When you’re hauling kayaks, canoes, or a loaded cargo box, strength gives you peace of mind. The Yakima BaseLine Roof Rack uses steel CoreBars that can handle up to 220 lbs while keeping a low aerodynamic profile. Each bar measures 60" long x 2-3/4" wide x 1" tall, giving you sturdy support for all kinds of weekend gear.
Long highway drives can turn noisy with the wrong crossbars. These CoreBars use an aero-style shape that helps reduce drag and the whistling that comes with square or round tubes. That smoother airflow means less fatigue and a more comfortable ride on road trips and camping runs.
Rain, sun, and road grime can wear down metal fast. The black vinyl coating on these bars shields the steel underneath from corrosion so they stay in good shape for the long haul. It also gives the rack a clean finish that blends in nicely with most vehicles.
When you park at a trailhead or campsite, security matters. The BaseLine system is compatible with Yakima Same Key System (SKS) lock cores, sold separately, so you can lock down the rack and rest easy knowing your setup stays put.
Not every vehicle has factory rails, and that’s where this setup shines. The complete system includes 2 CoreBars, 4 BaseLine towers, and a custom fit kit designed for a solid grip on a naked roof. Everything works together for a stable mount that looks built-in rather than bolted on.

I still love my Yakima Roof Rack. Have not had any negative issues. Am getting ready to put it on my Subaru Impreza for the SpringSummer season. Would definitely purchase it again and recommend it to my kayaking friends.
Do you have a question about this Roof Rack?

Functionally solid after one year of use. I couldn’t be happier with the product.
