Rotating Arms with Ratcheting Hooks
The Transfer V2 has ratcheting hooks that grab your bikes firmly by the front wheel - not the frame. It's perfect for carrying carbon bikes or bikes with a custom paint job. To load a bike, simply place your front wheel in the cradle, rotate the arm up and over the wheel, and press down firmly on the ratcheting hook.
Front-Wheel Cradles with Adjustable Pitch
In its upright position the front cradles sit at the optimal position for holding normal-size bikes. However, you can adjust the cradles so that smaller bikes sit more toward the center of the rack or to prevent bikes from bumping into each other. To adjust the pitch, use the included Allen key to flip the bolt locator tabs upside down.
Pivoting Rear-Wheel Cradles
The rear wheel cradles accommodate a wide variety of bike wheelbases. They pivot front to back, adjusting automatically to each bike's wheelbase - no need for sliding and tightening. Secure the wheels in place with the built-in ratcheting strap. Strap extenders (sold separately) let you carry fat bikes.
U-Shape Frame
Most platform-style racks force you to reach out and over the rack to load your bikes or walk around to the back of the rack to access the bike closest to your vehicle. The U-shaped frame allows you to walk inside the rack and get close to your bikes to lift them. Also, it won't block your backup camera when it's folded up.
Foot Lever for Easy Tilting and Folding
The spring-loaded foot lever is easily accessible even with your bikes loaded. No more crawling through your bikes or squeezing between the rack and the vehicle to hit the tilt release lever.
The foot lever lets you tilt the rack down with bikes loaded for cargo area access. It leaves both hands free so that you can lower the rack in a controlled manner. When the rack is unloaded you can fold it up for storage.
Easy Installation
The rack is easy to install. Just slide the shank into your hitch and use the included 8-mm Allen wrench to tighten the flatlock cam. An anti-rattle wedge is deployed inside the shank to help take play out of the hitch connection.
Complete Security for Bikes and Rack
The Allen wrench has an indentation, so it can only be used with the Transfer. This helps keep the rack secure on your vehicle. You'll need to store it in a safe place because you'll need it when you want to remove the rack. You can also use a locking hitch pin (sold separately) for extra rack security.
The Transfer also includes a cable lock that secures your bikes to the rack. The 1/4" thick, braided steel cable threads through your bike's frames, and locks back into the rack.

This heavy-duty, 2-bike rack is perfect for the serious cyclist and occasional riders. It's safe for carbon frames and has a foot pedal that lets you use both hands to tilt for trunk access and fold for storage.by: 10/15/2022
We love this bike rack. We bought a couple ebikes and needed something we could use behind our travel trailer when camping and the truck when we just want to drive to some trails. When we were looki g, many can't be used behind travel trailers. We absolutely love the way its built - its sturdy, high quality, pretty easy to put together - good instructions. Love the tilting feature - use one foot - very easy. Love that it comes with the cable lock for the bikes, It is very adjustable for a wide range of bikes. We have step throughs. We did buy a hitch lock for extra security. We would recommend this rack to anyone.

This bike rack is great. Two things: it folds up to a pretty slim profile and it’s well made. That said I had trouble getting the first front wheel holder to go on. The inside and outside holes in the frame were not aligned so you couldn’t get the bolt to pass through so I ended up enlarging the outside hole enough to allow the bolt to go through straight and the rest was painless! Another nice point are the tools: they’re actually good enough to keep! This is my second Kuat bike rack and they really handle bikes well. The tilt works great, too. Overall, it’s great pick!
by: M.C.08/06/2023
This review is after a year. Overall this is a good bike rack.
Pros:
-price is fair
-Ease of use
-Bikes remain secure in transit.
Cons.
-Some parts are made of plastic that would be better as aluminum.
-The locking cord is annoying. One time in transit, it got wrapped around the derailleur. On moving the bikes down to open the hatch, the derailleur was damaged when the cord pulled on it, so I needed a new one. I’m not sure why Kuat would not choose to put the lock on the hook that secures the bicycle tire. That would eliminate the need for an annoying cable.
-It would be nice to have a torque wrench included so you are confident you are not over tightening the hex bolt that attaches the rack to the car. You are warned not to over-tighten, so you are left wondering.
-When the rack is pivoted down, Honda CRV 2020 hatchback cannot clear the handlebars on my mountain bike. It is possible to access storage, but the trunk cannot fully open.
Overalll, the low cost and overall quality and ease of use make this a good choice. Some minor tweaks to the design would make this a stellar product. Be carful how you use the cord.
by: Srinivas10/13/2022
The product is great in the beginning. But over time, the spring at the lower end shank is not working and I am having to manually pull and push the gear into the socket when I lower or higher the rack. This is a pain for now but not sure if it will turn into a safety issue.

