Hey there Erica, thanks for the question and we can get you set up to carry a couple kayaks and your mountain bike with your Yakima CoreBar crossbars. Let's start with the kayak carrier, and one that I really like due to its combo of quality and price (which = value) is from Rhino-Rack:
- Rhino-Rack Kayak Carrier # S512-S512X
This is a 2-kayak carrier that will easily clamp onto your crossbars, is very sturdy with its 165 lb weight capacity, and even comes with tie-downs so you don't have to make any added purchases. This is just a very solid, straightforward kayak carrier that'll get the job done for you.
I also like Rhino-Rack for the roof-mounted bike carrier, with the part being the Rhino-Rack MountainTrail Rooftop Bike Carrier # RBC035.
The # RBC035 is a fork-mounted rack that has a locking, 9-mm quick release skewer that's easy to use, and can handle bikes up to 35 lbs with tires up to 3 inches wide so your mountain bike is going to fit superbly. The addition of these racks is going to be the best way to secure all your gear on your Ford Fiesta.
