The Kuat Racks NV Base 2.0 Add-On (BAO2B) from Nomadic Supply Company® transforms your existing NV Base 2.0 rack from a two-bike carrier into a three- or four-bike hauling powerhouse with minimal effort. Built with the same premium craftsmanship as the base rack, the Kuat Racks NV Base 2.0 Add-On (BAO2B) delivers integrated security, electric-bike compatibility, and a refined matte finish that looks as good on the trail as it does in the driveway.
Whether you are heading out solo or loading up for the whole crew, the Kuat Racks NV Base 2.0 Add-On (BAO2B) makes expanding your hauling capacity straightforward and tool-free. The adjustable front tire cradle system accommodates a wide range of bike sizes and frame geometries, so every rider in the group can lock their bike in with confidence, regardless of sidebar or seat post clearance concerns.
Security is built into every tray of the Kuat Racks NV Base 2.0 Add-On (BAO2B) through fully integrated cable locks that stow magnetically when not in use, keeping the rack clean and tangle-free on the road. Combined with a co-molded rear tire strap that protects wheel finishes and an intuitive front tire ratchet release, the Kuat Racks NV Base 2.0 Add-On (BAO2B) is designed to protect your investment from the moment you load up to the moment you hit the trail.
Kuat Racks NV Base 2.0 Add-On (BAO2B) Features:
- 1-Bike Add-On: Quick change from two to three bikes, expanding the capacity of your existing NV Base 2.0 without replacing the entire rack.
- 2-Bike Add-On: Quick change from two to four bikes, giving larger groups the carrying capacity they need in a single upgrade.
- Adjustable Front Tire Cradle System: Bikes not wanting to share space nicely? Easily dial in the fit with adjustable tire scoops. With three positions to choose from, sidebar and seat post clearance are never an issue.
- Fully Integrated Cable Locks: Integrated cable locks — long enough to reach most frames — can be looped through the rear triangle to help keep the bike secure. When not in use, they stow neatly back into the rack with a magnetic hold. One cable lock per tray.
- Front Tire Ratchet with Intuitive Release: The front tire ratchet features an intuitive release mechanism that makes loading and unloading bikes quick and effortless on every trip.
- Rear Tire Strap with Co-Molded Protection: The rear tire strap features a co-molded strap to protect wheels from scratches and damage during transport, preserving your bike’s finish mile after mile.
- Premium Matte Powder Coat: A premium matte powder coat finish provides a durable, refined look that resists wear and stands up to the elements on every adventure.
- Compatible with the 2″ NV 2.0 / Base 2.0: The Kuat Racks NV Base 2.0 Add-On (BAO2B) is designed exclusively for use with 2″ NV Base 2.0 models, ensuring a secure and seamless fit with your existing rack system.
- Trail Doc: Part of the reason we call it the NV Base 2.0 is because it doesn’t come equipped with the Trail Doc. If you want to add the Trail Doc later, you can. The matte black Trail Doc can be purchased as an accessory and added at anytime. And, just because it’s the base version of our NV 2.0 doesn’t mean it’s basic. Trust us.
