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 NV22G 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 NV22G 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.

  • Trailer Hitch Receiver and 4-Way Vehicle Wiring Harness For a 2024 Kia Niro
    We have the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C77NR which is custom fit for your 2024 Kia Niro. This will give you a 2" receiver opening for a large selection of Ball Mounts # C45534 and hitch mounted accessories like a Bike Rack # NV22G. The Curt Powered Tail Light Converter # C59236 will provide you with a 4-way flat trailer connector. This is the connector most commonly found on small trailers.

  • Differences Between Kuat NV 2.0 Base and Non-Base Model
    The Kuat NV 2.0 2 Bike Platform Rack, # NV22G, and the Kuat NV 2.0 Base 2-Bike Platform rack, # BA22B. are both very similar bike racks. Both racks can be expanded to a 4-bike rack, # NA22G add-on for the NV 2.0 and # BA02B for the NV 2.0 Base, and both racks have very similar specs. The NV 2.0 # NV22G does include the bike repair stand mounted on the end. The # NV22G, when installed in the hitch, will sit closer to your vehicle when folded down then the NV 2.0 Base bike rack.

  • Differences Between Kuat Sherpa 2.0 and NV 2.0 Bike Racks
    The Kuat Sherpa 2.0 # SH22G and the NV 2.0 # NV22G that you referenced are both excellent platform-style racks that will hold your bikes by the front wheels with no frame contact. These are top-of-the-line carriers and you really would not go wrong with either option. As you mentioned, the NV does have wheel cradles that can support fat tire bikes with up to 4.8 inch wide tires and does have a higher weight capacity of 60 pounds per bike (40 pounds per bike on the Sherpa). The NV does...

  • Can The Kuat Sherpa 2.0 Bike Rack Handle The Weight Of Two E-Bikes
    The Kuat Sherpa 2.0 Bike Rack for 2 Bikes # SH22G has a 40lb per bike capacity so unless removing the batteries drops the weight of the bike back down below 40lbs this would not be a compatible option. Technically you should never be hauling your e-bikes with the batteries installed on them. There should've been a note in your e-bike's manual that states to store it inside the vehicle while hauling. Most likely you will need to use a different rack with a higher capacity otherwise you risk...

  • Recommendation For a Trailer Hitch That Will Fit 2006 Mercedes-Benz ML350
    The item you selected, Curt Class III Trailer Hitch, part # 13342, is the hitch I would recommend for your 2006 Mercedes Benz ML350. This is a Class III Hitch, with a 2 inch receiver that is compatible with most accessories such as cargo carriers or bike racks. This is the highest rated hitch available for your 2006 Mercedes-Benz ML350 for towing. In addition to part # 13342, you may need the following to complete your towing setup: Ball Mount part # C45010, Pin and Clip part #...

  • 4-Bike Platform Rack Recommendation that Can Swing Away for Rear Vehicle Cargo Access
    Just recently a few of the bike rack manufacturers released pivoting hitch adapters that can be used with platform bike racks so we have just what you are looking for! The best adapter is then the Yakima Backswing part # Y02483. You also referenced the Kuat NV 2.0 part # NV22G which is a really great 2 bike rack. Some consider to be the best so for a 4 bike version we have the part # NV22B-NA22B which is a fantastic option that will work great for your 4 bikes and with the Backswing adapter....

  • Can Rear Bumper Cover be Reinstalled With Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch Installed on a 2019 Dodge Durango
    Yes, you will be able to cover the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # DT38MR once it is installed on your 2019 Dodge Durango. The photo you are referencing is from the linked installation video of this trailer hitch on a 2017 Durango. If you skip to the very end of the video you can see where our install team is able to replace the cover after all is said and done. I have also attached an installation video of this on a 2018 Durango that you can check out. If you let me know...

  • Recommended Bike Rack to Carry 2 Electric Bikes with Alternative Frames and Fenders
    I do have a recommendation for you but the Kuat NV 2.0, part # NV22G, isn't going to work with your fenders. Wheel mount bike racks rarely work with bikes that have fenders. Instead take a look at the Saris Freedom, part # SA4412B. It has the same 60 pound capacity as the Kuat and hold the bikes by the frame. The cradles that grab the frame are adjustable and can be attached to the bikes at different locations and angles. I've linked a video so you can see how a bike is actually mounted...

  • Best Bike Rack for a Pedego E-Bike on a 2019 Honda CR-V
    We have a great rack for you! It's the Saris Freedom, part # SA4412B. It secures bikes by the frame and can handle up to 60 pounds per bike. The threaded hitch pin prevents sway with an anti-rattle bolt, which is a must when travelling on the highway. The tightening down is by use of knobs and ratchet straps, making it a very easy setup. I've linked to a video review of this rack for you to look at.

  • Can Add-On for Kuat NV 2.0 Fit the Original NV
    The 2-Bike Add-on, part # NA22G, fits the current Kuat NV 2.0, part # NV22G, but unfortunately does not fit the original model. If you need to upgrade to a 4-bike rack you might take a look at the Saris SuperClamp EX, part # SA4026F. When using only 2 bikes it has the same 60 pound per bike weight capacity however, that does drop to 35 pounds when adding the 3rd and 4th bikes. Similarly to the NV, it does include locks for the rack and the bikes, and it also holds the bikes by the wheels...

