Any of you guys that have the rack do you keep it on at all times or do you only install it when you are going to use it? can you post pictures of your X1 with the rack? |
Not exactly what you asked for, but... I'm not fond of the appearance of the OEM bar and am waiting for Yakima to complete a Whisperbar for the X1. See
http://yakima.com/shop/rack-systems/...spbar-s41-rail. Very low profile - makes it unnecessary (IMO) to take them off when not in use. To encourage Yakima to make these for the X1, leave input here:
