Rotating Arms with Ratcheting Wheel Hooks

Kuat NV22G ratcheeting wheel hooks

The NV 2.0 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.


Large Front Wheel Cradles

Kuat NV22G sliding wheel cradles with ratcheting strapsKuat NV22G sliding wheel cradles with ratcheting straps

The front wheel cradles will easily accommodate fat bike wheels. They can also be adjusted to perfectly fit each bike's wheelbase. Use the included Allen key stored in the compartment at the back of the rack to adjust.


Sliding, Ratcheting Rear-Wheel Straps

Kuat NV22G sliding wheel cradles with ratcheting straps

Ratcheting rear-wheel straps slide along the wheel trays to accommodate bikes with a variety of wheelbases. Press the quick-release button on the strap buckle to remove your bikes. An extender strap is included for use with 1 fat bike. Additional extender straps (sold separately) are available if you have more than 1 fat bike.


Foot Lever for Easy Tilting and Folding

Kuat NV22G hitch tightening adjustment knob

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.


Kuat NV 2.0 tilting rackKuat NV 2.0 folding rack

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.


Built-In Repair Stand

Kuat NV22B built-in repair stand

The Trail Doc is a handy repair stand that attaches to the front of the rack. It lets you position your bike as needed for adjustments, cleaning, and on-the-go repairs. It can also be locked into place to prevent theft and includes a cap for the housing if you prefer to use the rack without it.


Kuat NV22B adjustable built-in stand

A spring-loaded clamp grabs your bike by the seat post or top tube. It has a soft, rubber coating that won't scratch your bike's paint. The rotating clamp arm lets you adjust the angle of your bike and the locking collar secures your bike at the desired height.


Tool-Free Installation with Anti-Rattle Device

Kuat NV22G anti rattle device

The knob at the front of the shank lets you quickly and easily install the rack. Just slide the shank into your hitch and turn the knob until snug. The knob deploys an anti-rattle wedge inside the shank to help take play out of the hitch connection. The locking hitch pin has an Allen tool on the end that further tightens the hand knob if you are still experiencing rattle after hand-tightening.


Complete Security for Bikes and Rack

Kuat NV22G integrated cable lock

The NV 2.0 includes integrated cable locks that lets you secure your bikes to the rack. A 1/4" thick, braided steel cable extends from each wheel tray, threads through your bike's frame, and locks back onto itself.


Kuat NV22G integrated cable lock

A locking hitch pin is also included to secure the rack to your vehicle. It's keyed alike with the cable lock so you only need 1 key for the rack.

See what our Experts say about this Kuat Hitch Bike Racks

  • Does the Kuat NV 2.0 Work with Bikes with Fenders?
    I have a solution for you. Here at Etrailer, we strongly discourage using wheel-mounted bike racks like the Kuat NV 2.0 # NV22B for bikes with fenders. Mounting wheels with fenders can cause the fenders to crack or become damaged, especially with the added bumps and torque from your vehicle when it is in motion. For a solution that completely avoids any potential for damage, I recommend the Swagman Dispatch Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - 2" Hitches - Frame Mount # S44FR. Since the Dispatch mounts...

  • Will Two 30 Inch Wide Kayaks Fit on Lower Deck of Yakima EasyRider Trailer
    I don't believe your two 30 inch wide kayaks will fit on the bottom deck of the Yakima EasyRider Double Decker Trailer # Y08129 . I confirmed through my contact at Yakima that the width of the bottom deck is 54 inches inside to inside of the 2 inch diameter tubing that make up the frame. Because the bottom deck has a height of 21 inches, you would not be able to fit your 30 inch wide kayaks on their side, as you mentioned. You could, however, fit one on the bottom and a second or third...

  • What Do You Recommend for Fitting Four Bikes Securely on a 2016 Subaru Outback?
    I have a solution for you. You are right when you mention that the Kuat NV 2.0 Two-Bike Add-On # BA02B will get you close (if not over) to the 200 pound maximum weight capacity of your 2016 Subaru Outback with 4 bikes plus the Kuat NV 2.0 Bike Rack # NV22B. In order to have the safety of your adult bikes with a platform rack without having to mount extra bikes on the roof, I recommend the Saris Freedom Bike Rack for 4 Bikes - 2" Hitches - Frame Mount - Tilting # SA4414B. This is a solid...

