2 inch Trailer Hitch Recommendation for 2018 Lexus NX 300 for Carrying Bike Rack

Published 02/20/2019

Question:

Want to install tow hitch,... but only for my bike rack. No trailer, no RVs, nothing heavy and thus no need cabling. Only bike rack w receiver opening 2 x 2 inches. Will it work?

For your 2018 Lexus NX 300 we have the Curt hitch part # C13337 which is a confirmed fit. This is a 2 inch trailer hitch like you mentioned wanting which would do a great job carrying a bike rack.

I really like the Saris Freedom Superclamp part # SA4025F. This is a lightweight platform rack (which is normally an unheard of combo). That means it'll be easy to install and remove from your vehicle since it's light, but also it'll be very easy to load bikes on since it's a platform rack.

This rack also only touches bikes at the tire so it protects any damage to delicate frame materials or finishes.
