Kuat Piston Pro X

"What if?" - When we asked the question, the Piston Pro X was the answer. Genuine Kashima coated hydro-pneumatic arms make loading and unloading a one-handed operation. Touchless arms grab the tires, keeping your bike secure, and your paint pristine. Low-profile integrated LED tail lights synchronize with your vehicle, providing enhanced rear visibility and on-road safety.

These and many other features culminate in a rack designed, built, and tested to push the envelope and provide you with unparalleled ease of use, peace of mind, and lasting value.

This is the Piston Pro X.

TIGER DRYLAC
The Piston Pro X is finished with TIGER DRYLAC, a class-leading powdercoat designed for the unforgiving conditions of both day-in, day-out commutes and epic road trips alike.
