KuatSherpa 2.0 Durable Lightweight Aluminum Compact 2 Bike Transporting Hitch Rack with Cable Lock & Foldable Tire Cradles | Capacity - 40 Lbs per Tray

I love it. I was hesitant because I've seen issues with thefts but the lighter weight and this colorway are great. The welds are sloppy and ugly but to get my gas mileage back (after the massive Saris MHS platform rack I tried first) I'll deal. Assembly -- watch a video before you even try. Also the max wheelbase is 47" and it looks like a bike pushing that limit might not be stable but it is. (There is a wheel base cap extender if you want/need the insurance -- esp for longer or rowdier trips.) This isn't supposed to be fender compatible, but I can use it on a vintage hybrid bike with fenders and rim brakes via the fork crown; YMMV. With my gravel bike, the arm does contact my carbon fork slightly on the side. I'd ding one star except getting away with fenders on that other bike without having to buy/use adapters more than makes up for it!

TEN STARS!!! I'm an over 60 woman. Searched and studied a long while for the right bike rack for my Subaru Outback. I'd hoped to find one I could use for 3 bikes (2 grandkids, was hoping to be able put all our bikes on. Alas, this one does not expand. It does have a two bike maximum.) Realized though that I should be considering the overall weight. This rack at 35# is PERFECTION! I did need to find the best video for assembly (check out Rack Attack and their Sherpa 2.0 video) it's fabulous and that takes you all the way from assembly to putting it on your vehicle's tow hitch and also loading bikes and all the functions. Once I found that it was smooth sailing for the minimal assembly that is required. I was absolutely tickled when I got it put together and carried it out to my car with ease and put it right on the hitch. It tightens down wonderfully with no sway or wiggle. I pick up my bike tomorrow and that should be easy peasy. I plan to take it off when I'm not transporting my bike and that will be absolutely simple. I am thrilled with my purchase! I believe I will come to find it is worth every penny. I'm good about updating as time goes on so if anything changes with my love story, I will post an update.UPDATE: borrowed a bike today from a friend. While I am finishing up my shopping for my bike. I had to drive interstate and it was extremely windy but the bike sat Rock solid in the cradle of the rack. Was fabulous. I'm so happy I bought this rack!!!

By far my favorite hitch rack i've ever owned, easy to put together, comes with all the tools you need, high quality parts and has a very secure tight fit. Would highly recommend

What an awesome bike rack! Easy to use, easy way to lock up the bikes. Extremely sturdy.

Awesome bike rack, it does everything they say it will. Fairly easy to build, but you are probably better off finding a video on YouTube to help you. The best thing about the hitch is how you can tighten the rack in the hitch so that the rack is stable. Even with a bike on the rack it doesn't wobble like all other bike racks that I have owned. I highly recommend it!

Great product and easy to use.

Assembly not too bad.

Love this bike rack. Be careful during assembly when tightening the long bolts. I torqued them to the specified 15 ft-lbs using a torque wrench and it deformed the plastic end cap and aluminum cross member slightly. I recommend using a lower torque with lock tight on the threads. Other than this assembly issue, the rack works well. For as much as this rack costs, though, there should be no issues during assembly. Others have reported the same problem.
