Question:

Im interested in the Swagman X for storage of my Kuat NV bike rack. I have misplaced the converter that allows the 1-1/4inch rack to fit a 2inch receiver. What combination of the 3 would be suitable? Thanks.

Expert Reply:

The Kuat NV bike racks are either 1-1/4 inch or 2 inch. There isn't a model that fits both (like the Alpha, Beta, and Sherpa that use # D101, but this adapter does not fit the NV).

So what you would need for a 1-1/4 inch bike rack is a reduce sleeve, # HT02, to be able to fit the rack in the Swagman X Mount Bike Carrier Storage Rack # S80940.
