The \u003cstrong\u003eKuat Ratchet Arm Assembly 2.0 with Retainer Cap and Bolt\u003c\/strong\u003e is the factory replacement arm for Kuat's NV 2.0 series: the NV 2.0, NV 2.0 Add-On, and NV Base 2.0 platform hitch racks. If you have one of those racks and the front ratchet arm is damaged or no longer holding firmly, this is the correct replacement. Everything you need for the swap arrives in one kit — the inner ratchet arm, two ratchet ladders, retainer cap, bolt, and all necessary hardware.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCompatibility note:\u003c\/strong\u003e This assembly is designed specifically for the NV 2.0 generation of Kuat racks. It does not fit the original NV (pre-2.0) or the Sherpa 2.0, both of which use different arm designs. If you're unsure which rack you have, the model name is printed on a label on the rack's hitch arm or cradle tray.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe ratchet arm is the component that clamps your bike's top tube in place during transport. When it's functioning properly, your bike stays firmly held through corners, highway speeds, and rough pavement. Replacing a worn assembly restores that holding force to spec — rather than working around a part that no longer functions as designed. Available in Black Metallic, Grey Metallic, and Matte Black to match your existing rack finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eKuat Ratchet Arm Assembly 2.0 Specs at a Glance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"specs_at_a_glance\"\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompatible racks:\u003c\/strong\u003e Kuat NV 2.0, NV 2.0 Add-On, NV Base 2.0\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNot compatible with:\u003c\/strong\u003e NV (original\/pre-2.0), Sherpa 2.0, or other Kuat models\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncludes:\u003c\/strong\u003e Inner ratchet arm, two ratchet ladders, retainer cap, bolt, and hardware\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor options:\u003c\/strong\u003e Black Metallic, Grey Metallic, Matte Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer:\u003c\/strong\u003e Kuat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Kuat","offers":[{"title":"Black Metallic","offer_id":44795403730988,"sku":"017-026-00-01","price":55.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Grey Metallic","offer_id":44795403763756,"sku":"017-026-00-02","price":55.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Matte Black","offer_id":44795403796524,"sku":"017-026-00-04","price":55.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0608\/7684\/9196\/files\/kuat-ratchet-arm-assembly-20-with-retainer-cap-and-bolt-9521686.jpg?v=1771292713","url":"https:\/\/ricycles.com\/products\/kuat-ratchet-arm-assembly-2-0-with-retainer-cap-and-bolt","provider":"RA Cycles","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
