2.5″-2″ Reducer

This product will reduce the size of a 2.5″ hitch receiver down to a 2″ hitch receiver so that the Mach2 2″ bike rack will work with the larger 2.5″ receiver. We manufacture this reducer / adapter for our Mach2 2″ rack. It is made of steel and zinc-plated to prevent rust. Using QuikrStuff’s adapter–as opposed to a third-party adapter–is the only way to retain the Mach2’s ability to snug tightly in the receiver and provide the famous QuikrStuff no-wobble-at-the-hitch. It also allows you to keep using your Captive Safety Pin. Using a third-party adapter with our style of hitch almost always results in play and rattle. Additionally, the use of third-party products voids the warranty on the QuikrStuff Mach2 bike rack. It is also possible to use two of these to reduce a 3″ receiver to accept a 2″ rack. For 3.0″ to 2″ – You can use a standard hitch pin (5/8″) in your receiver if you use a quantity of two of our 2.5″-2.0″ reducers. Insert the pin, then tighten the rack into the receiver.  For 2.5″ to 2″ QuikrStuff reducer – Depending on your vehicle’s hitch pin receiver hole you may be able to use a 3/8″ (or smaller) diameter locking hitch pin.  Click here for instructions on how to use the reducer(s).
