Rotating Arms with Ratcheting Wheel Hooks
The Sherpa has ratcheting hooks that grab your bikes firmly by the front wheel - not the frame. It's perfect for carrying carbon bikes or bikes with a custom paint job. To load a bike, simply place your front wheel in the cradle, rotate the arm up and over the wheel, and press down firmly on the ratcheting hook.
Folding Front-Wheel Cradles
The large, folding front-wheel cradles accommodate most bike wheels. The hinged cradles flip up to hold your wheels in place and fold down so they're out of the way when the rack is folded up against your vehicle. There is a hook-and-loop strap on each cradle that wraps around the tray and through the spokes of your wheel to hold the wheel in place. You can also use the straps to secure the cradles flat so they don't flop around when the rack is in the stored position.
Pivoting Rear-Wheel Cradles with Ratcheting Straps
The pivoting rear-wheel cradles self-adjust to accommodate your bike's wheelbase. Set your bike's rear wheel into the cradle and it will automatically adjust to grip your wheel at the optimal angle. Use the ratcheting strap to secure your wheel to the cradle.
Foot Lever for Easy Tilting and Folding
The spring-loaded foot lever is easily accessible even with your bikes loaded. No more crawling through your bikes or squeezing between the rack and the vehicle to hit the tilt release lever.
The foot lever lets you tilt the rack down with bikes loaded for cargo area access. It leaves both hands free so that you can lower the rack in a controlled manner. When the rack is unloaded you can fold it up for storage.
Tool-Free Installation With Anti-Rattle Device
The knob at the front of the shank lets you quickly and easily install the rack. Just slide the shank into your hitch and turn the knob until snug. The knob deploys an anti-rattle wedge inside the shank to help take play out of the hitch connection. The locking hitch pin has an Allen tool on the end that further tightens the hand knob if you are still experiencing rattle after hand-tightening.
Complete Security for Bikes and Rack
The Sherpa 2.0 includes locks to secure your bikes to the rack and the rack to your vehicle. The 1/4" thick cable threads around your bike frames, passes through the cable's looped latch tip, and inserts into the lock on the outside bike tray. Coil up the cable and store it in your vehicle or bike bag when it's not in use.
To lock the rack to your hitch, simply insert the hitch pin and connect the lock to the end of the pin. The locks are keyed alike so you can use the same keys for both locks.

No buyer’s remorse here! After quite a bit of reading and comparing, I have no regrets about purchasing the Kuat Sherpa 2.0. Excellent product, great quality. I would purchase all over again. It is a solid rack that is esthetically impressive to boot.
by: Dick H03/11/2017
Really impressed by the quality. Some minor assembly required but the factory has made assembly very easy. The rack is very sturdy & the hitch tightening assembly works really well. The rack positioning also works flawlessly and is solid. Yes it is an expensive rack but you get what you pay for here. Of course eTrailers shipping page keeps you abreast of where your package is located as it makes its way to you. As soon as UPS drops the package off at your door its immediately reflected on your orders shipping page. So you dont have to wait at home for it to arrive. Just check eTrailers online shipping page & you know when it has arrived.

The quality of this rack is outstanding. I had a Saris super clamp ex and had to take it back for other reasons not related to quality and this rack by Kuwat is a better built higher quality rack and ease of operations is much better than the Saris. The attention to quality is evident right out of the box with the assembly process. You will be highly satisfied with this purchase!

Great bike rack
Really nice design. Easy to assembly
Thanks Etrailer and Thanks Kuat
by: Lee10/15/2021
I purchased this product at the height of the pandemic and it took approximately 3-4 months to arrive. Once assembled, it turned out that a critical metal component of the rack had an apparent manufacturing/sizing defect that prevented proper assembly. I was impressed with Kuat's customer service, which requested I send photos of the suspect part and which ultimately resulted in the replacement of a large segment of the rack, the individual cost of which was approximately 25% of the overall purchase price. Since that replacement, the rack has worked flawlessly. Sometimes one has to chalk up a bad experience to the slim odds of a manufacturing defect, which occurred here. However, once examined, Kuat more than satisfied. But for the delays occasioned by the defect, would otherwise rate 5 stars.

