Hi, everyone, it's Evangeline here at etrailer. And today, we'll be taking a look at our Inno roof rack system with the Inno Through Feet, our 57-inch long crossbars, and our Custom Fit Kit for your 2020 Ford Edge. So you have your Ford Edge and you're ready for adventure, or you just wanna carry some extra luggage on top of your vehicle. What if you wanna carry a bike rack or a roof basket or a roof box, or even a kayak What you first need is a roof rack system. So this is the Inno roof rack system with a little bit more overhang and a little bit more height compared to some of your other roof racks. So we're gonna go through the different specs, the different measurements, just to see if this is the right fit for your vehicle, as well as whatever you want to carry with it.
Now, your Ford Edge also has a panoramic glass roof so a big question is, can I still have my crossbars and open the roof So as we open our roof, you can see how as it slides up, we still have plenty of clearance below our crossbars and above our roof. So the clearance with the roof up is gonna be about one and two inches. So if you do have items at clamp around your crossbars, you have about two inches of space for that. So this roof rack is pretty good with giving you roof clearance compared to some other crossbars or roof rack systems. So we'll take some measurements to see exactly how much.
Measuring with the glass roof closed from the top of the roof to the bottom of the crossbar, we hit about 3 1/2 inches of height. So if you have accessories that have clamps that go around the crossbars, that's how much clearance you have for those. Also, if you have cargo and say, ski and snowboards that have larger bindings, that's where a higher roof clearance like that will be handy. Your actual roof height is going to be about five inches tall, or five inches added to the top of your vehicle. Now remember, since you roof does curve, those, the roof clearance and the roof height, will be a little bit different depending on where you measure.
But what's really good to see is even with your shark's fin in the back, whatever you have on top will not interfere with it, but will stay above it. Now the downside to having a naked roof rack is that you don't really get adjustability when it comes to crossbar spread. So measuring from the center of our front crossbar to the center of our rear crossbar, we have about 28 inches of crossbar spread. So for your different accessories, they have fixed mounting clamps. They have fixed areas for where they mount to your crossbars.
That's where the crossbar spread will come in handy to know if it's gonna match your accessories and your crossbars. The crossbar is made of aluminum, but also has this really sleek-looking black powder-coat finish. So that aluminum construction keeps it lightweight but also gives it a really good weight capacity of 165 pounds. One thing to note with that whenever you talk about weight capacity, is you still have to remember your actual roof weight capacity. So add up your roof rack system plus the weight of your accessory, whether it's a box or a basket, plus the weight of your cargo. Total, that makes sure it does not exceed your roof weight capacity. My favorite thing about the new crossbars is how they usually have T-tracks. So the Inno crossbars also has this T-slot in there. And I do like how it's made where you can just push down that rubber strip and then mount your T-track accessory. Much better than, lets say, Rhino Rack, where you have to cut it to size, or Thule where it splits apart every now and then. This is super easy to use. If you have the original roof racks, those we're usually square or round, and they we're really noisy as you drive down the highway. This is the Inno Aero roof rack, or Aero bars, and it's a lot more aerodynamic. Notice how it is shaped. This is so that it can cut down on wind drag and wind noise as you drive down, especially without anything on top of it. Now these are the 57-inch long crossbars, so they give you a little bit more overhang compared to the shorter version. So measuring from the end of the tower to right before the end cap, you have about 2 1/4 inches of actual overhang, which is a little bit more than your 54-inch long crossbars. If you do have more accessories and you want a easier way to reach up onto your vehicle, that's where overhang like this comes in handy. What's holding your crossbar up are these through feet towers. So they have locking cores and you get two keys to access the whole system. So as you can see, this just pops off and allows you to mount and dismount your roof rack system. Now if you do have T-track accessories, you won't need to take these towers off, as you can just take off the nice, shiny end caps. Now let's talk about the fit kit. So that includes the pads that go underneath the towers and the hooks. I highly recommend checking out etrailer.com just to make sure you get the right fit for your specific vehicle. Because if you notice they are, they have these grooves and they conform to the grooves of your own vehicle. So you wanna make sure that you install them properly to take care of your vehicle. Now I do have an install process guide where I go through everything just to show you how to tighten everything down, so let's take a look at that. So the install process can be a little tricky just because this is a naked roof rack, and we have different fit kits with different numbers. But that's what this video is for. I already installed the rear crossbar so that we can install the front crossbar together. We have different hooks, different foot pads, and I'll just guide you through the process of getting your fit kit, your towers, and your crossbars assembled on your Ford Edge. So first, I'm gonna set up the tower with a proper fit kit. So for the front crossbar, we are using the foot pads that have numbers four, two, and five. And then we are gonna place it on the towers like this, with the groove portion facing away from the front. So we just pop that in. Next, we are going to set up our crossbar. So for our crossbar, we have this silver plate. This needs to go inside the tray on the crossbar. Once that's in place, you can bring