Recommended Kayak Carrier for Use on Rola APE Series Roof Rack # 59715
Question:
Hi, Im looking for a Kayak carrier to work with Rola APE Series P/N 59715. I was wondering if you had any input on what style carrier would mount best to this rack system. I want to be able to transport 2 kayaks. I was originally thinking about getting 2 sets of J-hooks not sure what brand. Thank you.

The Rola APE Series Roof Rack 59715 that fits your 2012 Hyundai Accent features elliptical-shape crossbars that help reduce wind noise. We offer a range of kayak carriers that fit this type of crossbar and all can be seen using the link provided.
You could use two separate J-style carriers such as the Swagman Contour # S65148 but you may prefer to use a single 2-kayak carrier like the Thule Stacker 2 Kayak Carrier # TH830 that will help save you some room on the Accent's roof so you can carry more gear.
You'll want to check your owner's manual to confirm the car's roof weight carrying capacity to ensure you do not overload it. Keep in mind that the weight of the roof rack, the kayak carriers and the kayaks themselves all together must remain within the vehicle's weight rating.
