tubes you may also be interested in purchasing a Kuat Bike Frame Adapter Bar # UB01 to provide a horizontal top tube on your bikes to provide an attachment point. I attached a review video for this product also. This will allow the bikes to be carried more level and will provide more ground clearance.

Curt requires the use of their stabilizer strap part # 18050 when using their hitch to carry a non-supported load like a bike rack. I attached a review video for you to check for the strap as well.
