What is Distance that Kuat Pivot Adapter Adds to Bike Rack Setup
Updated 01/27/2026 | Published 08/28/2024
Question:
Can you give the distance that the Kuat sticks out at the hitch pins out compared to the Yakima? I bought the Yakima and it seem to push the rack out pretty far.

Hey Patrick, the distance between the hitch pin holes on the Kuat Pivot hitch adapter part # PVP20B is 12-13/16 inches. That is how much distance it would add to the bike rack setup you have. You can see this and other dimensions in the attached picture.
