Excellent rack - rock solid, holds bike without wobbling. Fits 2021 Toyota Rav4 XLE with Toyota Hitch perfectly. Easy to tilt up and down (but it takes 2 hands to do so, which is a little annoying). At the risk of stating the obvious, it is a little annoying to leave it on all the time - I don't like leaving it horizontal for fear that a car will clip it when driving, so I keep it in the raised position.. But this means that I have to lower it every time I want to access my hatch. Lock works well also. The kids bike adapter seems to work fine (only tried once).

One downer - some of the fasteners are already rusting a little (see pic), and I've only had it on my car for 3 months (May to August in PA).

This product should not be left on the hitch all of the time. Leaving it on will cause excessive rust. Please view page 17 of the manufacturers User Guide under tips and tricks to see how to get the most life out of your bike rack: https:www.kuat.comwp-contentuploadsnv-2-user_guide.pdf

Delivered quickly. Product is as advertised. Best pricing I found anywhere. The rack took ~1 hr to assemble - a bit challenging to figure out but got easier as it progressed. It takes <5 mins to attach this to the base unit rack while mounted on car. This speed of install will make it easier to change between 2 and 4 bike arrangements as needed. Note: the integrated locks have a different key than base unit - will now need to keep a pair of keys handy. Not a huge fan of the integrated locking gizmos - they work but are awkward to engage, these could be designed better for easier use it seems.

Not great, but okay. The locking mechanisms for the cable locks are garbage - they slip out of the ‘holsters’ and drag on the ground and 2 are hence ruined. The overall ability to convert from 2 to 4 bikes with ease is nice, but the locks get zero stars. For as expensive as this rack is, these should be better designed.



by:

First off Etrailer Corp. did a fantastic job with my order. Not only did I get a very good deal. Etrailer Corp went beyond that and quick shipped my order. Carrier assembly was four bolts to install and tightened and the carrier was ready to use. This is the best carrier for anyone that wants a safe way to carry their extra bikes. This easily attaches to my Kuat base carrier to carry additional two bikes. And it is easily comes back off with the removal of two bolts and lock. No more frame scratches and the quickest way to mount or dismount in seconds. You can load and unload in under a minute! Would recommend to anyone.



by:

Kuat makes the best bike racks and their customer service is top notch. Full stop.

Oh, also, etrailer.com comes through with great prices!



by:

This bicycle carrier is fantastic! It takes seconds to secure the bicycle to the vehicle and it is very secure. The addition allows 4 bikes and does protrude from the back of the vechicle a bit, but overall a very secure and an easy carrier. Although a bit more expensive than others, this trailer will probably last the for years to come. Etrailer was less expensive than others with free shipping and delivery was very prompt. Will use them again.



by:

The rack is well made and as sturdy as you would expect from a great company like Kuat. I discovered that I actually have the standard rack instead of the Base, however, other than the finish (this extension is matte black, the standard is gloss), it bolts together perfectly and works fine. Amazing customer service from etrailer as always!



by:

I love the rack! Working with E-Trailer was seamless. The best part was despite the delay in shipping from Kuat due to Covid they kept my order in active status so that when it was available I didn't have to do anything. Thank you!

Super solid build. A little tricky to assemble with the bolts since it's so heavy, but with two people it's a 30 minute job.

  • Can the Kuat Sherpa 2.0 Bike Rack Carry a Bike with a 48 Wheelbase
    Since the max wheelbase of the Kuat Sherpa 2.0 # SH22B is 47" your bike with a 48" wheelbase won't fit but I do have a different recommendation for you. The Kuat NV 2.0 Base # BA22B is the next step up to the Sherpa 2.0 in regards to Kuat bike racks and it is compatible with your 48" wheelbase. The NV 2.0 Base also comes with bike and rack locks, is a wheel mount platform rack, and has the tilting/folding functions along with the anti-rattle knob at the front of the base assembly. The...

  • What Do You Recommend for Fitting Four Bikes Securely on a 2016 Subaru Outback?
    I have a solution for you. You are right when you mention that the Kuat NV 2.0 Two-Bike Add-On # BA02B will get you close (if not over) to the 200 pound maximum weight capacity of your 2016 Subaru Outback with 4 bikes plus the Kuat NV 2.0 Bike Rack # NV22B. In order to have the safety of your adult bikes with a platform rack without having to mount extra bikes on the roof, I recommend the Saris Freedom Bike Rack for 4 Bikes - 2" Hitches - Frame Mount - Tilting # SA4414B. This is a solid...