I am sorry as I do not have a solution that I can offer however I can have Kuat reach out to you.

After the previous spring situation, rack also suffered an immature bolt tightening plate breakage even without regular usage. But, Thanks to Kuat for standing behind their product by sending in a replacement part.

@Srinivas We're sorry that happened, but we're glad to hear that Kuat took good care of you!

The quality of the engineering of every single part of the bike rack was perfect. Every part fit together perfectly. No wiggling or forcing things together.I’m 78 years old. It took me about 30 minutes to put it together. Easy to use and to load the bikes.

Were still loving our Kuat V2 bike rack after a year of use. Easy to load the bikes, love the way it folds up while in the hitch. Keeps it out of the way when we park. The best ever!Holds the bikes perfectly.
by: George 10/05/2023
I really like this bike rack. It was easy to assemble for the most part.
The price was reasonable. It is easy to put on and take off.
The bikes are very stable when fastened correctly.
I would recommend it to anybody with a non E bike type of bicycle.
We no longer have to put our bikes in the rear of our suv.
by: John 07/15/2023
This rack works great! I wish i would have bought it five years ago! Although it is the cheapest of the kuat racks it does everything I need. I considered other racks that didn’t tilt and it is worth the higher cost to go with a tilting rack to get into the back of the SUV. The U shape of the rack is also great ergonomically loading the bikes so there is no bending or stretching to load the first bike. I highly recommend this bike rack it will make your life easier!
by: psyclonudest07/28/2023
Super easy to put together, all tools included, nice burlap sack to store tools in glove box or at home, functions as expected, bike secure at 80mph with high winds, nice and light to put on and remove if necessary. Wish it tilted one more notch/down to the ground as the tailgate of my trail boss will not open all the way. Not a show stopper, but it would be nice to still have bikes secured on the rack while I overland in the back.
by: Allen 08/19/2023
I have been using this hitch for both our E bikes for the last year and love it. It is each to use and really secures the bikes in. Also has a built-in lock. Just took them to Bozeman Montana from Minnesota and it worked great for the long haul.
by: Mollie06/30/2023
Love this hitch. Was easy to put together and it is easy to use. Our bikes ride solid and steady. Switched it from the car to the 5th wheel camper for our trip. It fit perfectly and bikes traveled the same with no issues. The price was great for this unit, arrived promptly and in good shape. Will definiy purchase from etrailer again
by: Jeremy06/16/2023
Bike rack works perfectly and has lots of handy features - pivoting arm so you can open your trunk with the bikes on, cable lock embedded in the rack, adjustable cradles etc. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is the instructions weren't completely clear. I had to reach out to Kuat support because I thought the cradles I was sent didn't line up with the bolt holes. It turns out I was trying to rotate the cradles outside of the rack body, but you can only turn them when they are mounted on the rack arms. I let them know they should improve that aspect of the user manual
by: Doug 08/21/2023
This is the second Transfer rack I have purchased. I converted the first one to a single place rack for on my Miata. This one was for my son's car. Easy to assemble, very easy to use and secure. I only wish Kuat would make a single tray Sherpa rack! (aluminum, it's lighter)
by: Tom03/31/2022
I've just installed my Kuat Transfer V2 and the fact I can easily access the back of my Dodge Caravan with the goal post design, which I think very clever is awesome. The cam lever when tightened with the special allen wrench makes for a very solid fit into the receiver hitch of my van. It looks and feels solid and is easy to use.