  • Solution for Carrying Bike Rack With 2022 Mini Cooper JCW Convertible
    I do have a solution, but there are no custom fit hitches available for any version of the 2022 Mini Cooper. Since you have the convertible that also rules out a trunk bike rack and a roof rack bike rack. What you can do is take the # E17 to a fabricator and have them fashion a custom hitch for you. This would allow you to use a hitch mounted bike rack like the Kuat NV 2.0 # NV22B.

  • Can Kuat NV Bike Rack be Used with 2019 Honda Accord
    Kuat actually makes a version of their Kuat NV 2.0 that fits Class I 1-1/4 inch hitches like the hitches that fit your 2019 Honda Accord such as the Curt # C11525. For that you'd just need the # NV12B and you'd be set! The reason Class III hitches aren't available for your vehicle is that Class III hitches are normally only used on higher capacity vehicles like trucks and SUVs. I attached a review video for the Kuat for you to check out as well.

  • Recommended Hitch Extender for a 2015 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon Carrying Kuat NV 2.0 Bike Rack
    I can tell you have been doing some research and know what you are looking for. Just as a blanket statement, any hitch extender will reduce the tongue weight of your trailer hitch receiver even if it has a higher weight capacity, like the Roadmaster Anti-Rattle Hitch Extender # RM-071-1075 that you referenced. Both the Curt # C45791 and the Brophy # HE06 options will still cause some play by themselves because of the weight sitting further out from your trailer hitch pin hole. What I...

    I recommend using the following for your 2019 Land Rover Discovery Sport: - etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e68KR - Kuat NV 2.0 Bike Rack for 2 Bikes # NV22B I really like the etrailer hitch because the matte black finish not only does a great job at matching with your vehicle, but it also hides nicks and dings that occur from road debris it comes into contact with during travel. The NV 2.0 bike rack is my choice in a bike rack because of how easy it is to use and how sleek it looks...

  • How to Find Key Number for Kuat Bike Rack
    The integrated locks for your Kuat NV 2.0 Bike Rack like # NV22B will have the key number stamped both on the keys themselves and on the lock cores right above the key slot. The numbers on the keys are pretty small and hard to read but there should be a clear stamped number on the cores. Once you locate this number it's just a matter of finding the matching replacement cores on the page I linked below. If you still can't find the numbers please let me know or email me a picture of your...

  • Is Kuat NV 2.0 Bike Rack Compatible With Stromberg Carlson Bike Bunk
    Any bike rack used with the # CC-275 would need to be rated for a travel trailer. Unfortunately, the # NV22B does not have that rating. What you can use instead is the Kuat Transfer V2 Bike Rack for 2 Bikes # KU84FR. This rack may not be as nice as the NV 2.0 but it will get the job done and is compatible with a travel trailer. Keep in mind, the # CC-275 only has a capacity of 100 lbs. Since the bike rack itself weighs 37 lbs that only leaves 63 lbs for your bikes.

  • Will a Trailer Hitch Interfere with the Foot Tailgate Activation on a 2018 Mercedes GLA 250
    Installing a trailer hitch, like the Curt # C13197 that you referenced, on a vehicle like your 2018 Mercedes-Benz GLA-250 with the foot activated tailgate will slightly interfere with the activation. Typically you will wave your foot right where the hitch receiver sits. When you install a trailer hitch you will simply need to kick straight out to the left or right of the receiver openening to activate your tailgate. Installation instructions have been attached for you to reference, but...

  • Lowering Kuat Platform Bike Rack with Missing Pedal
    I am not sure how to operate the tilt without the pedal present. If it fell off this would be a good time to remind you the rack has a lifetime warranty so I would recommend contacting who you got the rack from to see about a warranty claim.

  • Best Hitch And Bike Rack Combo For A 2020 Toyota Rav4
    I recommend getting a 2 inch hitch receiver # C13416 for your 2020 Toyota Rav4. You have much more choices with bike racks that way. My favorite is the Kuat NV 2.0 # BA22B because it can fit a fat tire bike with this adapter # APBK and can fit bikes up to 60lbs. If you're getting more into biking you can add on more cradles to work with more bikes # BA02B. It also comes with more colors. Either Grey # NV22G or metallic black # NV22B. If you're wanting a more cost effective option, go...

