The Küat NV 2.0 improves the finish and rigidity of the rack and accepts all the latest tire sizes.
Lowdown: Küat NV 2.0 Hitch Rack
Küat changed the game a few years ago, introducing a hitch rack that looked as good as it performed. Now they’ve launched v2.0, which like its predecessor includes a bike stand. We’re not sure how much use it actually gets, but Küat went ahead and improved the usability of the stand in the second version of this rack. They’ve also learned a lot about current needs and trends, including building in compatibility for all the new wheel and tire sizes. To learn more check out the full review below, starting with this video demo.

Review: Küat NV 2.0 Hitch Rack
The Küat NV 2.0 is a significant improvement over the first version in terms of features, fit and finish. Wheel size compatibility is the most noticeable update, but every feature of this rack has been improved. It also continues to be a standout in the looks department. And its other unique feature, an integrated bike work stand, has been improved as well.
The pivoting chassis has been improved to be smoother and have less play.
Installation
The rack has a tool-free cam system that wedges into the hitch. The knob has a bladed arm that is easy to turn and torque. A locking hitch pin is included as a safety measure in case the cam gets loose. And it has a lock too to prevent theft of the rack.