I love it! Its easy to use and built very solid.
by: Janice 09/01/2023
I recently got a step through bike (my previous bike had a bar, but it was getting more and more difficult to get on and off it, due to back issues). This bike rack works great with the step through bike, and is very easy to get bike on and off by myself...and it seems very sturdy!
by: Tony D12/06/2022
Love this bike rack. Easy to use and very secure.
by: Paul 05/25/2023
After a year of ownership, I still love this Kuat Transfer V2 Bike Rack (for 2" Hitches).
My experience with etrailer has also been very favorable as with all my interactions with etrailer.
by: Brian 07/02/2023
I saw this bike carrier on another riders car. They are very pleased. I liked the features and quality of engineering design and materials. I found it a bit challenging to assemble. You really have to study the drawings to get every detail, because they use very view words. Once I understudy each step, it seemed easy. My Subaru camera gives a constant warning alarm when in reverse, but I can see past the carrier reasonably well.
by: Ryan08/22/2022
Etrailer made ordering easy. My bike rack came in within a few days of ordering and assembly was a breeze. Kuat packages things up very nicely and includes good quality hardware and tools for assembly.
by: Steve 05/03/2023
The Transfer V2 bike rack is not perfect for every bike. I have front shocks and brakes that are right where the arm comes down to put holding pressure on the front tire, making it not a snug secure fit. I plan to place a folded hand towel across that area and apply the pressure on the towel to protect the brakes and shock structure. Problem solved. It should work fine. I like the three points of contact that hold the bike securely in place. The system to tighten the hitch from moving says not to apply more than 18.5 lbs of torque. I have a tendency to over tighten things, so I'll have to be careful with that.
by: Gerald 09/08/2022
This product is very well made. Installation out of the box is easy. Install in to the trailer hitch goes in smoothly and is very secure, a tool is provided to firm up the rack so there is no movement and remains solid during transport. Bike mounting is so easy and secure the bike never moves in transportation. Best product on the market.
by: Robert10/06/2021
I just built and installed my rack yesterday and I absolutely love it. I drove with it on today (no bikes), amazed that there was no rattle. Tomorrow I do plan to carry a bike to see how that feels. The quality of the product exceeded my expectations! Great value for the price and if this is Kuats Entry Level model, it is worth every penny!
by: Lucas 05/26/2023
I like the rack. I only use it for fat bikes. I wish the straps were longer. The fat bike extension straps are functional, but defiantly an after though.
by: Keith 09/02/2022
Arrived in good time. Well packaged. Looks sturdy, assembled easily w/ all tools included. Have not used it yet but, it's just what was expected so far.

- Will a Rear Rack on a Verve 2 E-Bike Cause Issues When Using the Kuat Transfer V2 Bike Rack?Thanks for the picture! No, it won't. Since that rack is on the back tire on your Verve 2 E-Bike you shouldn't have any issues using the Kuat Transfer V2 Bike Rack item # KU84FR. You will want to stop the clamp short of that fender on your rear wheel.

