Pivot Pro Hitch Loading

QuietKat eBikes has launched its Pivot Pro hitch rack, designed to load eBikes onto a car or truck without the need for lifting. This innovative rack allows users to roll heavy eBikes and standard bikes onto the rack by pivoting to one side, allowing an arm to go from the rack to the ground and providing a ramp to simply roll the bike up. Additionally, it is equipped with silent toothless ratchet arms, providing stealthy and noise-free loading.

Aingle Pivot Pro Hitch

This bike rack was designed with QuietKats in mind but will work with most other bikes including mountain, road, gravel, city and more. The pivoting mechanism, large bike-to-bike spacing, and increased strength were all targeted for use with QuietKats but add benefits when using with other bikes as well.

Not only does the Pivot Pro Hitch Rack offer convenience, but it also boasts strength and durability. The smooth steel arm retention rails, reinforced arm pivot pins, reinforced arms, and steel pivot plates ensure that bikes remain secure and stable during transportation, especially on gravel roads and over rough terrain. With a weight capacity of up to 100 pounds per bike, this rack can easily accommodate two heavy bikes and is constructed of a robust steel design, unlike many other eBike racks that were designed with standard bikes in mind.

Double Pivot Pro Hitch

Jake Roach, President, and Co-Founder of QuietKat, commented on the development of the Pivot Pro hitch rack, saying, "When we first started designing the Pivot Pro Hitch Rack, we knew that it had to be as easy to use as the bikes we put on them. Safe, simple, strong, and they had to allow any user to load a bike by themselves. The new Pivot Pro does all of that and more.”

Alligator Hunting Opportunities Are Expanding

This year, both Florida and Louisiana are expanding or introducing new opportunities for alligator hunts. For decades, Florida has estimated that there are over one million in the state—it is, of course, hard to count alligators. Louisiana now says its alligator population exceeds three million. The two states have managed their alligator populations very differently over the last half century, but now both are expanding hunting opportunities to help manage alligator populations.
