Question:

We have a 2022 Airstream Interstate 24GT with air ride suspension. Can we use our Kuat bike rack with pivot swing arm so we can open our rear doors. We have regular bikes at under 30 lbs each.

Expert Reply:

You definitely can use the Kuat Pivot 2 Swing Away on your 2022 Airstream Interstate 24GT. Kuat doesn't like the Pivot 2 being used on larger motorhomes, but the smaller ones like what you have are just fine (I confirmed this with my contact at Kuat).

Typically the Pivot 2 that swings to the passenger's side, part # PVP20B, is the better way to go since it means you will be out of the way of traffic when you swing your bike rack out, but if your specific application is better for the bike rack to swing out to the driver's side then you can use part # PVD20B instead.
