Most Popular 250 Lbs for 2015 Kia Sorento

Love the rack and the folks at e-trailer got it to me remarkably fast. Everything looked great set up for the most part. The directions were very clear and it required minimal effort.

Shipped ahead of schedule in excellent condition. Kuat Pivot is built extremely well, heavy duty, and looks sharp.

Since the hitch on my car is very recessed below the bumper I needed to use a hitch extender for my bike rack. I decided to look into swing away mounts because I figured that would add convenience when I’m on a road trip with a rack full of bikes and I wanted to access the rear of the vehicle. This product is great…it sticks out a bit more but it’s worth it to have the convenience of the swing away option.

Solid, bullet proof, yet the convenient swing away allows unrestricted access to the back of my vehicle. It is heavy, but being made of steel, it holds a heavy load. I have an old solid steel Thule rack that I modified so that I can move the bike carrier bars 180 degrees - from the traditional position carrying the bikes away from the car and carrier, or flipped over so that the bike carriers rest on my spare and carry the bikes between the rack and the car. This allows me to carry very heavy bikes, such as e-bikes compactly without extending the length of my vehicle much, and still allowing me to use the swing away feature of the Yamaha extender. Photo shows a light road bike on the hitch, but it works equally as well with heavier or multiple bikes.

Excellent product, solidly built and easy to install. I was hesitant because of the full size spare tire on the back ladder. The videos and the specifications (especially the sizing details) gave me all the info I needed to make the decision to install it on my Sprinter. The swing away rack gives me full access to the rear of the vehicle. I wish I had bought it sooner.

I just installed the Pivot2 on my Dodge Ram and plugged my NV2 into it. The Pivot is a beast. I can now swing the NV2 completely out of the way to access the bed or drop the tailgate so I can load my wife's trike. etrailer, you guys rock. Thanks.
