I bought a 2" version which is still on my LEAF, even though my bike rack was 1.25". That was easily solved with a small adapter sleeve from Harbor Freight. Go for the 2". :-)darelldd wrote:Sadly, I'm not interested in the 2" receiver as I long ago standardized everything on 1.25. Even if you had a box of the raw parts banging around, I can weld it up myself. It's sourcing and making all those bits that I don't enjoy much. If there's no chance for 1.25", I will stop bugging you and move along.

Re: Leaf Quick Release Hitch for bike racks or cargo
Thanks for the input. I can easily adapt my racks, or the receiver. I just wish not to. I want minimalist. Starting with the larger, heavier 2" and then adding an adapter isn't my "style." :-)lemketron wrote: I bought a 2" version which is still on my LEAF, even though my bike rack was 1.25".

Hmmm... I'm glad it is offered at 2". So easy to adapt to smaller if necessary.

I like the fact that the 2" receiver can be removed when not in use so one is not carrying the extra weight. I have one of the early versions.

Re: Leaf Quick Release Hitch for bike racks or cargo
Hopefully this is a quick question that I did not see in this thread. With proper installation, how much weight can this support on a cargo rack?
Best regards,
Joe

Can you PM me a price for the 2" receiver?

Re: Leaf Quick Release Hitch for bike racks or cargo
I have a Bill Davis QR hitch for a 2012 LEAF I just removed from a lease return. In SF East Bay, if someone wants to come pick it up it is yours for $100 or make me an offer. This is a 2" receiver version. (Totally unsure if it could be modified for later year models, but I'm not sure why not.)
