Question:

I have a 2004 Chevy Avalanche. It has no roof rack or rails. I am not sure if that was even an option? What roof rack Yakima or others do you recommend. I would like to carry canoes and bikes on occasion but they can go in the bed. Also do you have a bed rack for the Avalanche or bed top rack? For Bikes. Thanks

Helpful Expert Reply:

You have many options in roof racks for your 2004 Chevy Avalanche with bare roof including systems from Yakima, Thule and Rhino-Rack. You have a choice of basic round and square crossbar racks and also quieter aerodynamic types such as the Thule AeroBlade and Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars. All can be seen using the link provided.

Among the more cost-effective options is the Rhino-Rack 2500 system with aero bars consisting of parts # RRVA137B-2, # RRRLKVA, and # DK227.

I have included a link to our page for all canoe carriers that will fit the Yakima rack's round crossbars.

We offer a range of truck-bed bike carriers, including bolt-on and clamp-on types, and both single- and multiple-bike designs. The link provided will let you see all bike rack options for your truck. For the most cost-effective option you might consider the Hollywood Racks Bolt-On # HRT970 for single bikes, or the Topline clamp-on 4-bike carrier # UG2500-4.
