These are a game changer hauling my canoe. I looked at a bunch of different options, including Thule and Yakima, before ordering these. They were simple to install on my Rhino Rack Aero bars. I use the Malone foam blocks that mount to the rack and to the gunwale so I can still open the rear hatch on my car. Even so, once it's cranked into place, there is no movement. Loading the canoe takes about 5 minutes now even with two safety straps in the front. Better yet, when we're traveling, we feel safer leaving the canoe mounted to the car unattended. It's an ultralite Wenonah 17' that only weights 46 lbs and would be incredibly easy to steal.

Have always used INNO products. Went from the clamp model to the flush mounts. Perfect fit, smooth setup and holds a kayak, a handful of longboards, a bunch of short boards, etc. Also, I use the racks to hold snowboards in the winter.

I have used this carrier for almost 2 decades and I believe it is the best out there. Easy and sturdy equipment that allows you to quickly secure your prized boards and not worry about the straps loosening up.

Will not fit the rooftop Intrepid Camp Gear Cross Mount 250 rail system. The T-Slot square is larger than the T-Slot.

Generally does a good job and is convenient. However I needed to buy different length bolts to install for my BMW. I am wary of relying on this for trips on the highway. The spooling mechanism of the wire has a potential to loosen. I went on the highway thinking it was secure and the board started bouncing around. Your board is secured by a mechanism relying on a thin wire wrapped around a piece of rubber. Any failure and your board goes flying. I add a strap on the highway. This company has an odd way of marketing their products. The 446 model is described completely differently even though the only real difference is the way it is secured to the car and the addition of some pads. The 446 universal mount is big and clunky and when attached to the roof bar doesn't consider the aerodynamic slope of the bar found on newer cars. So the whole thing sits crooked. The 446 and 445 are otherwise identical, although reading the descriptions you'd think the 445 is for larger items like paddle boards and the 446 is for surfboards. They're the same except for the mount. BIZARRE!

Been delaying this purchase for a really long time due to the price. I’ve been using lockable straps, but those were the most secure as overtime they came loose and no longer bit the strap. I regularly carry 2-3 boards and this thing makes it super easy to pull off any board from the rack. Being able to separate the straps and managing the excess with the ratchet system makes things really fast. Also no more worries about your straps not biting down hard enough and slowly backing loose while driving. So far so good with car washing also. Ratchet them flat and your good to go.

Setup on a 2015 Ford Explorer, easy install! I like how simple this is for securing a 10ft. kayak. Make sure you center your credit in the roof rack, the cabling needs to be evened out to not get caught on any corners.

The tube pad was missing, but the attachments are not for a standard cross bar. It won't fit any of our 4 SUV's!

Si vous avez un compact ou une berline comme voiture il se pourrait que vos barres de toits ne soient pas assé large pour installer cet adaptateur si vous avez un kayak de pêche. P.S. je l'ai retourné sans problème chez Amazon.
