What type of hitch do you recommend for a 2016 Subaru CrossTrek to put my bike rack on? Thanks!

Expert Reply:
The best trailer hitch receiver for your 2016 Subaru Crosstrek for you to carry a bike rack is the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C13135.
The reason is because this 2" hitch will give you the most ground clearance and bumper clearance for your rack compared to the other hitches that fit your Subaru, so you can keep your rack far from your vehicle and free from scraping the ground.
This is going to work perfectly with a bike rack such as the Swagman Chinook # S64683, Saris Freedom # SA4412B, or Saris SuperClamp EX # SA4025F.
I have added a link to a video install for you to check out as well of the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C13135.
