Does the Sherpa 2.0 fit a 2-inch hitch?

It is sold in 1.25-inch and 2-inch hitch versions, so check which receiver your vehicle has before ordering. The rack is not compatible with the other size without an adapter.

Can it carry e-bikes?

No. Kuat rates it at 40 lbs per bike, so most e-bikes exceed the limit. Use a heavier-duty platform rack for e-bikes.

Will it fit my bike's tires and wheelbase?

It holds tires up to 3 inches wide and wheelbases up to 47 inches. Fat bikes and long-travel downhill bikes may not fit.

Can I open my trunk with the rack on?

Yes, via the foot-actuated tilt, which lowers the rack away from the hatch. It does not swing to the side, so very tight spaces can still be awkward.

Does it come with a lock?

Yes, an integrated cable lock is included to secure bikes to the rack. It does not lock the rack to the hitch, so add a hitch pin lock if you leave it mounted.

How does it compare with the Kuat Transfer?

The Sherpa 2.0 is lighter and folds flatter, while the Transfer is a more budget platform rack with a simpler frame hold. Choose the Sherpa for easier handling and the Transfer for a lower-cost two-bike option.