- E-Bike Rack Recommendation for Pace 500.2 e-bikes at Rear of Travel TrailerThe Kuat Transfer V2 Bike Rack # KU84FR would be a great solution to carry your two Pace 500.2 e-bikes. This rack uses a wheel mount setup so your frame would not be affected in any way. The wheel mount may not have a lot of padding but you don't have to run it all the way against the forks so it wouldn't contact at all. Also I confirmed that this rack has the weight capacity needed for your bikes and this rack is also travel trailer approved so it would work out great in that regard as well.
view full answer... - Can the Wheel Hooks be Reversed on the Kuat Transfer V2 Bike Rack for 2 BikesIn regards to the Kuat Transfer V2 Bike Rack for 2 Bikes part # KU84FR, the wheel hooks cannot be removed or reversed. There is a pin at the top of the upright post which will prevent the wheel hook from being removed and there are only ratchet slots on the outside of the upright posts. I am not sure why you need to remove and reverse the ratchet hooks but if you can let me know, I'd be glad to see if we have any other options.
view full answer... - Hitch Bike Rack Similar to Thule T2 for Rear of Camper TrailerAt the rear of a trailer or RV the ride quality is very rough when compared to the ride quality at the rear of a passenger vehicle. Reason being the suspension isn't as sophisticated and there is a longer distance between the rear axle and the rear of the trailer which exaggerates the movement of the trailer when hitting bumps. Because of that only a few bike racks were designed to be reinforced enough for that type of use. Thule does not recommend the use of their racks at the back of...
view full answer... - Will Kuat Transfer V2 Folded Allow Backup Camera of 2021 Toyota RAV4 to FunctionWith the Kuat Transfer V2 part # KU84FR folded up and installed in the hitch of your 2021 Toyota RAV4 you'd still be able to see behind you through the backup camera. This is such a minimalistic bike rack that has a wide U-shape when folded up that you'd be able to see right down the middle without much issue at all.
view full answer... - Will Bikes Interfere with Rear of Motorhome When Carried on Kuat Transfer V2 Bike RackWe have not had any reports of bike's handlebars hitting the rear of motorhomes like your Class C when using theKuat Transfer bike rack part # KU84FR. Based on that and the fact this rack is confirmed for use at the rear of motorhomes this would work well for you.
view full answer... - Per Bike Weight Capacity of Küat Transfer V2 3-Bike RackThe # KU24FR three bike version of the Küat Transfer V2 has a weight capacity of 40 lbs per bike. As you mentioned, the 2 bike version, part # KU84FR has a 60 lb per bike capacity. The Transfer is an excellent bike rack. The U-shaped frame is my favorite feature, it allows you to stand much closer to the rear of the vehicle when loading the inner-most bike onto the rack, which makes it much easier on your back. The rack includes a cable lock for securing the bikes to the rack. If you...
view full answer... - Will The Kuat Transfer V2 Work With MY Step Through Electric Bike?The Transfer V2 is a good bike rack for your step through electric bike, but you're looking at the 1-1/4" option # KU74FR what you really need is the 2 inch version # KU84FR. This one has a capacity of 60 lbs per bike and will be much better suited for your situation! Check out my review video to learn more about the rack!
view full answer... - Can Kuat Transfer V2 Bike Rack Handle 60 lb e-BikesThe Kuat # KU74FR Transfer V2 that you'd looked at, which is compatible with both 1-1/4 and 2 inch hitches has a 40 lb per bike capacity, so it wouldn't safely carry your e-bikes. However the # KU84FR V2 model which fits 2 inch hitches only, has a 60 lbs per bike capacity, so it will handle 2-60 lb e-bikes with tires up to 3 inches in width. The Transfer is a really nice bike rack, my favorite feature is it's U-Shaped frame, which allows you to stand closer to the back of the vehicle when...
view full answer... - Motorhome Compatible 2-Bike Rack Recommendation For Transporting Two Carbon Frame Mountain BikesFor your Coachman Cross Trail 20XG, I recommend going with the: -Kuat Transfer V2 Bike Rack for 2 Bikes # KU84FR. This bike rack will work great with your 2 carbon mountain bikes with a maximum carrying capacity of 60-lbs per bike, and with this being a wheel mount bike rack, you can be assured your carbon frames are not going to be damaged in transit. Attached is a review video of # KU84FR for you to check out as well.
view full answer... - Recommended Bike Rack for Adult Hybrid Bikes with FendersIf a bike has fenders, you'll want to go with a frame mount style rack. The Hollywood Racks Sport Rider SE Bike Rack part # HLY84FR is an excellent option for this and what I recommend using. It can carry bikes up to 50 lbs and it only weighs 37 lbs. It also can fold up for storage or tilt back for hatch access. It comes with a lifetime warranty.
view full answer... - Recommended Single Bike Rack for a 2017 Honda Accord Transporting an Aventon Pace 3.0 I recommend going with the Kuat Transfer V2 Bike Rack for 1 Bike # KU64FR. This bike rack has a 60 lb bike capacity, is will work with a class 1 hitch, and can be expanded to a 2 bike rack using the 1 Bike Add-On for Kuat Transfer V2 Bike Racks # KU57FR. The only caveat is that all of the single bike racks are wheel mounted, which means your fenders will need to come off for any of these racks to work. Realistically you'd be better off using a frame mounted platform rack but those are...
view full answer... - 1 Bike Add-On To Convert Kuat Transfer V2 To A 3-Bike CarrierIf you have the Kuat Transfer V2 Bike Rack for 2 Bikes # KU84FR then the correct add-on to convert it to a 3-bike carrier is 1 Bike Add-On for Kuat Transfer Bike Racks # KU57FR. You cannot use the 1 Bike Add-On for Kuat Transfer 1-Bike Platform Rack # TSAOB that you referenced because that is for the V1 and it doesn't fit the V2 that you have. I attached a demonstration video for you.

