Hello S2KI members,

Do any of you have a trailer hitch on your S? If so, can you add a reply with a photo and name brand of the hitch?

I cycle religiously and need to cart around my road bike.

Thanks,
Jetpilot

 

The S2000 is not a tow vehicle That said it has been done.
Here is some pics of a 2003 S2000 with a hitch



This car was used in a landscape business
There are others out there that tow tires to the track with there S2000.

If you check on Ebay you may find the hitch or post in the WTB thread. I think it will be able to tow your bike as long as the tong weight is not to much and your not lowered. The S2000 has a weight capacity of about 300 lbs.
Good luck

 

I think this is the best design out there currently. It should work fine for you.

Don't let people scare you off about using a hitch on the S. I've put about 5000 towing miles on mine pulling a tire trailer for autocross. My trailer has about 50lbs. of tongue weight. Your bike and carrier should weigh less than that.

 

someone on this board added a very nice hitch..chazmo?

 

I have the chase race hitch for my bike. It works very well. Just make sure you get a Yakima Kingpin carrier. It has a better bend that it uch less likely to scrape the ground if you go up a steep incline or curb. I initially had a thule that stuck out way too far and it would scrape all the time.

Not only do I have the ChaseRace hitch, but I just had Doug install a roll bar in my car. He does good work.

 

Yup, I didn't ride as much as I wanted to this summer, but the hitch was great. I put an Allen carrier on there, which for $135 was definitely worth it. It does stick out a bit, though, so you have to be careful.

Anyway, when you drop the hitch off the car, the attachments are invisible. Great system.

See my signature.

 

Fantastic! I'm starting to love this forum more and more!

I'll purchase the ChaseRace hitch and have it sent over to me and when I'm back in Canada at Christmas I'll pick up the Yakima Kingpin rack.

Hey Knlg,

Nice Kestrel!

Thanks for posting the pictures as it's exactly the setup I'm looking for my road race bike.

Muchly appreciated.
