These crossbars are built from galvanized steel to give you a solid foundation for hauling your favorite gear. Whether you're loading up kayaks, canoes, or a cargo box for your next trip, the 165-lb weight capacity keeps everything secure. The black vinyl coating protects the bars from corrosion so they hold up season after season, even when exposed to rain and road grime.
The setup comes complete with 2 RoundBars, 4 SkyLine towers, 4 RoundBar adapters, and a custom fit kit—all designed to work together as a single roof rack system. You don’t need extra pieces to get up and running. It’s a straightforward way to add a dependable platform for weekend adventures or long-distance travel.
If you’ve already got kayak carriers, cargo baskets, or ski holders that clamp around bars, these will fit right in. The round profile makes it simple to attach accessories that use standard clamps, so you can reuse gear you already trust instead of starting over with new mounts.
You can add Yakima Same Key System (SKS) lock cores (sold separately) to help deter theft of the rack when parked at a trailhead or campground. It’s an easy way to keep your setup secure without adding bulk or hassle.
The black finish gives the rack a clean look while shielding the steel underneath from rust and wear. With a limited lifetime warranty backing it up, these 48" long x 1-1/8" diameter bars are made to handle years of hauling without losing their strength or stability.

Ratings & Reviews
Product works as advertised thus far. When you buy the yakima towers, you are required to purchase these as well to fit the rounder bars (I feel sure there are other adapters for other bar shapes). These should have come with the towers in my opinion, and I resented having to shell out more $$ to purchase these "must have" adapters to mount my bars. 3 star overall rating based on function, price. Delivery and packaging was top-notch through etrailer.
functioned as promised
Amazing quality easy set up fast shipping buy the locks the 4 pack With this fast shipping super impressed
I bought both the roof rack and the cage from etrailer! Put everything on myself...easy peasy!
Excellent service and fast shipping.
Roof rack on my 2005 Chevy Uplander. Also ordered the Q towers and fairing.
Straightforward installation to adapt the new SkyLine towers to the standard Yakima round bars.
Kimberly has shown that great customer service is not dead! etrailer and Kimberly are great to work with and have earned my business and will always be the 1st and last place I look for my rack+ needs!
As for the application, I needed more space to fit my cargo box on top of my 4Runner TRD Pro’s rack. I came up this this… Thank you!
As all yakima products not the cheapest but work
The landing pads fit the car just fine, but I did have a lot of trouble getting the crossbars into the pockets of the landing pads and then getting the pins to actually expand outward and lock into the pads, I may have to take a Dremel tool and increase the opening of the landing pad slightly.
Bought as a pkg for my 2017 Golf R with Round Bars since I had a bunch of Yakima bike racks and a canoe gunwale rack for my old Yakima set up. Installation was easy with good instructions. All measurements from the Yakima site appear to be spot on.
etrailer.com shipped these out quickly and all parts arrived without damage.
The Yakima roof rack system is an Outstanding product. I purchased the product to replace the OEM roof rack because it was too flimsy to carry the tandem bike mount and my bike. The Yakima roof rack is solid and provides me the peace of mind while hauling my bike on the roof of my car. etrailer provided the product for the best price as always.
Roof Rack 2008 Saturn Astra The roof rack arrived one day early...The packaging was excellent and the quality of the product more than met my expectations. The instructions made the insulation very easy. It took less than 45 minutes to install the unit complete.
Have been rocking my Yakima rack from etrailer.com for a year now. I am using rack in conjunction with a Tepui tent. Once I added the air deflector, I would say it's the perfect setup. The Yakima gives more clearance over the factory rack, so I was able to get my hands under it to secure the tent hardware. If you're thinking of upgrading your factory rack, I would not hesitate to use etrailer.com
roof racks showed up in great condition, and showed up as one package.... I should have ordered the J racks from here but I found them cheaper locally so Thule J racks compliment the whole setup and i am just about ready to hit the water :)
Customer service was extremely helpful in finding the exact replacement parts needed for my old car!
The installation of this rack system went very well, all of the instructions were easy to read and use. I have attached some pictures of our installation. The vehicle is a 1994 Honda Accord EX four door sedan
I've attachec a few pictures of the Yakima rack on my Audi Q7. It took a few attempts to find the right combination of attachments, but in the end, the pin attachments work best with the access points on the factory flush-mount rails. Great product!!!!!
excellent and very fast service
Solid and easy to instal
Great rack, go on fast, easy to install and work well on my VW TDI wagon. Care has to be given and follow the instructions for the install to what type of rails you have. Works great carrying the VW luggage carrier and plan on using it to carry kayaks as well. Just have not decided what kayak rack type to get yet.
These convertors will allow me to continue to use my hullavator system currently on round bars. The drop in feature of skyline towers makes the whole change out a snap. Certainly better than buying a whole new hullavator.
I ordered the Yakima roof rack, with the Hullyrollers for the back crossbar and the Mako saddles for the front crossbar to use with my kayak. It arrived just like they told me and I put them on my car the eveningit arrived. Got to finlly use the roof rack on June 22 to go out kayaking and it worked great. Only thing is I did not know about the air reflector piece for the front crossbar. Now I will be ordering it to help with the wind noise.
Products great. Service and delivery from you company was not acceptable. when I placed my order you missed your delivery date by five days. Not sure how this happened, but requested help was not available.
etrailer rocks! Great customer service and support. All pieces worked as promised and for my vehicle.
A bit disappointed that Yakima towers do not have a height adjustment so I can make both round crossbars level to keep my canoes from catching too much air on the highway. My vehicles roof flush rails are are curved vertically and change widths front to back. Had to Mickey Mouse the back crossbar to make it higher with PVC brick moulding.
Also the tower covers with the Yakima label don't clip on strongly enough so I had to add duct tape because I did not trust them to stay on.