Excellent. No issues, nor do I anticipate any in the future!
by: Marty 07/07/2023
Price was great and it arrived way sooner than I expected. I also bought a hitch for my CRV and it went on without a problem. Will soon order a hitch for my new Honda Passport.
by: Kenneth 10/24/2021
Have assembled the hitch, very easy, but have not used it yet with the bikes. Will do so as soon as the weather improves for bike riding.
High quality product that looks good and should provide many years of excellent service.
Impressed with the light weight that is easy to move around. Significant improvement over past hitches which were very heavy and difficult for one person to install.

Have used the Kuat hitch now for over a year. Love the quality and good looks of the hitch as well as the light weight and ease of installation. Getting ready for our annual trip to FL for several months and many road trips in FL which will involve our electric bikes and our Kuat hitch.
by: Bob Mc07/23/2017
The quality of the constructed parts and ease of use is excellent and justifies the cost of this bicycle carrier. Only gave 4 stars, because I had to disassemble the it some by loosing two bolts, to get the bolt I was to install to line up with the hole. This added about seven to ten minutes more to assemble time. In all there is only four bolts to be installed. The directions and on line video made it easy, except for the one bolt I had the issue with. Like the fact it is not black, but pearl white; nice on sunny 90 degree day to not burn the fingers. Excellent Made in America quality product!

Great product, both my wife and I like how easy it installs, and tighten into the hitch receiver nice and snug, no raddling. Holds the bikes nice and snug too. We get compliments on the pearl white color of the bike rack.
by: Greg M12/06/2021
Quality product, good design/engineering, and works well with my mountain bikes, road bikes and ebikes with fenders. Like the quick bike mounting, integrated cable lock, easy to use knob for tightening the rack into the receiver hitch. I switched to a hitch rack with a new vehicle purchase after twenty years of a roof rack system. They each have their pluses and minuses but this Sherpa 2.0 seems to be a quality product after one year of use. I’d recommend the NV model for heavier ebike loads. Etrailer customer service, quick delivery and price makes them a go to vendor.
by: Bill 12/07/2020
Quick delivery and packaged well. This is sturdy, designed and built well. It was easy to assemble with the instructions as well as YouTube videos online. It holds the bikes safely and securely. The Pearl white color is an awesome contrast to my blue Tesla with white interior.

Exceeds my expectations. I’ve gotten many compliments and recommended it to others.
by: Mike R12/09/2021
Love this hitch rack! Its very easy to load the bikes on and is very stable in the hitch (no wobbling or rattles).
And it’s light enough for my wife to pick up and install by herself when she’s riding with her friends.
Highly recommend!

I usually don't write too many product reviews, BUT I compulsively read them all the time in detail before purchasing items! This time I decided to return the favor to mankind and write a review for the Kuat Sherpa 2.0. I just LOVE IT! I had a problem assembling it - spent about 15 hours trying to put it together along with lots of additional help but it was impossible. The company paid for us to take it in to our local bike shop to fix it. So I was happy.
I am a petite 5'2" woman and not very strong and I am able to carry and put this rack into the hitch and load and strap my bike/bikes all by myself with relative ease!!! Which is exactly what i needed in a bike rack! I have had this rack for one year and have taken my bikes on this rack all over and they are secured extremely well. I also like that it has a bike lock/chain that is incorporated in the rack - so I didn't need to buy a separate lock! It also uses the same key that locks the bike rack to the hitch! So no juggling of two keys! I don't think there is anything else that I could have asked for in this rack that they could improve on and this says a lot coming from quite a fastidious consumer!
It also looks very sleek and stylish and goes very well with my white Nissan murano! Added bonus!!! I love it!

We still love this bike rack and it still works as well as when first used. Contacting me a year later to check truly conveys to me this company has a vested interest in their customers.

by: David05/07/2018
Very fast to mount and unmount the bike. I never remove the rack from the SUV - I can easily open the back doors by lowering the rack. Its been flawless. Never rattles. Supports the bikes by the wheels, not the frame. I have carbon frame bikes and don't worry about them even when driving over bumpy roads.

Its great. Works well. No Issues. Just yesterday, I recommended a neighbor but his rack from etrailer.com.

