Does the Transfer V2 fit a 1.25-inch hitch?

It is offered in both 1.25-inch and 2-inch versions, so check which receiver your vehicle has before ordering. The 2-inch version supports the three-bike add-on.

Can I carry a third bike?

Yes, with the Transfer V2 add-on, which brings capacity to three bikes. The add-on is sold separately and adds weight to the rack.

Will it fit fat bikes?

Yes. The trays and hooks accommodate wide tires, and the rack is rated for heavier e-bike and fat-bike loads within its per-bike limit.

Can I open my hatch with bikes loaded?

The rack tilts away from the vehicle, which gives access to most rear hatches and tailgates. For full swing-away clearance you need the Pivot add-on.

Does it come with a lock?

It includes a semi-integrated cable lock for the bikes. It secures the rack to the hitch as well, but it is a deterrent rather than a heavy-duty lock.

How does it compare with the Kuat NV?

The Transfer V2 is the simpler, heavier steel option with basic hooks. The NV adds a built-in repair stand, sturdier arms and a more refined finish at a higher tier.
