I have owned both Yakima and Thule racks. I am more happy with the Thule. They seem to be slightly better constructed/engineered. The biggest issue for me was the circular construction of the Yak cross bars: no matter how much I tightened them, the rollers would lean forward or aft on the top of the cross bar....making for a sore arm and foul language. This leaning occurred whether I was loading my single or my 21 foot tandem. *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).
