Pros & Cons

Pros

This adapter is for kuat racks only, and is better than other generic 2 to 1. Seems to work great with my thule t2 pro xt 2 bike rack. The screw provided allows me to attach the adapter to the sherpa rack.

It is a very nice piece of extruded aluminum that is made to bolt onto their 1. Base and my 2017 toyota tacoma with factory tow package. The rack is stiffer than it was in a 1 1/4 hitch.
