Kayak Carrier Recommendation for Thule Xsporter Pro Ladder Rack  

Published 06/12/2020

Question:

I am not sure this works. The two kayaks at 34" look to be too wide for this setup. Please let me know of alternatives.

The load bars of your Thule Xsporter Pro are thicker than most crossbars which means that kayak carriers that normally wrap around the bars won't fit but the carriers that attach to the top channels of crossbars/load bars like the Lockrack Watersport Carrier # 339LR65LASET will work. This carrier is really easy to load and also is very secure in how it attaches to the kayaks so it would be a really great option. Check out the review video I attached for more info as well.

The load bars of our Thule Xsporter part # TH500XTB are 72 inches long and since the carriers can easily hang the kayak slightly off the side of the bars if needed the LockRack would fit well still. For an alternative we have the Rhino Rack # RR580 which also fits in the top channels of the rack.
