Does the RockyMounts BackStage Need an Extension on a 2019 Nissan NV200

Question

Question:

I was wondering if the Rockymounts Backstage 2 Bike Platform Swingaway will fit a Nissan NV200? Will an extension be necessary to clear the bumper? Thank you!

It looks like the hitches available for the 2019 Nissan NV200, like the Curt Class III, part # C13165, have a distance from the center of the hitch pin hole to the bumper of about 2". The RockyMounts BackStage, part # RKY10002, has a distance from the center of the hitch pin hole to the closest part of the rack in the folded up position of 7".

As such, I am happy to inform you that an extension is not necessary. I've linked to video reviews of the bike rack and hitch below.
