I think it's a yakima bike rack, but I'm not sure. Check with bigcase, it's his car.

yes its bigcase's car
yes its a yakima
yes if fits
yes it needs a short roofline adaptor ;)

on my 2 door cavalier i had 17" between the bars and carried my kayak or 2 bikes with no prob with no short roofline adapter and a thule rack. The bike carriers had the fork mount and full trays.

imo, the honda one looks/fits better than that, but, im more one for getting better quality/fit over saving a few bucks, if i cant afford it, im not gonna settle for something that wont please me

I have the yakima rack without the short roofline adapter.

A yakima setup is around $500 for the complete setup

[VividDreams]

well, like i said, since the Honda one was designed specificlly for our car, it looks better, meaning, it looks like its supposed to be there, i just dont like the look of the one in the links, sorry

[anna n her ep3]

does the yakima rack hold snowboards what about the honda? i havent seen one ep in sacramento, redding, or the bayarea with a roof rack. thanks yo guys

[dtexan]

The yakima racks will hold just about anything you want. Check out www.yakima.com and you can see everything they offer. I'm not sure if the honda rack holds snowboards. I'm not even sure where you can by the honda one.

I have no idea where you'd be able to get one over here though.

Yea I want a roof rack that'll hold a surfboard. The honda one looks a bit weak.

I have the THULE rack with the extension kit looks just like the Honda one fit is excellent but is a little pricy as it can be around 400 for the frame and fit kit I have the thule 1600 Box on it looks great I dont see why you could not fit a snowboard or a surfboard on top the box I have is just over 6 feet in length
Sorry dont have a pic or a digi cam. I believe Thule makes it for Honda though

I've got a set of Thule(Sweden) roof racks. It comes w/the base poles, visor, big mouth upright bike carrier, holds one bike(so don't have to take off the front wheel), and a set of snow board carriers(holds two). The only thing you will need is the fit kit, p/n# 2121 which you can get at any bike shop or ski shop(usually around $40 - $50). I'm selling the set for $290 shipped.

-let me know if anybody is interested.

go with the yakima. rack options are endless with it. they have mounts for everything you can think of. its a bit pricey but worth it. ive had a yakima for almost ten years. had one on my old truck. i custom fit it on my fiberglass tonneau cover. had one on my 96 accord coupe. ill always have one. if you have a small car and you live out of doors alot, you cant live without one.

honda racks are made by yakima.
