Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I picked up this rack recently because I had to transport my 15' kayak on a highway at 70 mph for a couple of hours. Rack easily bolted to my existing factory crossbars on a 2005 Subaru Outback. The shape of the mounting blocks are made to adapt to nearly any factory, Thule or Yakima Cross Bars as far as I can tell. Once bolted on they feel very secure and I had no issues on my 4 hour trip there and back.
The fold down feature of the PRO was worth the price increase to me especially if you are planning on mounting on an SUV that has to fit in a garage. It has a large handle that you simply pull up and it allows the J bar to rotate up and down and lock in both positions. The other bonus is having the bow and stern racheting tie downs included. These are excellent and make it very quick and completely stable.
The only thing I need to get now is some locks to ensure that this great new rack doesn't walk away since it is just 8 wing nuts holding them on. The price is high but there is enough solid engineering between the rack itself and the accessories included to definately recommend this rack.
