Question:
The stated maximum wheel base for the Kuat Transfer bike rack is 50. My bike has a wheel base of 48. Do you think my bike will fit on this rack?

A bike with a 48-inch wheelbase will fit on the Kuat Transfer V2 Bike Platform Rack # KU74FR. We have other bike racks that can handle this as well.
The similar Swagman E-Spec for 2-inch hitches only, # S94FR, will accept up to a 48-inch wheelbase. I have linked a video review of this rack for you.
If you do not have a 2-inch hitch, then take a look at the Hollywood Racks TRS # HR3000 which fits 1-1/4 inch and 2 inch hitches and accepts up to a 48-inch wheelbase. I have linked a video of this rack as well.