it up from the bottom. You just slide this through, all the way to the center. Push in this button and continue sliding it until it stops. Then you get your tower. Notice how we have these notches, or these tabs in our tower, as well as this bolt. This is gonna fit into our silver plate, so just place it on top. On the backside of the tower, you have a lever. So you're gonna want to pull that lever so that you can slide the tower through. Now that our towers are attached, we can now put this on our roof. So make sure that the wide portion of your Aero crossbar is facing the front of your roof, and then let's just get it lined up. Since I did not put the hooks on, I can just very gently place this onto my roof and then put the hooks on. So then we have specific measurements on where our towers are going to be placed. For the front tower, we need it to be 8 3/4 inches from your door to the center of the crossbar, or the center of the tower. So just line that up, and now we can put our hook on. Don't forget that you have to tighten down your tower as well to your crossbar that's underneath, just in case you haven't already. But with everything aligned and with this where you want it to be, you just have your hook and your bolt already connected and just fit that into your tower and then hand tighten it down. With both sides clamped on, you then use your torque tool to continue tightening it down. So this is a torque tool, so it's going to click. Do it twice like a gas cap, and that's how you know you have enough tension. When you have all four of your towers tightened down, you can then finally put your end caps onto your crossbars. We'll just pop it in there. And then your doors for your towers. Those go in from the bottom and then flip up towards the top, then you lock it in order to secure it. And with everything locked down and in place, you are done with the install. So my personal thoughts about this roof rack system is if you are going to get the Inno Through Feet, I definitely recommend this configuration with the longer crossbars. You can also get the slightly shorter crossbars with 54-inch long bars. Those only give you about an inch of overhang though, so not as impressive as these. Now if you're looking for something that's a little bit more low profile, more streamlined, you may wanna check out the Inno Flush Feet system. It does sit a little closer to your vehicle though. Something worth considering if you have accessories that clamp around the bars. Another thing you might wanna check out is the Rhino Rack Roof Rack system, which actually is kinda easier to install, but then you get your pros and cons with those too. Definitely check out the different kits right here at etrailer just to see what's the right fit for you and your adventures. But for this one, it gives you great clearance, great overhang, and pretty good weight capacity..

These custom-fit clamps and pads let you mount 4 Inno XS200, XS250, or INSU-K5 feet to your vehicle's naked roof to help create an aftermarket roof rack system. Clamps mount to feet with bolts. Kit includes 4 clamps and 4 pads.We recently purchased 2 kayaks & Thule roof racks from our local outdoor store.
After waiting 2 weeks for our roof racks and J bars to come in we found that the Thule racks did not fit our 2017 Lincoln MKX and they didn't make any racks that would. The vehicle does not have roof racks and has a moon roof.
After a couple of days searching the internet we discovered etrailer.com. We found the Inno roof racks, but still was not sure they would work. We spoke to a repesenative and he assured us that the racks we chose would fit and the Thule J bars we did return would also work. As you can see by the photos 2 days later we were happy Kayakers.
By far the best service I have received in a very long time. I recieved my inno flush feet areo crossbars, sooner than expected and the assembly was just as specified. I especially liked having the video with the tutorial.
I like the look of the low profile and the quality is outstanding. I have used this for my kayak and the low profile helps with the loading and unloading.
I would highly recommend this product and Company.
Needed to purchase some longer bars for my system. This product fit the bill, was more affordable than other options, and the team at e trailer will always be there to help should I ever need assistance. This was for my wife's Ford Edge c ok company car. Now she has a Traverse so we will be purchasing new feet, but can still use the bars. I'd reccomend them for any need you have in the categories they offer. I'm a 4 time customer and will use them for all my rack related purchases.
They were so helpful. Geoffrey got me the parts the next day and the roof rack works great. Easy assembly. Just needed a little muscle power to click the final pieces together. Everything else was an easy bolt.
My wife and I bought a 2019 Tyson with a bare roof and wanted a rack system that would be safe affordable and easy to install and not having to Buy and installed side rails. The Inno system was perfect. . It is solid material with a solid build. The directions were a bit confusing but after some time and with the etrailer how to videos it really made the difference. Ordering was simple and fast. Madison was great to work with she was knowledgeable and helpful. The delivery was fast and exactly on time. I was going to go with another company and another rack system…. I’m glad I didn’t. I saved money and got a great product from a great company. Thanks etrailer, Inno and thanks Madison! And mostly for making my wife happy bc know we can get to kayaking!!!
etrailer was great to order from! Going to the website makes it easy to see what roof rack will fit your vehicle. Ordering process was a breeze and the fulfillment updates were great. Ordered on the 13th and received it on the 16th so the FREE shipping was super fast. New installs of anything can always be challenging but once I read the the instructions it all went pretty smooth. Installing this Inno Roof Rack onto our 2021 Tacoma TRD Sport was pretty simple and took less than an hours from start to finish. Now we are ready to load up out Thule cargo carrier when we hit the road.
