Hidden Hitch for the Fit is a Class I, with 1 1/4" receiver tube. All other brands of hitches made for the Fit are the same- 1 1/4". You will need a bike rack for 1 1/4" receiver, or a custom-made adapter to fit a Cl. I tube, with a 2" receiver on the other end.

 

Hey thanks for that info ,i just checked the North shore racks web page and they have a 2 bike carrier for 1 1/4 hitch.So thqat makes it easy for me.

 

You're welcome. I didn't know if your "Hidden hitch with a 2" receiver" post was a typo. Good that you found a rack that fits 1 1/4", because the standard 1 1/4" X 2" tube adapters are much too long to use on a Fit.

 

OT: but does anyone have pix of teh hidden hitch? can you actually see it from behind? how does it mount?!

 

I will post one when I get a chance to take one off my car...
