When you’re loading up for a day on the water, you want a rack that can handle it. The Inno Aero Roof Rack gives you the strength and stability to securely carry your kayaks, canoes, or paddleboards. With a 165-lb weight capacity and sturdy aluminum construction, it stays solid even when fully loaded. You can trust it to keep your gear right where it should be, no matter how far the drive.
Nobody likes wind noise humming over the roof on long trips. The aero-style crossbars on this rack are designed to keep things quiet. The top channels have push-down rubber strips that sit flush against mounts to cut down on whistling and vibration while you drive. It’s a simple design tweak that makes every highway stretch more pleasant and lets the sound of the road stay in the background.
Mounting accessories shouldn’t feel like a project. These crossbars use push-down rubber strips so you can press hardware right into the tracks without trimming anything. The strips close back up around your gear’s mount, sealing out the elements and keeping your setup tidy. It’s straightforward and clean—ready for whatever accessory you want to use next time.
This setup is built to work with almost anything you’d want to haul. Whether it’s a cargo box for a family road trip or a kayak cradle for weekend paddling, the Inno Aero bars accept both channel-mount and clamp-on accessories. They’re also confirmed to work perfectly with the Malone FoldAway-5 Kayak Carrier # MAL38FR, which clamps right on without hassle. Add hood loops like the Malone QuickLash T-Style Hood Loops # MPG308 for easy tie-down points, and you’re set for smooth hauling anywhere you go.
When your adventures take you far from home, it’s good to know your rack will still be there when you get back. The lockable leg covers deter theft so your rack stays secure while parked at campgrounds or trailheads. It’s one less thing to worry about when you’re out exploring.
Ratings & Reviews
worked as expected, I used them to carry my hobie outback kayak (about 100lbs) on my Honda Civic 2016 Coupe (2 doors). They worked with no problem so far (1 year) even under high speed like 70mph.
This kit does not fit well. All measurements have been double and triple checked down to the millimeter. The lock on the covers interfere with the hooks. You have to apply so much pressure to get it to close that it makes the rack come loose. Not very satisfied
I did a lot of searching before selecting this rack for my Durango RT (no factory roof rails). It is easy to reinstall once the initial process is followed, I marked my doorjambs with a sharpie and it is easy to set up. Great product!
Product is great. Fits perfectly with some minor measurement adjustments. Can be assembled by one person, but helps to have two. Bought the complete roof kit and well as the Inno 80 basket for a Mazda CX3, took about two hours to assemble everything.
Installation went pretty smoothly. The trick is to fully understand each step before moving to the next. There are a lot of small parts which at first was a little intimidating, but soon I was able to "get with it". I love the finished product and think you helped me get a good deal. Thank you for that
Love these crossbars, they fit my truck perfectly. Love that they lock too. I feel much safer with them on my truck knowing that they lock.
Great racks. High quality parts. Fit perfectly. Went together easily.
Once I realized which bar was the front one and which was the back it was a fairly easy install. Since the measurements for the foot placement were wrong in the instructions I would suggest not tightening the feet all the way to the bars until you put it on the car. It would have been nice if both sets of rubber pads were the same, with the tunnel hook, and if they had adhesive backing to avoid losing them. I added 2 sided tape.
Has worked great for transporting my fishing Kayak as well as small loads of lumber. It has worked fine for about a dozen and a half boards at a time or a couple of sheets of plywood. Just make sure that you have a good way to strap them down as well as maybe a rubber mat to help hold everything in place. The noise from it on the high way can be a lot but certainly not as bad as some that I have heard. I figure that anything on the outside of a vehicle like that will produce some noise.
We have actually not driven on a freeway with the rack on top so that will have to be another review. Company has excellent customer service and provided information before we even knew we needed to ask for it. :-) One note: installation measurements were a little difficult to understand exactly and we were 5/8"less that what they recommended for both front and back bars. Everything seems to be mounted securely so we hope nothing is messed up. We 100% recommend etrailer.com. A person answers the phone when you call. What a concept!
Great product, good quality. I had a budget, and this fit the bill.
Ideally, I would love for the crossbars to line up with the rails.
The customer service was A+++ I would order again from etrailer.com any time!
