WHAT LENGTH BAR LENGTH DO I NEED. WHAT ABOUT QUICK RELEASE ENDS?
Standard 8 foot V bar with bolt on Vs is the simplest. Vs can be removed in 5 minutes with wrench and socket, leaving only the low profile 1.5 x 3 inch flat black bar. While it is best to have the V bar centered on your crossbars, you can move it up to 1 foot forward of center to clear the opening truck/hatch on small SUVs and Hatchbacks. If the bar is too long, consider our Short Bar with Quick Release ends. 7 foot bar with Quick Release Vs allows removal of the Vs in seconds by use of a quick release pin, no tools necessary.Total length is 8.5 feet with ends in place. 5.5 foot Short Bar with Quick Release Vs is for shorter SUVs, hatchbacks, and shorter vehicles. With the Vs removed, the shorter 5.5 foot bar allows for the opening of the rear truck/hatch/lift gate. Total bar length is 7 foot overall with ends installed, plenty of length to mount a 21 foot boat.
WHICH VS DO I NEED? Standard Vs will work for all OC1s, OC2s, shells, racing kayaks/surfskis and sea kayaks. Intermediate size surf skis and kayaks work better with the wide Vs. Boats over 18 inches wide need the wide Vs. The item "Kayak Roof Rack Top Mount Carrier Standard 8 Foot V Bar BLK Anodized Made in USA" is in sale since Tuesday, November 19, 2019.
