Yakima Big PowderHound 6-Ski Rooftop Carrier Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The Big Powder Hound is a great rack for hauling multiple pairs of ski's or snowboards. Mounting was extremely quick & easy as well as being secure. Construction seems robust enough to last for a long time. I did add the sks locks & they have worked great as well. However I did have 1 lock freeze up on a particularly nasty day, might want to keep a can of spray on ice melter handy to deal with that possible issue.

Yakima FatCat 4-Ski Rooftop Carrier Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I owned the Yakima Big Powderhound racks before these and they created a bit of wind noise at speed. The Fatcat 6 has the same capacity and no noise!! They also look pretty cool on my vehicle.

Product Description:
The current trend in skis is just like the necktie trend in the '70s--they just keep getting fatter. That's why Yakima released the four-ski FatCat rooftop carrier, which is wide enough for four pairs of fat skis or two snowboards. The FatCat boasts a low-profile mounting system that works on round bars, square bars, and most factory roof racks right out of the box. The carrier's massive jaws and unique hinge system, meanwhile, hold your skis and boards comfortably and securely.
Thanks to the FatCat's aerodynamic shape, you won't suffer from poor gas mileage on the highway, nor will the carrier make annoying whistling sounds as you drive. Other details include an integrated SkiLift feature that easily clears tall bindings, rubber edging that's gentle on your gear, and SKS compatibility. The FatCat carries a one-year warranty.

Yakima Q Clip Set Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have had the Q-tower system for a number of years, through three different vehicles.All in all a great rack system, except for two items:The cost of the little parts that you need to convert from one vehicle to the other are stratospheric! I really don't mind Yakima making their money on the big ticket items such as towers, boxes, etc. but the little adapter items should be priced more fairly.It seems to me that once you are locked into a Yakima system they fully intend to hose you on the little things.Too bad.Further, the Yakima website is a mess to try and find the specific little items and accessories that they intend on hosing you with!

Yakima 2009 CopperHead Fork Mount Rooftop Bike Rack Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)We LOVE this roof top rack. Bike was wobbly at first but my husband realized he didn't have the rack tightened down as much as it should be to the truck. Problem solved.We have 5 kids so there is 7 bikes in all. The bike is very sturdy up there. I am looking to buy another one now.(and a hitch rack) We have a yukon so as a women I don't think I cld put my bike up there but my husband is 6'5". So the height of your vehicle and your height depends if this really works for YOU. You also need an easy release front wheel. Otherwise this would be a pain to have tools w you to remove your wheel. I would have 4 of them if that wouldn't be to pricey but for my budget it would be. we did have to buy a lock separately for it, you don't have to have this but if you plan on leaving your bikes unattended its a good idea.

Product Description:
Yakima's most affordable bike rack, the CopperHead fork-mount rooftop bike rack is strong, attractive, and functional. The CopperHead is equipped with a sturdy fork that attaches quickly and easily to your bike's SKS-lockable skewer. As a result, you can install just about any type of bike on the rack, including mountain bikes, road bikes, and hybrids. (The CopperHead accommodates quick-release wheel skewers, so owners of bikes with nutted front wheels, triple clamp forks, or forks with dropout spacing should consider other mounts instead.) The aerodynamic fork block, meanwhile, adds stability--a must when driving at high speeds or on gravel roads. And despite the low price tag, the CopperHead fits all round and square rooftop crossbars, along with all common bike wheel and tire sizes. Easy to install, the CopperHead comes with Yakima's lifetime warranty.
