What Canoe Saddles and Load Assist do You Recommend for Thule Crossbars on My 2022 Volvo V60?
Question:
Hello, I had a couple of questions about the Yakima 8004074 SweetRoll Kayak Saddles with Rollers product. Firstly, do these rollers work for Canoes, and secondly, will they fit on Thule roof rails for 2022 Volvo V60 Cross Country Many thanks in advance

Great questions. I went ahead and reached out to my tech at Yakima, and he said that he does not recommend using the Yakima SweetRoll # Y04074. This is because the SweetRoll was specially designed for kayaks and paddleboards and does not have the same support as a canoe carrier.
Based on your question, I am assuming you have Thule crossbars on your 2022 Volvo V60 Cross Country. Even though the SweetRoll technically fits with Thule crossbars, I recommend the Yakima KeelOver Rooftop Canoe Carrier with Tie-Downs # Y04069. The KeelOver fits perfectly with WingBar Evos, SquareBar Evos, Thule AeroBlades, and Thule WingBar Edge crossbars. The KeelOver requires a crossbar spread of 24 inches (if your canoe is less than 14 feet) or 30 inches (if your canoe is over 14 feet). I recommend confirming that you have enough space between your crossbars in order to accomodate the KeelOver with your canoe size.