I am writing this review in the context of an owner of an old Yakima roof rack system from many vehicles before the 2021 Hyundai Tucson on which I just mounted four INNO separate sets of components to carry two bikes on top of the Tucson. Note that you need at least three sets of components to have a "base rack" system, including the hooks, in this case the INNO INK680, the INNO INSUT Feet and the INNO INB137 set of crossbars. The feet are rubber coated metal so that they will not mar the paint where they clamp to the edge of the roof just above the doors. The rubber pads are also substantial to provide a slip-proof and paint protecting bottom for the INSUT feet. Read through all the directions for all the components before beginning installation, perhaps even "rehearsing" all the steps before actual installation with tightening everything. The instructions could be clearer, but with practice walking through all the steps they make sense. Once installed, I could grab any part of the completed system and pull upwards, sideways, forwards, and backwards without any play or slack in any of the components. In fact, it was easy to rock the whole car side to side without budging the INNO components at all. Compared to the old Yakima system, the INNO is just as sturdy and substantial if not more so. Just to replace the Yakima "feet" to use my old round Yakima crossbars would have cost more than the total of the three INNO components needed to get the base system. Even better, the INNO system came with included locks to lock the system to the vehicle. Many years ago, the Yakima four lock cylinders were $[XX] extra - probably much more now. So, I think the INNO is at least as sturdy and capable for much less money.
Feels premium and was pretty straight forward to install. I think it looks really good on the 2019 Honda Accord Sport. I plan to pair it with the Inno Wedge 660 cargo box. So far, it seems really well made and has a rubberized texture throughout. I installed it by myself in about 30 minutes without the instructions. It also shipped in only 2 days.
I use this rack in conjunction with some long square cross bars from Thule that I have had for a few years. They allow me to carry two lightweight Hornbecks atop a 2019 cx5 that has no rails. At this point, I have only used a couple of times and the configuration appeared to work fine, but the problem is fitting them properly, having to measure precisely. It is probably just me, but I don’t have 100% confidence that the rack and canoes will remain on the roof with the little purchase the rack provides. Wish there was a way to improve the purchase that the lamps achieve.
Waste of money. Most annoying couple hours spent in a long time. Extremely disappointed. Does not fit well. Not exactly a cheap option, but a cheap option in terms of fit and engineering. The instructions online and in the kits do not agree. Plus there are no universal set of instructions--they are all individual items for the fit kit, the bars, etc. And the engineering design is garbage--requires precise measurement yet the design is such that exact measurement is impossible due to the design.
Additionally, the parts are low quality Either low density plastic or easily stripped bolts. Even when as precise as possible, I wouldn't trust it with my kayak. What a mistake. Do yourself a favor and get a Yakima trailer or similar. It isn't that much more money in the scheme of things and then it isn't tied to your car. Can add a hitch to most vehicles anyway.
These Inno racks are very high quality, and the installation is straightforward. They look good, too.
I've been a happy etrailer customer for years. Sales staff helped me pick out the right roof rack setup for my new 2023 Escape that worked with my low-profile rails. 3 separate boxes of pieces but they all came together perfectly. Very happy with my purchase and etrailer customer support! Rack is solid, low wind noise and will work with the accessories I need, kayak carrier and cargo basket.
We bought this along with the INTR - Inno Feet for Square Crossbars. We used this to mount Thule crossbars and a Thule Adventurer cargo box on a 2001 Subaru Forester. Everything fit perfectly. The Inno mounts were completely compatible with the Thule crossbars. The fast and accurate shipping helped avert a crisis before a cross country trip.
Easy, stable and quick to mount. The only issue is that the rubber foot pads, which are specific to each auto model, would fall off when the rack isn’t mounted on the car. Solved with black electrical tape around the edges of the rubber.
Be a fantastic help if you labeled what clamps went on the front of back.
THEY DID IT AGAIN! I was looking for roof racks for our 2012 Honda Crosstour. OEM was not available. I called Etrailer and spoke to Anna and she listened to make sure we got just what we needed.Today I'm going to install and hope they fit our needs. I'm really impressed with Etrailer and there customer service! They have taken care of me many times with several different vehicles! Thank you
