What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"The Class 4 V2 is the rack for people who want a proper J-style carrier without committing to the profile full time. The Flip mount installs and removes in seconds without tools and the folding clamshell drops to a low profile when the kayak is off the roof. Adjustable tilt handles crossbars that aren't perfectly level which matters more than people expect on factory roof setups. Co-molded rubber protects the hull and the rubber-protected cam buckles and included bow and stern lines mean you have everything you need out of the box. Compatible with round, square, and aero crossbars and the included T-channel direct mount kit covers most aftermarket setups."The best gear days start at the put-in, not in the driveway wrestling with a roof rack. The Kuat Class 4 V2 removes that friction entirely. The locking Flip mount goes on and comes off in seconds, the folding clamshell opens to a full J-style carry position when the kayak is loaded and folds back to a clean low profile when it's not. No tools, no complicated adjustments, no reason to leave it at home. Adjustable tilt handles crossbars that aren't perfectly level and the dual action easy pull release lever gets you river-ready with one motion. Co-molded rubber protects the hull across every mile between the driveway and the water, and rubber-protected cam buckles with included bow and stern lines secure the load without improvising. Compatible with round, square, and aero crossbars out of the box, with a T-channel direct mount kit included for aftermarket setups. Rated for kayaks up to 75 pounds and built to handle the miles between here and wherever the river is.
