Recommended Bike, Cargo, and Canoe Carriers for a 2017 Chevy Equinox with Factory Roof Rack
Question:
For your 2017 Chevy Equinox I recommend using the Thule UpRide # TH599000 for your bikes because of how easy it is to use and you don't have to remove your front wheel to transport your bike. To carry your canoe I highly recommend the Lockrack Adjustable Watersport Carrier # 339-LRUNISETX for a few reasons. The first is that it can accommodate pretty much any boat style out there and the second reason is that this carrier has integrated locks that help grip your canoe and eliminate the need for any straps to secure it! Then if you are wanting to replace your SpaceCase I recommend taking a look at the Thule Force XT # TH6356B. I really like this box because of the Black AeroSkin that gives it a matte black and the new body style will compliment your Equinox very nicely. I'm not sure how long your crossbars are but I have attached a link to our selection of fairings that you can filter through. Just be sure that the one you select will fit inside the length of your crossbars! Also, be sure not to exceed the weight rating for the roof of your Equinox. Attached are some review videos for you to check out.
