Question:

Hi I have a 2005 Honda Element which is getting a bike hitch installed at your place on the 20th. Can you recommend a platform rack that is easy to remove? Id like to have it off the car on days I dont ride. I dont have an ebike so I dont need anything with that type of capay. Thanks

Helpful Expert Reply:

Based on your needs, the best fit for your 2005 Honda Element is going to be the Swagman Chinook Bike Rack for 2 Bikes item # S64683. This bike rack fits the 2" receiver of the etrailer item # e78KR you are having installed. The carrier is lightweight at only 47 lbs so it is easily removable. The best feature about this bike is its ability to fold down so you can access your rear cargo area. I have attached a picture below of this function. I have also linked an installation and review video so you can see the process involved with using this bike rack.
