  • Our take on the Kuat NV 2.0 Bike Rack

    The Kuat NV 2.0 is a two-bike hitch rack built for heavy use. It carries up to 60 lb per bike and 120 lb total, so it handles e-bikes and downhill rigs that most tray racks can't. The steel frame uses a hand-tightening cam to lock the rack into the hitch, and the arms hold bikes by the front wheel with a ratcheting strap. Reviewers rate it among the sturdiest tray racks made, but it is heavy at 52 lb and costs more than most rivals. It suits riders who shuttle heavy bikes often and want a rack that stays solid on rough roads.

    Questions and answers

    Can the Kuat NV 2.0 carry e-bikes?
    Yes. It is rated for 60 lb per bike and 120 lb total, which covers most e-bikes. Check your bike's weight before loading two heavy ones.
    Does it fit a 1.25-inch hitch?
    Kuat makes the NV 2.0 in both 1.25-inch and 2-inch hitch versions. Buy the version that matches your receiver.
    Can I add a third or fourth bike?
    Yes, with the Kuat NV 2.0 add-on, which extends the rack to carry two more bikes. The add-on is sold separately.
    Does it work with fenders and fat tires?
    The trays fit most tires, but very wide fat tires and full fenders may need the optional fat-bike tray adapters.
    Can I open the trunk with the rack installed?
    The rack tilts away from the vehicle when loaded, which gives access to most hatchbacks and tailgates. Check clearance on low vehicles.
    Is it hard to install?
    Installation is straightforward with the hand-tightening cam, but the rack is heavy, so a second person helps when lifting it into the hitch.
    Where is the Kuat NV 2.0 Bike Rack cheapest?
    At Backcountry, for $989.00, as of our latest check.
    Where can I buy the Kuat NV 2.0 Bike Rack?
    3 stores we checked sell it, including Backcountry, Mike's Bikes, Competitive Cyclist.