  • Kuat NV 2.0 vs Kuat Sherpa 2.0 2-Bike Rack For 2 Inch Hitch & Is One Easier to Install
    The Kuat Sherpa 2.0 and NV 2.0 are awesome racks so you made really nice choices, and as far as the OEM hitch on your 2022 Odyssey, the clearance is going to be the same with these racks. For overall ease of installation, the way both racks install is exactly the same - you just insert the rack into your hitch, turn the knob at the front of the rack, put the locking hitch pin in and you're done. The biggest difference in the ease of installation is going to be that the Sherpa 2.0 is lighter...

  • Trailer Hitch and Bike Rack Recommendations for a 2020 Mercedes-Benz GLA
    Thanks for reaching out! I recommend using the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e42KR for carrying a bike with your 2020 Mercedes-Benz GLA because it has a matte black finish that looks more durable and does a great job at hiding any dings or scratches that can result from road debris. If you don't already have a bike rack I recommend checking out the Kuat NV 2.0 which is available in Gunmetal Gray # NV22G and Metallic Black # NV22B. I like this rack because it not only looks great but...

  • Bike Rack With Swing Away To Drivers Side Of Vehicle
    As the RockyMounts AfterParty # RKY37ZR will only swing away to the passenger side you might consider the Kuat Pivot 2 # PVD20B which you can use with a Kuat Bike Rack # NV22B. This combination will swing to the drivers side.

  • Best 4-Bike Rack Recommendation with Ramp
    You really can't beat the Kuat NV 2.0 bike rack # NV22B with the ramp # ANVBRB for a super easy and high quality bike rack setup. The NV is widely considered to be the best rack you can get due to how well it's made, how easy it is to use, and high quality features other racks don't have like the ramp and repair stand. The RockyMounts Split Rail isn't a terrible rack at all but the lower ground clearance might cause the rack to drag and potentially get damaged. I attached review videos...

  • Best Trailer Hitch Receiver For Carrying a Bike Rack Behind a 2024 Volvo XC90
    I recommend the Hidden Hitch by Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch Receiver # DT82GR as the best option for carrying a bike rack behind your 2024 Volvo XC90. When not needed you are able to easily remove the receiver tube so you will not have any part of the receiver sitting below your fascia when not in use. The Kuat NV 2.0 Bike Rack # NV22B is one of my favorite racks to use as it is so easy to use. The lightweight aluminum construction makes it easy to slip into and remove from the receiver and...

    I would be happy to help you choose a trailer hitch so you can keep using your Kuat NV 2.0 Bike Rack # NV22B or # NV22G on your 2020 Subaru Outback Wagon. Although the 3 hitches you mentioned to feature the hidden crosstube design, the Stealth Hitches option # 391SUOB20 is a completely different animal so I'll start off by comparing the Curt # C67JR and EcoHitch # EH34FR options first.

    Yes, you will have to remove the bumper on your 2023 Subaru Outback Wagon to install the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # DT94YR. It can be a bit daunting especially if you've never done anything like this before but there aren't any other alternative installation methods. If you're looking for a bike rack I recommend checking out the Kuat NV 2.0 # NV22B because it's designed for the biking enthusiast and includes easy-to-use features (like a locking anti-rattle knob and integrated...

  • What Do Draw-Tite Hitches Look Like When Installed on 2022 Subaru Outback Wagon
    We have actually installed both Draw-Tite hitches on a 2022 Subaru Outback Wagon so I've added a photo and installation video of each for you to check out! The Draw-Tite # DT94YR is what I recommend going with because it has a hidden crosstube so the finished look is really clean. The # DT73RR will be easier to install, but the crosstube is visible under the rear bumper so it doesn't look as clean and it will ultimately be reducing your ground clearance some.

All 3 options have the same basic design and the weight ratings exceed that of your '19 Outback Wagon so it really boils down to pricing and construction. I recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch # C13410 because it has the best welding done at a reasonable price. Curt also tends to put a thicker powder coat finish...

  • Can Class I Hitch Carry 50 lb Bike Rack and 2 Mountain Bikes
    The class I hitches for your 2018 Honda HR-V have a tongue weight capacity of 200 lbs. So with a 50 lb bike rack you'd have 150 lbs of capacity left over. The Kuat NV part # NV12G that you referenced weighs 52 lbs and is one of the nicest bike racks available. It has a 60 lb per bike capacity as well plus a built in repair stand as well. So this would be under the 200-lb limit. However, we now have the EcoHitch Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - 2" # 306-X7322. It has a 300...

They come in the three colors Matte Black # KU97FR, Metallic Black # KU47FR and Gunmetal Gray # KU67FR. The NV 2.0 is a great option for almost any type of bike.
