nice review!! I feel the speed round should have included taking the rack from the garage installing on the vehicle and then putting the bikes on. would like to see that!
Kuat means strong in Indonesian btw. Just as Macan, as in Porsche, means Tiger. Pronounced Koo-at but with no pause for the hyphen. Macan should be pronounced Machan but that won't happen. The way the car is pronounced means to eat.
Nice review. If you want it to be comprehensive, include at least 1 bike with fenders and a rear trunk rack. Not everyone rides bare bikes as you do. Thanks!
Nice vid showcasing actual usage. Should have probably mentioned the Kuat is almost double the price of the Thule, which is already not very cheap anymore. My T2 was like $400 a few years before COVID (I think?).
You left out the most critical issue- how sturdy is it , is there bouncing around and flexing on the rack? For the Thule is there an issue when using a Front fender? video was the most basic of basic. Also its a tie on racking when you pay attention of the slowness of thule guy putting bike on ground and picking up.
Nice video comparison. You mention fat bikes work with the Thule (5" I think you said). What about the Kuat, does it work for fat bikes? What is the max tire width?
can you choose to take the wheels off if clearance is an option? Seperate question we may put on a 2023 wrangler that has a spare tire and camera on back - can we add an extension to the Thule

My choice is the Thule Easyfold XT. Works with bikes with fender

Nice comparison of two very nice and capable racks. Need to wait for a sale! 😂
2nd hand market is pretty good too

How about for bikes with fenders?
How far is closest bike from car?
Warrenties? Customer service?

Nice racks. Almost bought the Thule last summer but I just cant pull the trigger (even with a competitivecyclist coupon)

I don't want anything but a lightweight, low-features but foldable bike carrier (wheel supported) without paying a paycheck for one.
1up is a more cost effective option that is simple and will last a lifetime
Do security mechanisms for your bike come on the kuat?

5" on the Kuat as well!
I love how the T2 mounts on to the car, would like to know how Kuat mounts? T2 turn handle is so nice compared to my old T2.. answer?

Price !!
Kashima pistons 🤤
how does the 1UP Extreme Duty rack compare to these?
weaker. i believe all 1up have aluminum shanks which is why they cant be used in an RV. kuat shanks are steel.
It about 6.5 KM ON ONE SIDE
To school
Please help me

Both are too heavy to easily put on and off the car. Kuat costs twice what the Thule does.
