Kuat Racks Sherpa 2.0-2 Bike Rack

Please read it carefully before buying. An amazing bike rack with a strong frame and sturdy wheels. The vehicle is attached to the easy-to-use system and the easy-to-use system is tightened Whenever you reach for the hitch stabilizer, no movement takes place. Carefully open the box as the contents are carefully packed in such a way that the box will serve as a platform for assembly. In total, there are only 4 bolts, 5 washers, and 1 nut to attach, but without the box it would be hard to screw everything in place. In addition to that, everything else is made from sturdy steel tubing, which is cut precisely to lock As a result, it can be assembled by one person. Here's one thing to watch out for There's a step in the instructions where detailed instructions tell you how to install and tighten the long bolts that hold the platforms to the main crossbar, before inserting a bolt below in a I had a hard time inserting this third bolt once the long bolts had been tightened. It took me approximately one minute to install the second bolt through the rail holder after loosening everything up, backing off the rear tray holder, and then back off the third bolt. While turning the bolt helped to make it easier to get it all the way through, it was tight. Some of the one-offs I saw had the following characteristics There have been reviews that claim the bolt holes don't line up, and according to what I've seen, this is due to following the instructions
Kuat makes highly durable parts for this rack that make it stand head and shoulders above most similar racks. A level below their NV 2 flagship model, this rack occupies a space below There are two rows on this rack, unlike the one on the previous page The rack does not have the option of adding a third or fourth bike carrier, or the somewhat gimmicky repair stand. It also does not have built-in cables there is only one lock (usable with the same hitch lock keys) and an included external cable. However, there is one positive it is substantially cheaper and. . . more importantly (to me), it is less bulky, making it less of a chore to use As of now, the bike weight limit is 40 pounds per bike, and the limit for the driver is Typically, you can carry two bikes of nearly any size with 5" between them, with the exception of some particularly heavy electric bikes There are bicycles. This rack had to be able to store my irreplaceable classic bikes without causing any damage, and it had to be able to keep them stable without mounting Compared to my 1" receiver hitch, it is rock solid, and does not The following minor complaints are to be addressed Although this hitch includes a built-in stabilizer, the locking hitch pin does not lock, so it can rattle (a rubber band can reduce this problem). I prefer a rack that rides a bit low to the ground, a couple of inches lower at the back than the standard 2-rail rack The bike NV 2 is ready for use! There are some people who will not like it. For those who are really into off-roading For off-roading, this rack will most likely hang a little low and stick out quite a bit. If you want racks with high ground clearance for offroad adventures, 1Up USA makes racks that will work for you. This rack is a great choice for those seeking a solid bike rack that will hold up to some abuse while protecting their bikes.

The Kuat Sherpa 2 is what I got. There is no hitch rack available in pearl for a 2" receiver hitch. My first purchase was a Thule T2 Pro bike rack, but this did not work on the Highlander because I had to measure the distance between the hitch pin (center) and the end of the hitch. A minimum of 1 must be reached before Thule can begin. The number five. second version of Kuat Sherpa 2 has been released. Designed elegantly and constructed beautifully, the 0 rack is the perfect addition to your home. Aluminum construction and lightweight make it a much better rack than the Thule T2Pro. When I use it with two Trek road bikes (Domane and Silque) it positions them far enough apart so that there is no interference between them. There is no need to move the seat or rack. The rack folds down so that you are free to unload the bikes without having to move the hatchback I've tested this on the Highlander and it works great. There are folds in it In order to reduce the total size of the rack, it folds up behind the back hatch to minimize the overall height Using this method, I can strap the rack to the vehicle then park it in the garage. I have looked at a number of premium racks, and this is the best for my needs.

Knowing what I know now, I will not purchase this in the future. I had a Sherpa 1 with me. The version 0 I used for six years was great and I highly recommend it It is of top quality, reliable, and it has no issues. To get my hands on the Sherpa 2, I was really excited. The pros are Please note - The bike rack holds two bikes

The cons are Please note - The 0*br- Always keep a spare lock in your car* as a backup. When the locking mechanism malfunctions, it may take several minutes to unlock. In an assembly, depending on whether the bolt holes align, it can take 20 minutes or 3 hours. It is necessary to use a rubber hammer. Please note - Hyundai Santa Fe is not compatible with this rack. As far as cars go, it seems like one of the more common types, and it has a I have a Santa Fe and the 0 worked well, but the 2 did not. This rack is folded back so that the arm of the holder and rear tire strap are about 4 inches from the exhaust pipe when fully folded. It took more than a month to get Kuat to resolve a problem with these cheap plastic parts and it took about 2 weeks for it to melt. There were no fewer weeks ago, almost to the point of being unusable, but too late for the Amazon return period. I am sorry about that! B)0*0*0 - The new model costs just $150 more, and it seems far better in My desire is to have something that will last for several years of constant use, and I am not at all confident that the Sherpa 2 will be able to do that. This is why 0 is so useful.
