• Kuat Cable Lock Alternative for SHERPA 2.0
  We have a different model of Kuat cable lock but no we do not offer the Sherpa 2.0. The lock we do offer comes in three different options but is not compatible with the Sherpa Bike Rack it works with the Kuat Transfer. You can purchase a single lock, a 2-pack, or a 3-pack. The single option is the Cable Lock and Hitch Lock for Kuat Transfer 1 Bike Rack item # ATSCLK11011. The 2-pack is the Cable Locks and Hitch Lock for Kuat Transfer 2 Bike Rack item # PTSCLK12. The 3-pack is the Cable...

• Will a Thule Lock Fit a Kuat Transfer Bike Rack
  I cannot guarantee that a Thule lock will fit a Kuat Transfer bike rack. What I recommend is the Kuat lock set for the Transfer 3, # PTSCLK13, for a couple of reasons. First it adds not just a hitch lock but also cable locks for each bike and all will use the same key. And second even if the Thule lock fit you would still have to get the actual lock cores and keys separately using # TH450200 and the total cost would be more and you would get fewer locks than if you went with the Kuat lock set.

• Difference Between Kuat Transfer V2 - 2 & 3 Bike Hitch Lock
  Yes it is. The Hitch Lock for Kuat Bike Racks - 2" Hitches, part # HL2, will work with the Kuat Transfer V2 Bike Rack for 2 Bikes but not the Kuat Transfer V2 Kuat Transfer V2 Bike Rack for 3 Bikes. The bike racks are secured to the vehicle in different ways, thus the incompatibility. The anti-rattle hitch bolt of the Transfer V2 works like a traditional threaded hitch pin to eliminate the movement between the hitch receiver and the hitch bike rack. The Transfer V3 has an anti-rattle device...

• Trunk Rack or Hitch Rack for 3 Mountain Bikes on 2012 Mazda CX-9
  As long as each of your mountain bikes weighs under 35 pounds, a trunk mounted rack is physically capable of safely supporting them for travel. With that being said it's not going to be a particularly enjoyable experience. Loading similarly sized bikes onto a hanging-style trunk rack can be somewhat difficult, as the cradle spacing typically isn't ideal to easily prevent bike-to-bike contact, and I have a feeling the two boys' mountain bikes will each require a separate adapter bar like...

• Installing the Cable Locks and Hitch Lock for Kuat Transfer 3 Bike Rack
  I can certainly walk you through the installation of the Cable Locks and Hitch Lock for Kuat Transfer 3 # PTSCLK13. These locks are specifically designed for the Transfer 3 Bike Platform Rack TS03G. To install the cable lock, you will need to remove the black end cap on the end of the ratcheting arm. Once the end cap is removed, you will slide the cable into the ratcheting arm and the black cap will set in the end of the arm. You will then use the included hardware to secure the cap in...

• Can Rear Hatch of 2015 RAV4 be Opened with Trunk Mount Bike Rack Installed
  I don't recommend opening the hatch of your 2015 Toyota RAV4 with a Thule Venture, or any trunk mount bike rack, on the vehicle. Even without the bikes. Your hatch isn't designed to support weight and if it were to fail you could cause a lot of harm to the rack, bikes, or even yourself. If you're looking for something to carry your bikes and allow access to the rear of the RAV4 I recommend a hitch mount bike rack. A hitch mount, once installed, makes no contact with the vehicle so it's...

• Recommended Trailer Hitch Receiver And 3 Bike Rack For 2007 Honda CRV
  To use a 3 bike rack, you will want a larger hitch. The Class I hitch you referenced 60869 will only allow 2 bikes to be carried on a 3 bike rack and has been discontinued. I recommend you upgrade to the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2 inch # 75547 that will give you a much greater capacity as well as many more accessory options. For a bike rack, I have a couple recommendations: For a 3 bike hanging rack, I recommend the Thule Helium Pro 3-Bike...

• Recommended Trailer Hitch And Three-Bike Carrier For 2015 Honda CR-V
  First, I recommend a Class lll trailer hitch like part # 75742 for your 2015 CR-V. I recommend a Class lll hitch because it is much more versatile when using the hitch for any bike carriers, cargo baskets or anything you want to use it for. The # 75742 has a 2-inch receiver opening. When selecting a bike carrier I recommend a platform-style carrier that holds the bikes by the wheel because it means less contact with the bike frame and risk of rubbing or damaging the bike. The bike rack...

• Recommended Trailer Hitch and Bike Rack to Transport 3 Bikes on 2018 Honda CR-V
  Class I trailer hitches are only able to carry at most 2 bikes when using a hitch-mounted rack. The good news, though, is that there are indeed a couple Class III hitches available that are confirmed to fit your 2018 Honda CR-V. I recommend going with the Draw-Tite Class III Max Frame Round Tube Receiver Hitch # 76128. This Class III hitch is custom-fit for your CR-V, which means it will use existing holes in the vehicle's frame for a no-drill installation. The 2 inch hitch receiver that...

• Recommended Hitch Mounted Bike Rack for 2018 Subaru Crosstrek with 2 Inch Trailer Hitch Receiver
  The Kuat Transfer 3 Bike Platform Rack # KU24FR is a customer favorite for a few reasons. The rack is very well made, durable, and easy to store. It has the unique feature of being able to step in the middle of the frame to load and unload the bikes so you can support the weight with your legs versus your back. This is the rack I recommend for you not only based on design, but also the ability to carry 3 bikes. The Swagman XC 2-Bike Rack Platform Style for 1-1/4" and 2" Trailer Hitches...

• Will the EcoHitch Hidden Hitch and Kuat Transfer 3 Bike Rack Combination Work on my 2019 Nissan Leaf
  To answer your questions in order: 1)Yes, you will be able to use the Kuat Transfer 3 with the 2" hitch receiver on the EcoHitch Hidden Hitch # 306-X7221 . The Transfer 3 is a great choice for carbon frame bikes because of the ratcheting wheel mounts that make zero contact with your bike frame. 2) The discrepancy on the tongue weight of the hitch is likely down to a weight capacity upgrade made by EcoHitch after the hitch was released-rarely are the instructions updated. I checked with...
