Why this product

Why the TMS J-Bar Kayak Rack (1 pair)?

The single TMS J-bar is the cheapest way to J-cradle a kayak on your roof. 75 lb capacity, padded arms, 8 lbs. Build quality is basic and the padding wears faster than premium brands. Good enough for a first kayak rack or occasional use — when you outgrow it, you will know what features you actually want in the upgrade.
