Most Popular Kuat for 2016 Mazda 5

What I love about this hitch: 1. So lightweight that I can install and uninstall it by myself quickly and easily (female, under 5' tall and <100 lbs.) 2. It's STURDY 3. With the Kuat hitch lock, I feel more secure that the rack won't be stolen (sold separately). Universal brands of hitch locks, 1/2", do not fit. It seems to have to be this one 4. Easy to strap the bikes on, and the straps appear strong 5. Our 2 bikes didn't smack into each other on our test run of about 10 miles 6. On same test run, rack didn't move. We were fearful at first, but after a short while forgot it was on the car What I don't like (minor annoyance, not about the rack itself): The silly drawstring burlap bags that are included with Kuat's products for the small accessories!! They are bulky, scratchy, impractical, and I just want to throw them out! :) I couldn't be happier with my purchase...from the price, to the rack itself, to the great service (and easy to navigate/informative website) at etrailer!

I was looking for a light weight bike rack for my 2015 Honda Accord. Your videos stated that the Kuat Beta was light and easy to install. You were right. I opened the box, read the instructions, and had it installed in about 10 minutes. I don't use a rack lock. It is so easy to pop on and off the hitch that I keep the rack in my car trunk.
