  The Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2" # 75676 is a confirmed fit for your 2014 Lexus RX 450h. We do not have any videos of the RX450h with that particular hitch receiver, but I have added the video of the installation of the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2" # C13143 which is also a fit to assist.

• Troubleshooting Kuat Transfer Bike Rack that Moves in the Hitch
  If you check out the test course video I attached for the Kuat Transfer TS02G that shows how stable it is on the road you'll see that the rack is supposed to be pretty stable once the hitch pin is tightened. What is most likely going on is that the hitch pin may not be tight enough to remove all of the movement. The easiest way to fix this is to tighten the hitch pin while you move the rack around in the hitch. This is the easiest way to get all of the movement out of the rack. For...

• Carrying a 40 Pound Bike on a Trailer Hitch Receiver Mounted Bike Rack With a 2012 Mazda 3
  The Swagman XTC-2, part # S64670, won't be able to carry a 40 pound bike. The weight maximums of the racks are very much set in stone, as the location of the weight of the bike changes the physics of the bike rack's ride and can cause damage if exceeded. Instead, I recommend the Swagman's Chinook, part # S64683. This rack adds a few features to the rack and an increased capacity to 45 pounds. Specifically over the XTC-2, it adds integrated hitch and bike locks, tilt away and fold up features...

• What Lock Do I Need For My 2" Kuat Transfer V2 Hitch Bike Rack
  There are two different Kuat Transfer V2 hitch bike racks. If you have the newer version, it has a cam lock and a special tool for the anti-rattle bolt, you need the Hitch Lock for Kuat Bike Racks - 2" Hitches, part # HL2. If you have the Kuat Transfer V2 Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Wheel Mount, part # KU74FR, you need the Cable Locks and Hitch Lock for Kuat Transfer 2 Bike Rack, part # PTSCLK12. Unfortunately, you can only get the hitch lock in the kit with the cable...

• Is Hollywood Racks Destination 2 Bike Platform Suitable For Carbon Fiber Frames
  The Hollywood Racks Destination 2 Bike Platform part # HLY94FR does hold the bikes by the frames which we do not normally recommend for carbon fiber bike frames to avoid scratches or damage to the frame. However, the Hollywood Racks platform rack features padded frame cradles that hold the frame in place to avoid scratching so it is a possibility for your carbon fiber frame if you are not concerned with frame contact. If you prefer a bike rack that only holds the bikes by the wheels (no...

• 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...

• Comparing the Saris Freedom and Kuat Transfer for Use on a 2017 Toyota Prius Prime
  One of the biggest factors when it comes to deciding bike rack fit is the distance from the center of your hitch pin hole to the outermost edge of your bumper. When we installed the Draw-Tite Sportframe Trailer Hitch Receiver # 24966 on a 2017 Toyota Prius Prime we found that distance to be 7". Out of the Saris Freedom 2 # SA4412B and the Kuat Transfer 2 # KU74FR, or their Fat Bike variations # SA4412B-FB and Transfer's Adapter # APBK, I prefer the Transfer. It is a wheel mount bike rack...

• Locking Hitch Pin for Kuat Transfer 2 Bike Rack
  There is a solution for you, but the HitchMate Threaded Lock # HE6001 will not work with your Kuat Transfer 2. You'd want the Cable Locks and Hitch Lock for Kuat Transfer 2 Bike Rack # PTSCLK12, which includes a hitch lock that attaches to your existing threaded hitch pin. The kit also includes a pair of cable locks to secure your bikes. I've added a link to a video review of this lock set for you to check out as well.

• Recommendation for Carrying a Bike with a 2010 Mercedes-Benz C300 for Easy Trunk Access
  Since trunk mount bike racks must be removed each and every time the trunk is opened I highly recommend going with a hitch mounted bike rack. I know you said you don't have a trailer hitch on your 2010 Mercedes-Benz C300 but we have everything you need to easily carry your bike while also being able to seamlessly access the trunk on your Sedan. The only trailer hitch that is available for your vehicle is the Curt Class I # C11030 with the 1-1/4" receiver. Because this is a Class I trailer...

• Recommended 2-Bike Hitch Mount Rack for 2016 Mazda 3 and 2016 Honda CR-V
  Both the Kuat Transfer V2 Bike Platform Rack # KU74FR and the Saris SuperClamp EX # SA4025F referenced in your question are really nice 2-bike platform style racks. Either of these will work great with a trailer hitch on your 2016 Mazda 3 and 2016 Honda CR-V. The Saris Freedom does feature a slightly larger weight capacity and includes both a hitch lock and cable lock to secure your bikes and carrier, however for your particular vehicles I recommend the Kuat Transfer. That is because unlike...

• Compatibility of Kuat Cable Locks and Hitch Lock With Anti-Rattle Hitch Lock on Kuat Transfer
  The Anti-Rattle Hitch Lock # HLT can be used with the # PTSCLK12. However, if you're asking if we can pull just the pin out of the # HLT and add it to the # PTSCLK12 that is not possible. The threaded hitch pin is not available on its own so the two will have to be purchased individually. Both are compatible with the Kuat Transfer manufactured before 2021.