    Yes! The Access Ramp for Kuat NV 2.0 Bike Rack # ANVBRB does in fact fit the: -Kuat NV 2.0 Base Bike Rack for 2 Bikes # BA22B. This access ramp also fits the: NV 2.0 # NV22G and the NV 2.0 2-bike add-on # BA02B.

  • What is Difference Between Kuat NV 2.0 and NV 2.0 Base
    The Kuat NV 2.0 2 Bike Platform Rack, # NV22G, and the Kuat NV 2.0 Base 2-Bike Platform rack, # BA22B. are both very similar bike racks. Both racks can be expanded to a 4-bike rack, # NA22G add-on for the NV 2.0 and # BA02B for the NV 2.0 Base, and both racks have very similar specs. The NV 2.0 # NV22G does include one major feature over the base, the bike repair stand. If you've ever been out at the track/trail and wished you had a bike stand to make working on the bike easier this would...

  • Best Bike Rack That Can Carry 2 Or 4 Bikes
    There is a 2 Bike version of the Saris Freedom 4 # SA4412B and I've included a video of me using it! You can either get the 2 bike version or the 4 bike version, one cannot convert into the other. If you're looking to have a 2 bike rack that can turn into a 4 bike rack I would recommend getting the Kuat NV 2.0 Base # BA12B and get the 2 bike add on # BA02B if you wanted to carry 4 bikes! The add-on can be taken off just as easy as it was put on so your not stuck with only a 2 or 4 bike...

  • Trailer Hitch Recommendation for Carrying a Bike Rack with a 2018 Subaru Crosstrek
    For some reason Subaru likes to tell people that aftermarket trailer hitches will cause extra damage to their vehicle if it were in an accident and the fact of the matter is that is just not true. From what we have been told the extra material of an aftermarket hitch will actually help to give the vehicle more rigidity. Since you are wanting an OEM look I highly recommend the EcoHitch Stealth # 306-X7365 because it gives you a 2" receiver that you can remove in the event that you want your...

  • Expandable Platform Bike Rack Recommendation
    The Küat NV 2.0, part # BA22B does indeed offer add-ons that allow you to carry additional bikes. The one bike add-on is part # KU97FR and the 2 bike add-on is part # BA02B. The base rack includes an integrated hitch and cable lock, and with the addition of the # APBK adapter, the rack can carry fat bikes with tires up to 4-3/4 inches wide. Küat is definitely my favorite rack manufacturer. The racks are designed by folks that are riding enthusiasts who build bike racks that have features...

  • Comparing Kuat Sherpa 2.0 vs Kuat NV Base 2.0 Bike Racks
    The Kuat Sherpa 2.0 # SH22B and NV 2.0 Base # BA22B bike racks are both excellent bike racks but in my opinion the NV 2.0 just edges out the Sherpa 2.0 due to a few key features. As-is the Sherpa 2.0 can handle 40 lb bikes with a max wheelbase of 47" while the NV 2.0 Base can handle 60 lb bikes with a max wheelbase of 50". Looking past that though you can't do much else with the Sherpa 2.0 but you have the option for a variety of add-ons for the NV 2.0 Base: Phat Bike Adapter Kit - #...

  • Best Bike Rack Hitch for 2018 Lexus NX 300H
    For your 2018 Lexus NX 300h I recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C13337 class 3 hitch. This hitch will allow you to be able to carry more accessories and handle the weight better when loading 4 bikes. The only 4 bike racks that use a 1-1/4" receiver are hanging racks. The 2" receiver is what you will need for your Kuat NV 2.0 Bike Rack # NV22G (Gunmetal Gray), # BA22B (Matte Black), or # NV22B (Metallic Black). The 2" racks are the only racks that are able to accommodate the...

  • Expanding a Kuat NV 2.0 Base Trailer Hitch Receiver Bike Rack
    The Kuat Base NV 2.0, part # BA22B actually has its own add on kit as part # BA02B. According to Kuat, the parts are not compatible between the NV 2.0 and the Base NV 2.0. I've included a video review of the Base rack so you can see how it works.

