Raised Receiver Needed to Raise a Thule Bike Rack To Safely Carry Bikes
Question:
I have a Thule hitch and when I put my bikes on, they are pretty low to the ground. Do you have anything that would allow the bikes to ride higher up off the ground?

Expert Reply:
Yes, we do have a solution for your Thule hitch mounted bike rack. We have 3 different parts you could use to raise your bike rack to safely carry your bikes. The Curt Dual 2 Inch Receiver, item # D-192, or the Curt Multipurpose Ball Mount with 2" Receiver for Bike Racks and Cargo Carriers, # D210, would both be good choices, depending on the style you like.
