The Kuat Beta 2 Bike Rack, # B202-114, will fit on your 2001 Mazda Miata. The trailer hitch on your Miata is likely a Class I trailer hitch with a 1-1/4 inch receiver, which is compatible with this bike rack. The Kuat Beta is an excellent choice because the tongue weight capacity of a Miata is very low. At 13 lbs, you will not have to worry about the bike rack taking up too much weight.

I have attached a demonstration video of this bike rack for you to check out.

If you plan on carrying any womens, childrens or alternative frame bikes, then I recommend picking up an adapter bar like part # UB01. Bikes with small or angled frames can be difficult to load on a bike rack and can cause ground clearance issues. This adapter will allow you to load your bikes easily and safely.
