Can Yakima KeelOver Canoe Rack Install on Aero Bars that Aren't Perfectly Level
Updated 04/28/2025 | Published 04/26/2025
Question:
My 2019 crosstrek has the factory aero bars. They are a bit on a slant/off camber. Im not talking about the shape, I mean the bars are literally not parallel with the roofline. I know if i had round bars i could level these evenkeels no problem. However with aerobars, will inhave any type of adjustability to make these level? Thanks

Hey Andrew, there's a bit of flexibility in how you could attach the KeelOver rack part # Y04069 to your crossbars which would allow you to compensate for the top or bottom of your bars not being perfectly flat but in general usually the top of a crossbar is pretty flat. Is it possible that while yours aren't parallel with the roof they still happen to be level relative to the ground?
