Kuat has been making high-end bike racks for many years, but they really one-upped themselves when they created the Piston Pro X.

"When we started designing this hitch rack, we knew we wanted bike hauling with no contact on the frame, integrated LED taillights, adjustable tire chock slides for all bike sizes and tires, and the most durable materials and coatings. All things we knew we wanted in a hitch rack but had never seen together in one.

Until now. Meet the Piston® Pro X hitch rack. This bike rack is all metal and can safely transport bikes and electric bikes weighing up to 67 lbs. per tray. With just one tap the pneumatic arms open wide, grab your bike tire perfectly, with no contact with the frame.

And we went there with Kashima coating. Beautiful and amazingly durable, it surely makes bells and whistles jealous.

Whether you’re rolling on smallish wheels or beefy tires, you won’t need any adapters or tools to make them fit. Just squeeze and slide the adjustable wheel chocks to hold 18”-29” tires.

Plus, our brightest idea yet. The integrated LED taillights on this hitch rack. They synchronize seamlessly with your car, truck, SUV, or RV, providing enhanced rear visibility and on-road safety.

When it comes to security, the hitch lock keeps the bike rack secured so no one can slide it out when you’re not looking, and the semi-integrated 12mm cable lock makes sure your bike stays locked up tight while looking tight.

These and many other features culminate in a bike rack designed, built, and tested to push the envelope and provide you with unparalleled ease of use, peace of mind, and lasting value."
