Smoothly swing up to a 4-bike rack to the side for clear access to tailgates, rear doors, and hatchbacks. And when it’s time to load up, the locking mechanism makes sure your rack only moves when you want it to. Review: Excellent design - The Kuat swing arm is a great piece of kit. Using a hitch receiver provides flexibility and utility not delivered by other products. You can also order left (US Driver's) or right side swing versions. If not using a Kuat bike rack you may need to think through the arm’s secondary hitch mounting and anti-rattle devices to get the best solution for your needs e.g. 'LetsGoAero' silent hitch pins. I’ve used a EU ISO std ball hitch with a Thule bike rack (Thule wont sell their hitch version in Europe :( ) Overall I can’t fault it. Review: Where's the upside down pineapple? Does loving this rack make me a "swinger" - I bought an Lectric XP4 e-bike that I wanted to transport on my Class B Ram Promaster van. When I added the rear storage box, it did have an option to add bike "pegs" but the weight limit was 40 lbs. Due to the rear storage box, I needed a hitch that I could easily swing away to access my rear doors and things in my storage box. There are pricier options but the build quality of the Kuat is top notch! It's also very easy to assemble. Like, don't have your life together and you're leaving for a trip that same day and can still get it on your vehicle safely lol I wasn't sure if it was compatible with the Iron Deer bike rack that I also bought on desertcart, but when I was watching an Iron Deer install video (on YT) the vehicle in the video had a Kuat rack. I can access the latch from either side. When I first installed it, my dumb butt was crawling under the rear storage box to lift up the latch then swing it away. You can access it Sylvester Stallone style by going "Over the Top". It comes with a hitch lock which is nice. I also really love that you have the option to choose which side you want it to pivot to. For reference, even when all the "junk in the trunk" of my van I did not need to use a hitch extender. I even have the full size basket mounted on my bike and it doesn't rub up against the box. All in all Kuat is a quality product and at a very fair price. Buy once, cry once. I took the whole setup down to Mammoth Cave this past weekend and I didn't have a single issue. If you also want a rack that is awesome I love this Iron Deer one. ## Features - Clearance for tailgates or rear doors - Proprietary FLATLOCK cam system - Locking hitch pin - Lifetime Warranty ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B07YVGYPHS | | Automotive Fit Type | Universal Fit | | Best Sellers Rank | 658,151 in Automotive ( See Top 100 in Automotive ) 889 in Bike Carriers | | Brand | Kuat | | Brand Name | Kuat | | Colour | Passenger Side/Black | | Compatible with Vehicle Type | Hatchback | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 414 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00857373008177 | | Is Foldable | No | | Item Dimensions | 86 x 50.8 x 20.3 centimetres | | Item Weight | 17.69 kg | | Item dimensions L x W x H | 86 x 50.8 x 20.3 centimetres | | Item weight | 17.69 kg | | Load Capacity | 2.5E+2 lbs | | Manufacturer | Kuat | | Manufacturer Part Number | PVP20B | | Material | Metal | | Material Type | Metal | | Model Number | PVP20B | | Mounting Type | Hitch | | OEM Equivalent Part Number | 857373008177 | | UPC | 857373008177 | | Unit Count | 1.0 count | | Vehicle service type | Hatchback | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Kuat - **Colour:** Passenger Side/Black - **Is foldable:** No - **Item dimensions L x W x H:** 86 x 50.8 x 20.3 centimetres - **Item weight:** 39 Pounds - **Load capacity:** 2.5E+2 lbs - **Material:** Metal - **Mounting type:** Hitch - **OEM part number:** 857373008177 - **Vehicle service type:** Hatchback ## Images ![Kuat Pivot 2-2" Swing Away Extension for Kuat Bike Racks (Passenger Side) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51e2h8LRg2L.jpg) ![Kuat Pivot 2-2" Swing Away Extension for Kuat Bike Racks (Passenger Side) - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51PJDDoxAYL.jpg) ![Kuat Pivot 2-2" Swing Away Extension for Kuat Bike Racks (Passenger Side) - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51FsMZrw3DL.jpg) ![Kuat Pivot 2-2" Swing Away Extension for Kuat Bike Racks (Passenger Side) - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41LhKZjs9KL.jpg) ![Kuat Pivot 2-2" Swing Away Extension for Kuat Bike Racks (Passenger Side) - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61rb6YjJZAL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Is this the V2 rack? The drivers side image is for the old version.** A: You can order either a left side or right side swing with the V2. **Q: How much weight will this hold? 200lbs? Also, will it double as a spare tire holder and a bike carrier?** A: It is rated at 250#. Yes it will hold a bike or spare tire carrier. **Q: Does it swing far enough to clear the tailgate of a full size truck?** A: By far. It goes beyond 90 degrees. **Q: How much does it rattle/wiggle when it’s fully loaded while driving on the highway?** A: It doesn’t rattle at all. It has a mechanical wedge that is tightened with a large Allen wrench when the unit is installed in the receiver and the swivel point is a very large bearing that has no play in it. It is a well built and high quality. Also it has has a large Over center lever type clamp to prevent any rattle while in use. Make sure you buy the version 2 because the the version 1 does not have the bearing it uses a pin that will wear out in time. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent design *by K***H on 27 April 2024* The Kuat swing arm is a great piece of kit.
