Question:
I am considering the Kuat Transfer V2 bike rack for one bike. I have a 1 1/4inch receiver hitch. So, can I use your rack without use adaptor sleeve? I have fenders on my Velotrac Foldable 1 Plus. Does your rack work with fenders? Thanks, Thomas Brannen

Thank you for your question, Thomas.
The answer to your first question is yes, you absolutely can use the Kuat Transfer V2 # KU64FR without using the adapter sleeve. However, because of how the wheel hook will need to hold onto your bike, your fenders will get in the way.
Your bike wont work with a rack that is frame mount based on not having much of a cross bar in the center of the bike. I would recommend going with Hollywood Racks CrossTrack bike rack part # HLY68RR . I'll attach a photo of a bike loaded up on it. Since the racks upright arms hold on the front and rear tires, you can adjust it so that you have clearance for your fenders.
A few bonuses for this rack is it does have a 66lb bike carrying capacity, comes with a bike and hitch lock, and also has an option ramp add on, which is part # HLY39RR.
Let me know what you think of the Hollywood rack. If there's something you don't like about it let me know. I can look into other bike rack options for you.
