Is Kuat Transfer V2 a Good Bike Rack for 2022 Subaru Outback Wagon and Standard Bikes
Question:
I have a 2022 Subaru Outback with a 2 inch hitch and I have 2 bikes that I would be using, a regular old fashioned womans street bike and a step thru bike. The Kuat Transfer V2 appears to be a good fit. Would you agree or would you have another recommendation?

Expert Reply:
The Kuat Transfer V2 Bike Rack # KU84FR is one of my absolute favorite bike racks so I definitely recommend going that route as long as neither of your bikes has a front fender. Since the ratcheting arm comes down on the tire next to the front forks it would damage a fender.
This rack comes with a cable lock for the bikes but if you'd like to lock the rack to your 2022 Subaru Outback Wagon then you just need the Hitch Lock # HL2.
