Expert Reply:

The EcoHitch Stealth Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - 2", # EH84GR is available for delivery in Canada. The pricing will be in US currency so the exchange rate will dictate the Canadian currency rate which most credit or debit cards will do for you.

Most 1-1/4 inch shank bike racks are compatible with 2 inch hitches directly using a rack specific adapter without changing the rack capacity in any way.

However there are a select few bike racks that require a universal adapter like # HT02, # MT70033, or # 80300. These will add some length between your hitch and the bike rack as well as reduce the tongue weight capacity of the hitch by 50%. In that case your rack weight would be subtracted from the 150 lb tongue weight capacity to then give you the total remaining capacity of your bike rack for carrying bikes. The only time this would not work is if your vehicle tongue weight is less than the 150 lb hitch tongue weight capacity.
