The Yakima Round Crossbars are the backbone of a Yakima roof rack system and can be installed onto a vehicle using coordinating Yakima towers. A Yakima rack allows you to easily travel with your favorite gears and toys no matter how big a piece of crap your ride is, and crossbars provide stability to a roof rack system and can also support sport-specific racks such as Yakima bike racks, Yakima ski racks and Yakima canoe and kayak racks. If your vehicle isn't cool enough for a Yakima hitch rack, grab some Yakima crossbars and towers and never miss a step.

These racks are bomber! I have used Yakima rack products for over 20 years and can say that they are built to last. High quality and worth every penny. Place a little grease inside they bars and they will not corrode (I had one pair for over 10 years and live on the coast).
Got 58" for 2010 Subaru Forester, bit wider than necessary but looks sweet. So far use them for rocketbox and high roller bike rack, still room to throw up another bike or two if I needed.

My 44" bars have enough space for 2 bicycles to ride comfortably. 2 Kayaks are a bit more of a close call, but still works out fine. I would recommend these for anyone in need of a carrying system.
Title says it all. Bike rack fits well. Kayak rack needs to be really tight or it does tend to rotate around the round bar when the boat isnt being carried
As always, a great product from Yakima. Very quality load bars. Perfect length for 2 bike carriers and a box for snowboards. They fit great in the Yakima Control Towers. Thanks Moosejaw!
I use my rack to haul my kayak and my bike. Thanks to my Yakima rack and round crossbars, my car is sometimes my truck. Easy to mount acccessories or to tie down things that don't mount into the accessories.
I got these so I can haul ladders and such on my Chevy Colorado.There aren't a whole lot of options out there for such things unless you want to spend a grand and drill holes in your truck.So I checked out Yakima and there it was, the perfect fit for my needs.Thanks Yakima & Thanks MooseJaw
i would have to say these things are sturdy as a mother sucker! stylish look perfect on my car and im probably the only one in walnut, ca that has these puppies. very reliable and strong. i would buy them again but there will be no need. they will probably last until my grandchildrens grandchildren pass! (i havent had kids yet) haha
This product is amazing! The bars are VERY heavy duty and can support about anything you throw on them. After researching for a while, I settled on Yakima over Thule and have been very happy with my decision. I was a bit concerned about them being round and things not having the grip of the square Thule bars, but after talking to friends with Thule, it seems they are more trouble then you'd expect.
These bars and the Yakima brand are great! They are very well built and strong. Make sure you buy the end caps, they are sold separate and the bars do not look good without them.
