Overview
The all-new aluminum Sherpa 2.0 resets the standard for user-friendly adventure. Sherpa 2.0 is the latest craze for platform bike racks. It may look just like their other platform bike racks but the critical difference is 0 frame contact. That’s right you read right this bike rack does not touch the frame only the tires which protect your frame 100%. The Sherpa 2.0 features adjustable padded arms and Wheel cradles to accommodate virtually any bike size and can be folded up for compact storage. Folding tire cradles create an abundance of clearance while our foot-activated pivot lever lets you bask in the glory of carrying a bike or eating a breakfast burrito while unfolding your rack simultaneously. Rather than using the hook to grip the bike frame, the Sherpa 2.0 provides a platform for the bike tires to rest in and uses the adjustable hook to grip the tires giving it the 0 contact. This makes loading and unloading bicycles very quick and easy, with excellent stability. The Kuat Sherpa fits 2” receiver tubes. It comes with an anti-rattle lock pin that will allow for a quiet, secure, and movement less ride. Additionally, it brings a steel cable that connects with the anti-rattle pin securing all your bikes to the rack.

My vehicle failed the state inspection because of the bike rack, this video was a lifesaver to help show me how to remove it so I could get my vehicle reinspected and passed! Thank you!

[ricardorico]

Thanks for this video. Exactly what I was looking for. Short, sweet and packed with the info I needed. Appreciate y’all. If I’m ever in Miami, I know where I’m going for rack or hitch needs!

[ColleenMc-M]

Wow. Excellent instructional video. Thank you so much!!!! You helped me feel confident that I will be able to lift and take care of putting this on my Subaru Outback ☺️

Great video! One thing, the way you locked your bike onto the rack makes it super easy to steal. You should wrap the cable through the frame and maybe one of the wheels too if possible. The way you did it makes it so the bike can be disassembled and removed. If you put it through the inside of the frame you'd have to cut the bike or the cable to steal it.

really great video, I sure appreciate the step by step walkthrough

[willie]

Extremely helpful and explained very well. Thank you very much!

[LifesSecretSauce]

great video. these guys installed my Hitch today. 5 stars

[latoya]

Really great video, thank you! I really like this rack. Is this a 1-2inch hitch? Also, do you know if they have 3 bike rack options?

[cordovasantiago]

Did you have any trouble with the heat from the exhaust?

[SuperHornet]

I have the Serpa 2.0 but I see some difference between mines and this one. I have the 1.25 hitch version. Not sure if that's why.

[jeffmurveit]

Very good explanation. Do you recommend this rack or any other similar ones?

How far out does the rack extend out when folded down

[Marck]

Is that piece of cardboard included with the bike rack?

[johannel]

Not a good example of how to mount and secure the bike. The cable could elongate the way it was installed by sliding towards the steerer tube. Also, the arm latching on the front wheel should be against the fork for a tighter and more secure fit.

The design where the hook in the resting position touches the tire cradle ratchet strap is so annoying. The NV doesnt do this.