• Adding a Hitch Lock to a Kuat Transfer Bike Rack on a 2016 Hyundai Sonata
  Anti-rattle device and hitch lock # SHP2082 will not fit the Kuat Transfer. The Transfer already has a threaded weld nut in its shank that is not accessible so you would not be able to install the block part of the anti-rattle device in the shank. You can use # PTSCLK12 to add bike and hitch locks to the Kuat Transfer but you would still need that special tool to thread in and tighten the Kuat hitch bolt. Trailer hitch # 24965 will not be a factor.

• Adding Hitch Pin and Bike Locks to the Kuat Transfer TS02G on a 2018 Honda CR-V
  We have exactly what you need to add locks to the Kuat Transfer TS02G. For just a locking hitch pin you can use part # HLT, but if you are wanting to add locks for the bike(s) as well then you would want the part # PTSCLK12. Either of these options will secure the Transfer to the Draw-Tite Max-Frame # 76128 on your 2018 Honda CR-V while you are out riding around. I do recommend going with the lock kit that comes with the cables as well so that when you have to run in the store or a gas...

• Locks for Kuat Transfer 3 Hitch Bike Rack
  The Kuat Transfer 3 hitch-mount platform bike racks all use the same Kuat hitch and 3 cable lock kit # PTSCLK13. We do have the lock kit for the Transfer 2 racks, part # PTSCLK12, to which you could add another cable lock such as # e98891. The Heininger Holdings Hitch Lock # HE6001 is a proprietary type that only fits certain models of their bike racks.

• Lightweight Platform Bike Rack for a 2017 BMW 5 Series
  You're in the right direction for the Class I hitch, as the Thule DoubleTrack Pro XT, part # TH92BJ is a great choice for a lot of different bikes. The DoubleTrack is fairly easy to load and the unique way that the frame clamps are mounted on the bike rack allows for you to mount in a variety of ways to the frame. I also appreciate that the DoubleTrack has an integrated lock system and its anti-rattle and sway is outright impressive. An extremely lightweight option if you're OK with...

• Best Trailer Hitch for 2019 Honda CR-V That Does Not Require Cutting of Bumper Fascia
  The best trailer hitch for your 2019 Honda CR-V that doesn't require any trimming of your fascia is the Class III Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # 76128 because it's the only option that features a 2" receiver (which is compatible with the most accessories). I have attached a sample installation video and some photos on a '19 CR-V so you can get a good idea of what this will look like once installed. If you don't already have a bike rack then I highly recommend the Kuat Transfer...

• Locking Hitch Pin Recommendation for a Kuat Transfer 2 TS02G Bike Rack
  The Kuat Transfer 2 that you referenced comes with an anti-rattle device. To convert it to a locking hitch pin would require the part # PTSCLK12 which attaches to the end of the hitch pin and then offers a cable lock that you can route through your bike frame. This is the only locking hitch pin setup I can recommend for the Transfer.

• Locking Hitch Pin Recommendation for Kuat Bike Rack
  I do have an option for you but the Lets Go Aero lock part # 63232 is not actually compatible with the Kuat Transfer rack because Kuat racks have special threads and only works with their hitch pin. The Kuat Anti-Rattle Hitch Lock fits directly onto the existing Kuat Anti-Rattle pin that came with your rack without having to change your setup. If you're looking for added security for your bikes in a system that was specifically designed for the Kuat Transfer , I recommend looking at the...

• Hitch Lock for Kuat Transfer Bike Rack
  For your Kuat Transfer 2 bike rack part we have the Cable Lock and Hitch Pin setup part # PTSCLK12 which will lock both bikes to the rack and the rack to your vehicle hitch. This fits the original Kuat Transfer and not the V2 part # KU84FR which has a built in hitch lock and anti-rattle.

• Lock For Original Kuat Transfer Bike Rack
  There is an option for a hitch lock for the original (manufactured before 2021) Kuat Transfer bike rack that you can use other than the Anti-Rattle Hitch Lock for Kuat Transfer Bike Racks # HLT. The other option is a cable and hitch lock combination, with the hitch lock securing to the Transfer's existing hitch pin, and there is an option for 2 cable locks and a hitch lock, or 1 cable lock and a hitch lock: - 1 Cable Lock: Cable Lock and Hitch Lock for Kuat Transfer # # ATSCLK11011 -...

• Is Stabilizing Strap Needed for etrailer.com Trailer Hitch on a 2018 Honda CR-V for Bike Rack
  No, the Stabilizing Strap # 18050 is not required for non-trailer loads with the etrailer.com Trailer Hitch # E98848 installed on your 2018 Honda CR-V. I have attached an installation video and a photo of what the finished product looks like on a 2018 CR-V for you to check out. If you are planning on using a bike rack, for unrestricted rear hatch access to your CR-V you can add the Yakima BackSwing # Y02483 which swings your bike rack out and away. You can even leave your bikes loaded...

• Recommended 2 Inch Trailer Hitch for 2018 Nissan Rogue and Kuat Transfer Bike Rack
  For your 2018 Nissan Rogue, the Curt hitch # C13204 will work with the Kuat Transfer 2 Bike Platform Rack. You are correct on the clearances, but we have physically tested it and I've attached the video that confirms the fit for you. This hitch will be concealed well under the bumper which you can see from the attached video. If you don't have the locks, I recommend adding the Cable Locks and Hitch Lock for Kuat Transfer 2 Bike Rack # PTSCLK12. This will secure the bike rack to the...
