Folding Kayak roof Rack Adjustable for Kayak/Canoe/SUP,J-Bar Rack on Roof Mounting On SUV, Car and Truck Crossbars. (23-krf-2)

This has worked great for two 10ft kayaks I have used it for. The straps are good and the ratchet ropes for securing the front and rear of kayaks are great. Not really easy to install but not too hard either. Love that they fold down. They are sturdy and I would recommend them!

Easy installation, secure fit (on an oval rail). Great foam padding. Comes with 4 ratchet straps, which work very well, and 4 S-hook, pulley tie downs, also 4 carry straps with handles. Bigger kayaks, wider than 2 feet across will require the center upright to be locked in past 90 degrees, which means you cannot put two kayaks on the roof at once. It is perfect for larger kayas, like the Perception Outlaw 11.5. You will hear the wind at any speed over 40 MPH, it whistles through the mount even when not in use and in the locked down position. That is just the way it is, and not a ding against the mount.

The system works...but the fact it has like 100+ parts to the assembly is annoying. The installation isn't straight forward...and if you have a roof rack on your 4Runner, it can make it a little interesting.Once it is installed...don't take it off lol...because I am not keeping up with those parts and dealing with the install again.

I just installed these on my Thule Wingbar cross-rails and they fit very nicely, were quick and easy to install, are made very sturdy and look great! I like how it has knobs to tighten, instead of the lever most competitors have. Can't wait to use this over the weekend!

Easy to install and put together. I personally love these compared to the last set I bought which were singles.

Color me impressed. I have been driving on the highways at the speed limit & it has been rock solid. Only thing I’d say that could be better is the hardware (nuts/bolts) while heavier duty than the crappy jbars I bought previously, do rust if untreated. But no complaints, really very pleased.

The Folding Kayak Roof Rack offers convenience and stability for transporting kayaks, but its suitability varies depending on the kayak's width and user's needs.**Pros:**1. This roof rack accommodates kayaks of varying widths, making it suitable for average-sized kayaks.2. Once strapped down securely, the rack effectively keeps kayaks in place during transportation, even at highway speeds like on i95.3. The ability to fold the rack when not in use adds to its convenience, allowing for easy storage when not transporting kayaks.**Cons:**1. While it works well with average-sized kayaks, it may not be the best fit for wider or heavier fishing kayaks. Users may experience difficulty loading and unloading solo, and the kayak may tend to tip over during this process.2. Loading and unloading larger or heavier kayaks may require assistance from another person, which can be inconvenient for solo kayakers.**Overall Assessment:**The Folding Kayak Roof Rack is a reliable option for transporting kayaks, especially for those with average-sized models. While it may struggle with wider or heavier kayaks, with proper securing and assistance during loading, it can still provide a satisfactory transport solution. However, individuals with heavier or wider kayaks may want to consider alternative rack options for greater convenience and safety.

I like how it folds down. I did have to buy longer bolts due to the fact that my truck rack is extra thick. No complaints.
