I paided over 500.00 for mine, one place to get yakima is at rei.com
damn ... thats hella expensive for a yakima ... i remember i was quoted for like 350 at sport chalet and that included the locks, wind reflector and etc ... there was a sale at sport chalet for yakima racks last year during winter, and it was like 275ish (i think), that includes all locks and snowboard bindings ... i'm hoping that they are going to have that sale again this year
just ordered my rack last night it was 425 :mconfused:
here is a old pic of my rice bucket

damn that is exactly what I want, how much was it?
craigslist; $250 for all. Got all 4 Qtowers, 48" Crossbars, Fairing and 2 High Roller Bike Racks(these alone are $199 a piece) all with Lock Cores. The only extra I had to buy were the Q6 and Q116 Clips that are EP3 Specific ($35each, $70 for the set.Only thing I paid Retail price)
I priced it on the Yakima site and it all came to $967, So piecing it together saves Monie$ for other parts/equipment. Takes longer but well worth it IMO. Just rattle can the plastic pieces flat black and its all new....
With or Without the Stretch Kit the recommended load is 100lbs. So I decided not to run it since Downhill bikes are under 50lbs(mine is just under 40lbs.). But if you have a boat or something long you should consider it.
If you got the patience you can piece it together. I got a deal from a med student that was selling his car.
wow wish I can find a deal a like that
Great deal!
This thread rules. I have a yakima set-up with the stretch kit come winter time I'm going to throw the bitch up. Can't wait.
Here is my bike rack!
