Sherpa™ V3

The Sherpa V3 is Kuat’s next evolution of lightweight bike transportation: purpose-built for road, cross country, and gravel riders who value elegant design, easy usability, and premium construction.

Crafted from lightweight aluminum and available in both 1.25” and 2” hitch sizes, the Sherpa V3 delivers a refined carrying experience without unnecessary bulk. Designed around modern road, cross-country, gravel, and compatible e-bikes, the Sherpa V3 supports bikes up to 50 lbs per bike, while an increased maximum wheelbase of 50” expands compatibility across a wider range of bikes, all while maintaining the sleek, minimalist profile riders have come to expect from the Sherpa.

New for V3 is an updated hand- and foot-operated pivot system with lock-out functionality, designed to help keep the rack securely in position during both stow and transit. The updated all-metal front tire hook improves durability and secure bike fit.

Expanding the Sherpa lineup for more riders and vehicle setups, the Sherpa V3 is now available in a modular single-bike configuration in Sandy Black, giving solo riders a lighter, more compact option with the flexibility to add a second bike tray when needed.

Available in four premium colors - Sandy Black, Pearl, Gray, and the all-new Champagne finish - the Sherpa V3 blends well with today’s adventure vehicles and elevated cycling styling.

From local group rides and weekend gravel escapes to cross-country adventures, the Sherpa V3 makes transporting your bike feel like a natural part of the journey.

LIGHT BY DESIGN

Aluminum construction makes the Sherpa V3 one of the lightest platform racks in its class. The Sherpa V3 is a natural fit for road, gravel, cross-country, and select lightweight e-bikes.

LOAD AND GO

Loading takes seconds. Lift the bike onto the tray, position the front tire hook next to the fork, and cinch the rear tire strap.

One Or Two Bikes

Start with the single-bike rack, then add a second bike with the 1-Bike Add-On when your ride list grows. Same 50 lbs per bike either way.

TRUNK ACCESS

Drop the rack with the hand- or foot-operated pivot to clear the hatch and grab any gear in the back. Tilt back up to lock in place and you're ready to drive.

FRONT TIRE HOOK

Swing the all-metal front hook onto the tire and it holds. It’s redesigned for a firmer grip and a longer service life.

INTEGRATED REAR TIRE STRAP

The tire strap cinches the rear wheel to the tray, so the bike stays planted from the driveway to the trailhead.

PIVOT PEDAL LOCKOUT

Push the pedal to tilt the rack down for hatch access or up to stow. The lockout holds it in position through transit.

SIZED FOR MODERN BIKES

Each tray takes 20–32" wheels and tires up to 3" wide, cradling road, gravel, and cross-country bikes alike. Every Sherpa V3 includes one wheel adapter for wheel sizes 20-24".