Well made, easy to assemble, easy loading and unloading of bikes, white rack matches my vehicle nicely.
by: Robert 10/22/2020
Thanks to etrailer reviews and customer service we selected the Kuat Sherpa 2.0 pearl for our white Porsche SUV. The rack was easy to assemble and attach to our hitch. Bikes feel very secure. The color matches well to our car - interesting change from basic black. Etrailer kept me updated with status of order (was on back order due to high demand) and followed up post delivery.
by: Cliff05/06/2022
Great looking! Easy to install, easy to use, I really like it being light.
by: Mark L08/04/2021
This Kuat Sherpa 2.0 bike rack is actually really awesome. It's super sturdy and holds the bikes well. I was worried about it feeling wobbly, but it's not. Really glad with the purchase.
by: Kathleen09/25/2019
After ordering one rack that did not work out, I had a great conversation with Tommy C who guided me to the Kuat Sherpa rack. BINGO!!! Exactly what I needed. I had a hitch installed and put the rack on. I will say it was very difficult for me to assemble. I ended up calling a friend to help me. Once it was assembled it’s been a breeze to use. I can easily put it on by myself. I would’ve given 5 stars if the assembly had been easier.
by: Glenn 12/09/2020
Bought the Kuat Sherpa 2.0 based on videos comparing this to other racks. The rack arrived in well thought out packaging and was easy to assemble with all tools provided in packaging. Love the clean lines and ease of use. Looking forward to putting this to good use.
by: James07/12/2019
This is a sturdy, well engineered product. The shipping box acts as the assembly platform, making the assembly a snap. The rack fits perfectly in the hitch and the bikes are easy to mount. The bikes are held snuggly in place. The rack is expensive, but worth the money. One note, when folded up, it can interfere with the rear backup camera on our Jeep, which is not a big issue with me.
by: Corey 08/16/2020
Very nice bike rack. I purchased the white (pearl) one. It matches my truck. Get lots of compliments. Easy to put on and very light yet strong. I recommend this bike rack. It does not put pressure on your frame. The bike sit on it and the clamps hold the tires down.
by: Cathy 08/24/2018
This bike rack is great! Light weight and easy to get on and off of our car or truck and with the foot pedal we can move it out of the way with the bikes on it and still raise the door on the back of our Subaru. It is easy to load the bikes on the rack and secure them with the folding arms and straps on the rack.

- Can Kuat Sherpa 2.0 Bike Rack be Used With Hitch Adapter on 2 Inch Stealth HitchI checked with Kuat, and they specify not to use any type of hitch extension or adapter with the Sherpa 2.0. So I can't recommend using one, but if you take a look at the dimensions I provided for the rack, you can see that the platform does have a good amount of rise from its shank. So unless you were going up a very steep driveway with a curb, for example, then there won't be any issues using it with your Tesla's Stealth Hitches Hidden Rack Receiver # 391TES317. The Sherpa 2.0 really...

- Recommended Bike Rack and Trailer Hitch for 2017 Ford ExplorerThe Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # 76034 would be a great choice for your 2017 Ford Explorer, and as far as a locking pin is concerned, you would only need one for the bike rack, and would not need need an additional one; any decent bike rack will have a hitch lock available and since you are (wisely) concerned with quality, the rack I think you'll really like is going to have that feature. I strongly recommend checking out the Kuat Sherpa 2.0, which comes in your choice...
view full answer... - Will Hitch Mounted Bike Carrier Interfere With Back up Sensors On 2017 Subaru ForesterWhen you use any hitch mounted accessory like a bike or cargo carrier in your trailer hitch, it will likely set the backup sensors off. If the rack does not set the sensors off, the bikes probably will. You may have a setting that allows you to mute the sensors when you are carrying bikes. When choosing any accessory for your Forester you want to make sure you have enough clearance at the back of the vehicle. I have attached a helpful article that explains how you can measure to make sure...

The best option for this that has everything you need is the Kuat Sherpa 2.0. You will be able to fold it up with the use of its foot pedal, and it does have an anti-rattle that you use with just the turn of a knob at the front of the rack. You'll just put the Sherpa 2.0 in your hitch, turn the knob, and an anti-rattle...
view full answer... - Can Kuat Sherpa 2.0 Bike Rack Carry Two Fat Bikes that Weigh Less than 40 lbsThe Kuat Sherpa part # SH22P bike rack can carry fat bike tires up to 4.8 inches in width if you use the Phat Tire Adapter kit part # APBK. Without this adapter the max tire width it can be used with is 3 inches. The rack has a 40 lb per bike capacity so as long as yours weigh 40 or less like you mentioned you'd be good.

