Comments about Yakima 58 Inch Round Bars - Pair:

I've had a number of sets of Yakima bars over the past couple of decades.

And the RUSTING, and decomposition of the crossbars, is the number one problem I have with this rack system.

Eventhough, the steel tubing that the bars are made of is galvanized tubing, they still RUST... When they use a chop saw to cut the lengths of tubing the cut ends are exposed and this vulnerable area of the tube end rusts, and destroys the bar.

And the cheap plastic end caps actually contribute to the rusting problems. The least Yakima could do is use integrated bar ends.

I wish they would make the anodized aluminum bars again. But it's been about 20 years since I've seen them around.

Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
