The Kuat Sherpa 2.0 is an all-aluminum, tray-style hitch rack that carries two bikes. Each tray holds a bike weighing up to 40 pounds. Ratcheting arms grip the tires only, so nothing touches the frame or paint. The cradles fold up and down for loading and for storage.
A foot-assisted pivot lets you drop the rack to reach the trunk without unloading the bikes. The adjustable ratchet arm releases and secures with one hand. Bikes sit 14 inches apart, which reduces the risk of pedal contact. A semi-integrated external cable lock secures the bikes, and a matching keyed hitch lock is included.
It comes in 1.25" and 2" hitch sizes and fits cars, trucks, SUVs, vans and flat-towed vehicles. It accepts tires up to 3" wide and works with road, mountain and gravel bikes. Assembly is required, and an assembly video is available.
