Expert Reply:

I do have an option for you but the Kuat Bike Rack Shank Adapter part # D101 doesn't work on the Kuat Transfer, only the Kuat Transfer V2 which is the second generation of the rack. Instead, I recommend using the Trailer Hitch Reducer 2" to 1-1/4" Trailer Hitch Receiver part # e63YR which does the same thing, it's just a bit different. You will however need another hitch pin for this to work, the etrailer Hitch Receiver Lock part # e98881 is what I recommend.

Please note, Kuat does offer an adapter for this specific rack which you can obtain through them.