Take a look at the Kuat Sherpas, # SH22G for gray, # SH22B for black, and # SH22P for pearl. Since you mentioned that your current rack is rusting I have purposely selected these racks because they are aluminum and are not susceptible to corrosion and they hold the bikes at the wheels only so no frame contact. And it doesn't hurt that they are well within your budget. I have also included a picture showing all the...

- Recommended Hitch for a Bike Rack on a 2022 Subaru Outback Wagon.The best hitch for your 2022 Subaru Outback Wagon, that is also compatible with the Kuat Sherpa 2.0 Bike Rack item # SH22P, is going to be the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver item # C67JR. This hitch has a 2" receiver and a 600 lbs tongue weight capacity which will be more than sufficient for your bike rack. The reason I recommend this hitch over the others is its ground clearance and subtle presence. This hitch mounts directly behind your bumper. The only part that extends below your car is...

For overall ease of installation, the way both racks install is exactly the same - you just insert the rack into your hitch, turn the knob at the front of the rack, put the locking hitch pin in and you're done. The biggest difference in the ease of installation is going to be that the Sherpa 2.0 is lighter...

- Bike Rack and Hitch Recommendation for 2018 Honda CRVThe Kuat Sherpa 2.0 part # SH22P is a really solid choice for a bike rack that I would recommend highly for your 2018 Honda CR-V. It's really well made, easy to use, and lightweight so I think you'll really like it. Bike racks all somewhat obscure the license plate of vehicles but it's really not a problem. Most police officers aren't going to mind unless they happen to see you doing something else they have a problem with. For example I've had a cargo carrier on my Tahoe for years that...

The Sherpa 2.0 comes in three colors to choose from: gray # SH22G, black # SH22B, and pearl # SH22P.

- Can the Kuat Sherpa 2.0 Be Used On the Back Of a Towed VehicleA bike rack installed on the rear of a toad vehicle is going to experience more side to side sway than normal. Luckily, the Kuat Sherpa 2.0 2-Bike Platform Rack part # SH22P is rated for this excess sway. In fact, Kuat has stated that all of their bike racks are rated for flat tow use.

- Which Sherpa Bike Rack Solution Has Better Ground Clearance the 2 inch or 1-1/4 inch VersionThe 1-1/4 inch version of the Kuat Sherpa part # SH12P does have more rise built into the shank of the rack than the 2 inch version part # SH22P. If you used a sleeve style hitch adapter you would have some noticeable movement between the rack and the hitch. It wouldn't be crazy but it depends on how stable you want the rack and the hitch. For an adapter then you'd want the part # HT02 if that is the route you want to go with the EcoHitch # 306-X7322. We really can't endorse or give advice...

- Best Easy-to-Use Bike Rack for Women As a small 5'2" woman myself, I understand the need for a bike rack that I can use. Hitch mounted bike racks are ALWAYS the best way to go, no matter what, since they're sturdier, easier, and usually have a higher weight capacity. Try to get a platform rack since they have less bike-to-bike contact and you don't have to lift as much. First, you'll need a hitch. Ideally, you want a 2" hitch like # e98847 since that's the most common size for bike racks. Next, the bike rack options. There's...

Let me start off, since you mentioned 3-bike rack, if that's what you were after you would need the Kuat Transfer V2 Bike Rack for 3 Bikes # KU24FR because the Sherpa doesn't have that option. That said, between the 2-bike versions of these racks, one advantage of the Transfer V2 is its weight capacity; it has a 60 lb per-bike capacity vs. the Sherpa 2.0's 40 lb per-bike capacity....

The actual locking mechanism is built into the hitch pin and bike cables. The hitch pin is solid steel so it's not easily broken and the lock core itself is very durable. I don't recall of any accounts where security was an issue with this rack. The fact of the matter is that no lock is theft-proof, it's usually the presence of a lock that deters thieves...

If so, you'll be able to use it without any clearance issues. The Sherpa does come with a hitch and bike cable lock so no need to buy them separate. I like the pearl color on the Sherpa 2.0 # SH22P but it comes in black # SH22B and Grey # SH22G. One attachment I like using with the Sherpa is the Pivot # PVP20B swing away system.

The reason for that is because there is 14 inches of space from center to center of where the bikes mount. So even if you have a pair of mountain bikes with long handlebars the bikes will not make any contact or rub up against each other in any...
