I had a Yakima rack for a couple years and I can't say I was overly impressed.
That this has corrosion and issues after your testing period seems like a sad
joke and makes me quite happy with my 3 year old 1UP USA rack. Not sure what
shipping costs are like to get them into Canada, but I can't imagine ever
purchasing a different rack. A little bit of lubricant every 6 months and it
works as smoothly as the day I bought it. With no plastic to fade and crack it
still looks shiny and new. With easily replaceable bits and pieces I didn't
worry when someone backed into it and bent a bar. One call to 1UP and a new
piece was at my door within the week, no charge.
