Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

Cons

The rear crossbar is too far back on the car for the roller to be of any use. If it can't be done at all, the advertised side-to-side adjustability of the roller is lost. The small allen wrench tool that is given is absolutely terrible.

Shipping

Competitiveness

I have a honda pilot with a 75lb kayak and the showboat allows me to load and unload with ease without damaging my car.

For a subaru outback, coupled with the yakima sweet roller and a 55lbs sot fishing kayak, nothing could be easier, safer and and simple.
