Yakima Roof Bike Rack Recommendation for a 2016 Subaru Outback Wagon

Question:

Hi I have a Subaru Outback 2016 with factory aero crossbars. I am try to figure out a work around to get my old Yakima Viper Bike rack and a Yakima Boa Bike rack to fit. Unfortunately they are both specd for round or square cross bars. Is there an adapter that I can buy? Thanks,

Expert Reply:

The older versions of the Yakima Viper and Boa Bike Rack cannot be adapted to fit elliptical or aerodynamic crossbars like what you have on your 2016 Subaru Outback.

The Yakima's ForkLift # Y02098 will fit the factory crossbars of your vehicle though.
