The Curt trailer hitch part # C13315 and the Draw-Tite hitch part # 76138 for the 2019 Mazda CX-5 are both very similar since they are both 2" hitches and require the same exact installation process on the 2019 Mazda CX-5. However, the Curt hitch does offer more ground clearance compared to the Draw-Tite option which will come in handy when carrying a bike rack. The bike rack is less likely to drag the ground when backing up or down a hill with more ground clearance so the Curt is the better option. I have attached a video for your reference.
