Is Kuat NV 2.0 BA22B-BA02B or Inno INH142 Tire Hold Better for 20 Inch Bikes
Question:
I am interested in finding a 4 bike platform rack that handles smaller kids bikes well. Do you think the Inno 4 Bike Tire Hold Rack would hold a kids bike that has a 33inch wheelbase with 20inch tires or would something like the Kuat NV 2.0 do a better job?

The Inno Tire Hold # INH142 4-bike rack will accommodate children't bikes with 20 inch wheels or adult bikes with up to 29 inch wheels. Inno tells me that a 33 inch wheelbase bike will just fit on the rack.
The Kuat NV 2.0 4-bike, part # BA22B-BA02B does not have an adapter for kid's bikes. One huge feature offered by the NV 2.0 is the add-on feature. The rearmost 2-bike portion of the rack is removable, which is handy for when only two bikes need to be carried, and the fact that the rack comes apart makes it easier to handle and store. 4-bike platform racks are heavy, and the ability to break it down into its two components and install it piecemeal is super convenient.
I've linked to product demonstration videos for both racks.
Although the Tire Hold has a cleaner appearance, the fact that it can't be broken down to make handling and install easier would convince me to choose the Kuat NV 2.0, plus the fact that it would do a better job accommodating your children's bikes.
