    The deadsimple form factor in my opinion is not as attractive to potential thieves


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The fit isnt perfect because the contact surface is at an angle and doesnt fully contact the bottom of the kayak


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The back bars started twisting and i am a bit concerned they might let loose at some point