These feet are easy to use and go well wit the Inno system. I was worried since my car did not come with any roof racks, but this is the solution to haul things on my roof. They work well and are very secure.
I have had countless bike racks over the years and this is by far the best system I have ever had. Fits like a glove on my F150. Easy to install, looks great and the bikes do not move when on the roof.
Started assembly last summer and finally completed installation this spring. Directions took a lot of attention to detail but were adequate. Rack went on car securely and looks great. Have attached kayak rack and a roof pod and both worked flawlessly. Would definitely recommend.
These are made perfectly for your vehicle. They are very secure when combined with the other Inno products. No worries of the rack system coming off. Using them to transport kayaks using kayak holders.
Tule and Yakima did not have a rack for my Nissan murano. So it was a blessing to find the immo rack. It seems like it can fit any car model. It's strong and secure. I feel my equipment will be safe with this rack.
etrailer was the only vendor who had the custom fit roof rack feet I needed for my vehicle. I was trying to put a roof rack onto a Dodge Durango SRT...not a typical vehicle for this accessory! I looked everywhere for a suitable roof rack and thought I was settling by ordering the Inno kit from etrailer. I could not have been more wrong! I am so happy with the purchase!
Wanted to keep my 64"Thule square load bars from my older roof rack since Thule changed the load bars to the new v bottom cut version. Read from the reviews that inno rack still allows you to use the old Thule bars.
Large cost savings instead of having to buy brand new rack. Inno rack feet with (old)Thule cross bars work fine with a wind surfer and Thule box! instructions say for a 2016 MDX bare roof but fits my 2022 mdx and well.
Waste of money. Most annoying couple hours spent in a long time. Extremely disappointed. Does not fit well. Not exactly a cheap option, but a cheap option in terms of fit and engineering. The instructions online and in the kits do not agree. But there is no helping the design. Plus there are no universal set of instructions--they are all individual items for the fit kit, the bars, etc. But a reasonably inclined person can figure it out so no big deal, but the engineering design is garbage--requires precise measurement yet the design is such that exact measurement is impossible due to the design.
Additionally, the parts are low quality Either low density plastic or easily stripped bolts. Even when as precise as possible, I wouldn't trust it with my kayak. What a mistake. Do yourself a favor and get a Yakima trailer or similar. It isn't that much more money in the scheme of things and then it isn't tied to your car. Can add a hitch to most vehicles anyway.
Installation was a little tricky but once the "feet" were attached to the roof and the bars properly spaced, everything wrapped up very well.
There is no noticeable wind noise with these installed.
I bought these as part of a kit with 60" Aero bars and the appropriate kit for my 14 Flex. I spent probably an hour and a half double checking my measurements and getting them torqued down properly. I spaced the bars on top of the car just a little wider than proscribed because I was planning on carrying 4x8 plywood, and it looked better to my eye. One thing to watch for: The instructions for the car-specific kit (in my case INK263) show the foot spacing measurements for a square bar, and the measuring point for these feet and Aero bars is different. That measurement point is indicated in the instructions for the feet, not the kit. Same numbers, just different reference point. Otherwise, they look good and are rock solid.
We recently purchased 2 kayaks & Thule roof racks from our local outdoor store.
After waiting 2 weeks for our roof racks and J bars to come in we found that the Thule racks did not fit our 2017 Lincoln MKX and they didn't make any racks that would. The vehicle does not have roof racks and has a moon roof.
After a couple of days searching the internet we discovered etrailer.com. We found the Inno roof racks, but still was not sure they would work. We spoke to a repesenative and he assured us that the racks we chose would fit and the Thule J bars we did return would also work. As you can see by the photos 2 days later we were happy Kayakers.
The Inno roof rack is an excellent product and etrailer.com provides exceptional service with videos, email, chat and phone. I bought this roof rack for my 2008 Ford Edge because because there is enough clearance for the moon roof. I use it to mount a 600W solar system for rustic camping instead of a noisy generator. I wish I'd taken a photo... I won't be mounting it again until mid-August 2024.
Worked like a charm. My daughter and I completed a 10K mile, 35 day camping trip around the USA.
