Can I Fit 2 Malone Downloaders on Rhino Rack Roof Rack on 2020 Honda CR-V
Question:
Will the Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Bar at 54” be long enough to carry 2 kayaks using the Malone Downloader Kayak Carrier with TelosXL Load Assist and Malone Downloader J style on my 2020 Honda CR-V? The kayaks are 66 lbs. 24” wide and 72 lbs. 36” wide.

The great thing about J-style carriers like the ones included with the Malone Downloader with Telus XL # MPG114MD-351XL (with load assist) or # MPG114MD (without load assist) is that they don't take up a ton of space (17" wide to be exact), so they're the best solution to carry 2 kayaks on a vehicle.
In regards to the roof rack kit, the Rhino Rack Roof Rack kit for 2020 Honda CR-V with Naked Roof that uses parts # RRVA137B-2, # RRRLKVA (towers), # DK284 (fit kit) will provide you with enough space to carry your boats since they'll be carried on their sides in the Downloader. I really love Rhino Rack roof racks because you're getting a system that's just as high quality as the big names, but at a more pocketbook friendly price.
