Today we had a customer come into the store with a 2007 Mini Cooper S. he was looking for a couple bike racks so he could carry his bikes up to the local mountains to get some riding in. He decided to go the Thule 400xt rack, because it had a greater weight restriction then the Yakima Q- Tower rack, and being that he had to heavy down hill bikes.
Since the bikes that he was wanting to get up to the mountains were heavy downhill bikes, and he didn’t want to have to take the tires off to put the bikes on the racks, we recommended the Yakima High Rollers. The upgraded version of the Yakima King Cobra, the difference being the Quick release feature, and the look of the new wheel tray.
