Do You Have a 1-1/4" to 1-1/4" Hitch Adapter w/ Rise?

Hey Dan, not really. You could piece one together using the Trailer Hitch Adapter - 1-1/4" to 2" Hitch item # e93YR and the Hitch Reducer 2" to 1-1/4" Trailer Hitch item # HT02. However, you're not going to want to do this.

Using any kind of hitch adapter reduces your hitch's capacity by 50%. Seeing as how you already have a lower capacity of 200 lbs with a 1-1/4" hitch I do not see an adapter being a solution.

What bike rack do you have and how heavy is your bike?

Hey Dan, did you find a solution for your bike rack hitting the ground? If you're still looking for a way to fix this, I'm happy to help!

@JerredH Hi Jerred. This isn't Dan but I'm having the same problem with the bike rack on my Chevy Bolt. With two bikes on it, the rack bounces a little and can hit the ground. I need a 1 1/4" to 1 1'4 riser hitch to get the rack up a bit. Everything I see online seems to. be 1 1/4 to 2 inch. Thanks Alden

@Alden Yeah like I told Dan there's no 1-1/4" to 1-1/4" adapter with or without rise. They just don't make them due to weight restrictions.