view full answer... - Is There a Difference Between Anti Rattle Device of Kuat Transfer V2 2 inch Hitch ModelsBoth the Kuat Transfer V2 for 2 inch hitches # KU84FR and the version that fits both the 2 inch and 1-1/4 inch part # KU74FR use a similar type of wedge anti-rattle device that pushes out against the hitch tube to reduce movement and create stability. The difference between the two styles is just due to the size of the shank and the available room for the mechanism to work. Either style works just as well.
view full answer... - Is There a Kuat Transfer V2 Made Only for 2-Inch Hitches?Kuat does make a 2-inch (only) version of the Transfer V2. The part number of the Kuat Transfer V2 Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - 2" Hitches is # KU84FR. As far as the clearance between the bumper and the installed hitch on your vehicle, the Kuat Transfer V2 bike rack allows for you to fully access the hatch on most vehicles (with bikes mounted). I looked up pictures of a hitch installed on the 2020 Subaru Ascent, and the hitch receiver sits pretty even with the bumper. However, if you have...

This will be more than enough space for bike racks! If you don't already have a bike rack I recommend checking out the Kuat Transfer V2 # KU84FR because it's a mid-range bike rack that does a great job at pairing quality and price-point. The unique U-Shaped frame also helps make it easier to load and unload your bikes. Attached...

From the hitch pin hole to the center of the first bike cradle is 16-1/2" on the Kuat Transfer V2 item # KU84FR. This should be plenty of room unless your hitch is way underneath your trailer. I went ahead and attached a diagram that shows this measurement and a few more.

- Does Curt Multi-Fit Hitch for Rear of Travel Trailer Still Require Stabilizer StrapCurt no longer requires the use of stabilizer straps with their hitches so you do not need to worry about that requirement any more. The bad news is that your Kuat is not approved for use at the rear of a travel trailer where the ride quality is much rougher so we can't safely recommend you use the rack in your # 13703 but we do have the similar Kuat # KU84FR which is reinforced for the much rougher ride quality and would work great.

- Will the Kuat Transfer V2 Clear a Bumper on a 2020 Kia Sorrento with a Draw-Tite Hitch?Since the length is 6 inches from the hitch pinhole of the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch # 75908 to the end of the bumper of your 2020 Kia Sorento, you will be able to clear your bumper of your vehicle when using the Kuat Transfer V2 Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - 2" Hitches - Wheel Mount # KU84FR without the use of a hitch extender. This is because the closest part of the Transfer V2 is 6-1/2 inches. In addition, you will not have an issue with bumper clearance while the rack is folded or...

As you can see by the accompanying diagram, the distance to the closest part of the Transfer V2 when folded is 5-7/8 inches.

Rock steady! I go and check to be sure fasteners are still tight and I lube the moving parts with a light machine oil. All is well! Oh, the first rack is still going strong even without TLC.
