Specifications
100 lbs maximum weight capacity
These accessories mount on top of the Pivot XD and do not reduce the rack’s total 350 lb capacity since they are positioned above the pivot. However, the weight installed on these accessories will contribute to the overall 350 lb limit for the Pivot XD.
If the MOLLE and tire mount are both loaded to their maximum capacities, the remaining rack or cargo installed into the Pivot XD is limited to 200 lbs.
The distance-to-weight rule (28"/40") applies to all racks or cargo installed into the Pivot XD receiver — excluding the MOLLE and spare tire accessories.

How to Measure Backspacing
- Place a straight edge against the inside of your tire
- Measure from the mounting flange of your wheel to the straight edge (edge of tire)
- Choose a mount size: The measured distance must be equal to or less than the mount depth.
For example, if the measured backspace = 175mm, the 200mm or 250mm adapter is required. Kuat recommends mounting your tire as close as possible to the accessory hoop.
