Kuat NV 2.0 Platform Hitch Rack (Grey/Orange) (2 Bikes) (1.25" Receiver)
First off ordering from PERFORMANCE BIKES was a great experience. They shipped the product extremely fast and it arrived with no damage right to my front door. The quality of the Bike Rack is SUPERB! It is made very well and sturdy. I ended up getting the 1 1/4 because I am using it on a 2019 Chrysler 300 and I didn't want to go for the 2” only because I did not want the straight piping which will cause the rack to sit lower than I want it too. I know that I can use a different neck to get the angle higher, but it would have caused the rack to sit farther from the bumper than I would like.

However, the build and the sturdiness of the unit is still fairly strong. I have a 2” tow hitch installed with a 2" to 1 1/4 reducer. This would allow me to run most other things with the best of both worlds without compromise (base start 2").

The Kuat hitch rack itself is fairly easy to assemble and I found the instruction pretty straight forward and easy. It took about 30 minutes to install in the house before I mounted it on the car. The finishing is very nice with the KUAT name printed on the rack rather than a sticker. The release is fairly easy to use and I read previous reviews saying that it was inconvenient, I found it reasonable and something to get used too.

The locking mechanism is really good and secures the bike. The icing on the cake for me was the stand that is available for use to do quick repairs or tune-up. If you want to prevent the bar from getting stolen just take it off and place it in the car or trunk when you leave to ride.

Overall, the rack is nice, if you have a few extra dollars to spend then go get it...If riding is your passion then the purchase of this should not be a question "Just do it!"...Highly recommended!
