Kayak Carrier Recommendation for Lower Crossbars on Yakima EasyRider Double Decker Trailer
Question:
Hi, which Thule and Yakima kayak are able to attach to the lower tier of the Easyrider trailer?
asked by: Anthony J
Expert Reply:
The lower crossbars on the Yakima EasyRider Double Decker Trailer # Y08129 are larger than most other crossbars and have a 2" diameter.
While most people just mount pads on them and secure the kayaks with tie-downs that way I recommend using the Yakima BigCatch Kayak Carrier w/ Tie-Downs # Y04091 because we know these will fit the larger crossbars and they are a saddle style type carrier so they have a lower profile for better clearance on the bottom of the trailer.
Attached are some videos for you to check out.