  • Subaru 2003 Forester Hitch Installation and Platform Style 4-Bike Rack Recommendation
    It's not necessary to use a lift to install a hitch on your Forester, but if you have or can borrow ramps or jack stands from somebody, it will make the installation much easier. If that's not an option, we offer some fairly inexpensive ramps as part # FT11909MI or jack stands as part # PTW41021. Either the Curt # C12038 or the Draw-Tite # 36311 would work fine for you. They install in the same manner, and have identical capacities. Both install with standard metric wrenches or sockets...

  • Best Trailer Hitch for 2015 Honda Odyssey to Carry Kuat NV 2.0 Bike Rack
    That is a great question and the best hitch for your 2015 Honda Odyssey for your bike rack is the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C13068. The reason this hitch is the best option for your '15 Odyssey to carry the Kuat NV 2.0 2-Bike Platform Rack # NV22G with 2-Bike Add-On # NA22G (or the Kuat NV 2.0 Base 2-Bike Platform Rack # BA22B with 2-Bike Add-On # BA02B, which is the same rack but just without the integrated bike repair stand) is because the Curt gives you the best bumper clearance...

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch And Bike Rack For Heavy E-Bikes On A 2020 Kia Sportage
    Yes, you can certainly carry two E-bikes on the back of your 2020 Kia Sportage. I recommend installing the etrailer class 3 hitch # e89YR. This hitch has a 525 lb tongue weight capacity so more than enough for 2 heavy bikes and a bike rack. The hitch has a durable matte black powder coat, however it will be mostly hidden behind the bumper. If you are in the market for a bike rack also, I recommend the Kuat NV 2.0 # BA22B. This is made for heavier bikes and can carry 2 bikes weighing...

    Yes, you will be able to cover the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # DT38MR once it is installed on your 2019 Dodge Durango. The photo you are referencing is from the linked installation video of this trailer hitch on a 2017 Durango.

  • Recommended Bike Rack For Expanding From 2 Bike To 4 Bikes
    I do have a recommendation for you as the Saris SuperClamp EX Bike Rack for 2 Bikes # SA4025F is not expandable for 3 or 4 bikes. We have the Kuat NV 2.0 Base Bike Rack # BA22B that is rated to carry 2 bikes up to 60lbs each. You can add the 2-Bike Add-On # BA02B to increase capacity to 4 bikes. When you move to the 4 bike rack capacity is limited to 40lbs per bike. We also have it listed as the 4 Bike Rack # BA22B-BA02B so you can see what it looks like together and only have to order 1 item.

  • Carrying An E-Bike On A 1 1/4" Hitch Receiver
    Yes, there is an adapter that would change a 1 1/4" hitch receiver to a 2" hitch receiver. But will be some limitations. Any adapter you add will reduce the maximum tongue weight of your hitch receiver by 50%. Many 1 1/4" hitch receivers only have a 200lb maximum tongue weight. If that is your situation the maximum tongue weight would only be 100lbs. That means your Kuat NV 2 and the e-bike you want to carry cannot weigh more than 100lbs total. In this instance you might be able to carry...

  • Best Expandable Bike Rack Recommendation for 2020 Ford Explorer Carrying Carbon Frame Bikes
    For carbon framed bikes you need to carry them with a bike rack that only touches the bikes by the tires since the frame material is delicate and easily damaged. So for that you could use the very popular and easy to use Kuat NV part # BA22B which is widely considered to be the best bike rack for carbon bikes. Then when you are ready to expand it to a 4-bike rack you'd just need the part # BA02B and you'd be set.

  • Kuat Bike Rack for 2011 Subaru Outback Wagon
    Yes the Kuat NV 2.0 line of bike racks fits your 2011 Subaru Outback Wagon's 2" hitch including the NV 2.0 Base # BA22B. The 2 bike add on # BA02B converts this to a 4-bike bike rack if you decide later you would like more capacity. The base is very similar to the NV 2.0. The main difference is the Base does not have the built in repair stand, which can be added # TDKB and the matte black finish is different compared to the glossy finish of the NV 2.0.
