Kuat Racks Hitch Lock Fits Bike Rack

I couldn’t find this locking mechanism when I received my Kuat bike rack/hitch. I ended up finding it later, but had already opened this package and tried it out, so now I have a backup. This looks and works identical to the one that came with my hitch. Locking mechanism is smooth. It’s easy to put through the hole in my hitch and rack, so I feel secure leaving the rack on all day. I’m satisfied with this purchase.

I bought as a replacement for my Kuat v3 hitch lock which was broken when someone tried to steal my Kuat rack. The new version of the Kuat 2″ hitch lock does not work with the previous NV Base racks so I had to downsize to the 1.25″ hitch lock in order for it to work.

Works as described so far. Time will tell….