  • Recommended 2 Bike Rack for a 2013 Kia Sorento
    If you are looking for a top-of-the-line 2 bike rack to use with your 2013 Kia Sorento then I recommend going with the Kuat NV 2.0. This bike rack will fit a 1-1/4 inch receiver with part # NV12G or a 2 inch receiver with part # NV22G. Not only does the NV 2.0 offer a very sleek look, but it also comes with a built-in bike repair stand, has bike and hitch locks to secure your bikes and bike rack, plus it secures the bikes by their wheels instead of frame so that it can accommodate a wide...

  • Hitch-Mount Platform Rack for Triathlon and Electric Bikes
    Given your interest in acquiring an electric bike in the future, the choice of platform-style hitch bike rack comes down to the specific weight of the bikes. Electric bikes can weigh as little as 50-lbs but this beyond the weight capacity for most standard bike racks. The typical per-bike weight capacity for standard bike racks is 30 to 35-lbs. Many e-bikes can weigh up to 70-lbs or more depending on their design and whether the battery is removed during transport. On the linked page you...

  • 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.

  • Best Bike Rack Recommendation for 2018 BMW X1 with etrailer Hitch Installed
    For the etrailer 2-inch hitch that fits your 2018 BMW X1 part # e93KR the Kuat NV 2.0 part # NV22G if you are looking for the absolute best of the best. It's the easiest to load, the best made, and has features other racks don't offer like a built-in repair stand. If you were looking for something priced lower the Hollywood Racks Trail Rider part # HR200Z is the best option. This rack is very well made and is much more stable than other bike racks in it's price range.

  • Kuat Bike Rack and Swing Away Extender Recommendations for 2021 Ford Bronco with Spare Tire
    Thank you for all of the detailed information! The Kuat Pivot 2 Swing Away Hitch Extender # PVP20B is my absolute favorite solution for vehicles with a spare tire because it places the hitch pin hole the bike rack connects to 12-3/16" further back than the hitch pin hole on your 2021 Ford Bronco trailer hitch plus it swings out of the way enough that you can open up your back door for unrestricted access. Then for the bike rack there are 2 potential options from Kuat; the NV 2.0 Base...

    We have two really great hitch options for your 2020 BMW X5 M50i. We have the mostly hidden Draw Tite hitch part # 76288 that only has the hitch opening hanging below the rear bumper or we have the totally hidden Hidden Hitch part # DT96GR which has a removable hitch opening that allows you to have a totally invisible setup when you don't want the hitch. This hitch does cost more though so you'd have to factor that into your decision. It sounds like you already have a bike rack but either...

    Thanks for the information. The first thing you are going to want to check is the clearance from your hitch pin hole out 5-3/16". This is where the Kuat Pivot item # PVP20B begins to rise. The top of the Kuat Pivot sits 5-3/16 of an inch above your Jeep's hitch pin hole. I don't know what year Jeep you have or your spare tire size but we have had issues with the swing away adapters not clearing the bottom of the spare tire.

  • Kuat 2 Bike Rack Recommendation that Is Motorhome Use Approved
    Not every bike rack is rated for the rougher ride quality at the rear of a motorhome which is why the Kuat NV # NV22G is not motorhome approved. The ride quality is rougher there due to the longer distance between the rear axle and the rear of the vehicle which causes the movement from bumps to be exaggerated. Similar to how the rear seats of a school bus are much rougher. With that said Kuat has their Piston Pro X bike rack part # KU98VR listed as compatible with motorhomes and since is...

  • Tail Light and License Plate Kit Recommendation for a Kuat NV 2.0 Bike Rack
    Thanks for reaching out! To add tail lights and a license plate to your Kuat NV 2.0 Bike Rack # NV22G I recommend picking up the Curt Auxiliary LED Indicator Lights # C53201 and the Thule License Plate Holder # TH35JV - you'll need to splice in the wiring from the Thule to the running light and ground functions of the Curt wiring but aside from that the installation should be pretty straightforward since the Curt installs with 3M adhesive backing and the Thule installs with straps.

  • Trailer Hitch for 2020 Nissan Rogue to Carry Kuat NV 2.0 Bike Rack
    The etrailer hitch part # e98846 that you referenced would be a great hitch choice for your 2020 Nissan Rogue to carry a Kuat NV 2.0 bike rack part # NV22G. The etrailer hitch is mostly hidden since only the hitch hangs below the rear bumper and has the highest tongue weight rating which is why I recommended it.

    Thank you for your purchase of the Kuat NV 2.0 Bike Rack # NV22G! When it comes to lighting I have an alternate solution to what you're asking with the following parts: Curt Auxiliary LED Indicator Lights - # C53201 Thule License Plate Holder for Bike Racks - # TH35JV (if the bikes also cover your license plate) This gives you better visibility with the bike rack on your car and the lights are installed with 3M adhesive backing so it's a pretty simple install.

  • Kuat Bike Rack Compatible With a Mountain Bike That Has a 47.5" Wheelbase
    I recommend the Kuat NV 2.0 Bike Rack for 2 Bikes # NV22G for your mountain bike with a 47.5" wheelbase. While the Kuat Sherpa # SH22G will only allow for a wheelbase up to 47" , the NV 2.0 allows a wheelbase up to 50". Another great feature of the NV 2.0 is the built-in bike repair stand. This will make it much easier to make repairs and adjustments to your mountain bike when you are out.
