A reasonably good rack but inferior to the Yakima Jay Low rack for a few reasons. My car has a "teardrop" rack and the Yakima design with it's notched foam sits better on my rack than the Thule system which is hard to keep vertical. Another important difference is the lock down mechanism. The Yakima has two large knobs that are easy to work with, the Thule uses a fairly small allen wrench to tighten the securing straps. This takes a lot longer to install the brackets and eventually either the allen wrench or, more concerning, the allen screw in the bracket will strip out which would make the bracket unable to be installed. Both are priced similar. I am returning the Thule as I consider it to be not as well designed, as the Yakima kayak brackets.

They're very sturdy and fold down so I can still park in the garage. Easy to clamp on. They're the only crossbars I have found that securely latch on to very thin crossbars. A little pricey though but I guess you pay for a unique design. Not too noisy when driving in the folded down position.

Bought two of these for carrying my sons and my kayaks on my Impreza. Really easy to install. Fits and looks great too! Very secure and they've been on quite a few trips this last month already.They were pretty spendy but I expect great quality from the Thule brand. I think I paid 250 per set plus tax. They arrived within a few days!The fold down / fold up feature works fine, but it does take some strength. I am only 5'5" so I have to stand up on the inner part of the door to get the right leverage. I wish the handle action was a little smoother when locking / unlocking, but it shouldn't be a problem for most folks or you could leave them up all season? I am kind of weak right now đ

Jag trodde först att den inte passade min lasthĂ„llare, Volvo Vingbalk, men det visade sig att jag inte öppnat den tillrĂ€ckligt. Har sedan tidigare 848000 som har âklorâ frĂ„n sidan som griper om vingbalken. Denna hĂ„llare sluter istĂ€llet om balken men som sagt mĂ„ste man öppna den helt annars rĂ€cker den inte om balken. Konstigt dock att Thules support inte stĂ€llde motfrĂ„gan om jag öppnat den helt.

Install is very straight forward. Works great on Subaru Outback OEM racks.

Donât buy anything else if you have genuine Tesla roof bars. These are the only ones that truly fit. Expensive but worth it.

The package contains a pair of these mounts. This isn't made clear in the description. I have these mounted on a wing bar evo on a 10th gen Civic and they work great. I've hauled 1 and 2 kayaks with these and they are solid very high quality. Easy to install really nothing bad to say about them.

Works well with a 24 Honda Pilot and factory cross bars. Easy install and seems very well made. Holds kayak securely. Folds flat for parking in garage. Minimal wind noise when installed. Would recommend two sets if carrying two kayaks although it will technically hold two if you buy an extra strap.

These pair of cradles are excellent for transporting multiple kayaks. I Love the fact that they collapse also! I went with Thule because of their rugged reputation and sporty look.

I have a 5th gen (2021) RAV4, and 2 pairs of the older style j mounts from Thule, both the original style and the redesigned style, both are great, but sometimes at work I end up having to park in a low clearance parking garage, I had to spend time one morning removing them just to park the car. these were a great fix to the problem, the clearance between the top of the mount and the ceiling in the parking garage is about an inch, so these were perfect to add on. they are easy to fold down and back up loading is pretty easy me and my wife can get kayaks loaded in a few minutes. I am even able to unload a kayak off the roof by myself. We are considering getting a pair for my wife's car so she could go kayaking without me (the RAV4 is too high for her to load and unload on her own).
