Best Roof Bike Rack that Fits a 2015 Subaru Outback Factory Roof Rack
Question:
Is there an adapter kit that will enable me to fit my echelon 518s to a 2015 Subaru Outback roof rack crossbars. They very closely resemble aero bars, but I havent taken any measurements yet.

Expert Reply:
In order to use the Echelon bike rack 518 you would have to have aftermarket crossbars installed on your 2015 Subaru Outback. It would be easier and less expensive to go with a new compatible bike rack.
For a similar bike rack that is listed as a fit on the factory crossbars on a 2015 Subaru Outback you can use the Yakima ForkLift, # Y02098. I have included a link to a video review of this rack for you.
