Question:
I wanted to know class 2 or 3 What’s that mean? I may carry two bikes Or 125-200 lbs on flat extended piece

Expert Reply:
A class II hitch has a 1-1/4" receiver and a class III hitch like item # e72AR has a 2" receiver. A class III hitch will have more capacity to carry heavier bike's on a bike rack. It will also be able to tow more weight if that's something you're interested in. There are also more options available for accessories with a 2" receiver.
The only hitches we have available for your 2021 Acura RDX are class III's. The best one is going to be the etrailer item # e72AR. This hitch is custom fit and bolts to your Acura with included hardware.
I have linked an installation video below to help you get it set up.
