Kuat pride themselves on building some of the best bike carriers available in the world. They use precise construction techniques and highest quality materials to make their racks, and offer a lfetime warranty on all their products, this speaks volumes as far as we're concerned.
The Piston Pro has almost all of the bells and whistles as their top of the range Piston Pro X at a better price point. First and foremost it has their innovative OneTap hydro-pneumatic tire arms which secure the bike by both the wheels, giving you one of the most secure attachment systems available that also has no contact with your bike frame, making it suitable for carbon frames and special finishes. Not only does this system grip your bikes stronger than the Hulk but it's also incredibly easy to use with its OneTap design that allows you to release the arms with just a touch of the levers.
The Piston pro is built as tough as possible, with 98% metal construction there's very little plastic that can break with rough handling. Kuat also have payed special attention to the coating on this carrier giving it a Tiger Drylac treatment to ensure it will last longer than you do.
This is a hitch mounted rack which will fit 2in (50mm) size hitches and has a carrying capacity of two bikes with a weight of up to a huge 30kg for each bike. This ample weight allowance makes it suitable for even the heaviest bikes, including most e-bikes.
It's very versatile also as it can fit bikes of any frame design, it secures your bike via the front and rear wheels and it's able to accommodate bikes with wheel diameters of between 20in and 29in. The maximum wheelbase allowable is up to 53in (134cm) and maximum tire width is 5in making suitable for fat bikes too.
The Piston Pro features a foot lever operated folding feature so it can either sit flat against the back of your vehicle in an upright position when not in use or easily lowered into the horizontal position, ready to load your bikes. Plus it has the ability to tilt the carrier down when loaded to allow easy access to the rear of your vehicle anytime you need it.
At times you may run into an issue with two bikes that don't want to fit well together on any bike carrier, the Piston Pro addresses this problem with their patented tool-free FastFit wheel chock adjustment system, so you can find the right position for any bike combo to ensure no bike to bike contact while underway.
For security Kuat include locks for both your bikes and for the carrier itself so you can breathe easy if you have to leave your rig unattended momentarily.
Fitting the carrier to your hitch is a tool free operation using Kuat's patented FlatLock cam hitch mounting system. This makes short work of the task and ensures a rock solid fit, out of the box the carrier does require some assembly though, for more details on installation please refer to the instructions.
Whenever using a rear mounted bike carrier it's wise to use a lightboard with it to display your number plate and for auxiliary lights in case yours are obscured. This is for both safety and for compliance with the law.
Please check your hitch rating and local state laws before using this carrier.
