Comparing Lockrack Adjustable XL Watersport Carrier to Older Standard Non-XL Model
Updated 02/02/2023 | Published 01/27/2023 >
Question:
I have the Universal LockRacks , thought about upgrading to the XL Lockracks but dont see the point really as the measurements are the same even though the XL base can expand which again are the same measurements regardless , so where is the difference in the older model verses the new XL model.

Expert Reply:
The only difference between the Lockrack Adjustable XL Watersport Carrier part # LR54FR and older standard model is the length of the arms, these were designed for specific kayas like the Hobie to offer more security because of their height. If you have a taller kayak then the XL will be a good upgrade for you otherwise it would not provide any new features.
