Question:

Hello, Im not to familiar with hitches this will actually be my first and Im looking for a solid bike rack. The 1up quick rack has really caught my eye and I was hoping that it was compatible with this hitch. I realize that the hitch opening itself should be compatible with the rack but Im worried that the rack wont be able to slide in far enough to meet the installing requirements. . Thank you.

I have a solution for your but the 1Up bike rack that fits the 1-1/4 inch hitch size requires a Class II hitch which for your 2010 Honda Civic there are only Class I hitches in this size. But you could use a 2 inch hitch like the EcoHitch # 306-X7233 which would allow you to use the 2 inch hitch version of the 1up rack.

Or if you wanted to use the smaller hitch size you could use the Yakima SingleSpeed part # Y02481 with a Class I hitch like the # C11391 that fits your vehicle.
