What can i say, they're locks. They're easy to install and don't jam. They also come with two keys so you can keep one on you and put the other in a safe place for when you loose the one you had on you. Pricey yes but the feeling of security they provide is worth it. Also, if you have enough of them and buy the accessory lock housings, you can not only lock your rack to your car, but also your rack accessories to your rack to deter all but the most persistent thieves.
Although after a hefty price tag for rack and bars and fairing and what not, these can seem pretty superfluous they are definitely worth it. Super easy to install and then easy to use. I have my rack locked to my car and my bike locked to my rack when I use all of them so I can leave it all on the roof after a long ride.
These locks have done a great job for the past year at securing my rack to my car. The key still turns great despite the locks exposure to dusty desert and snowy mountain conditions. A small price to pay to keep your valuables locked to your rack and your rack to your roof.
Yakima racks are great and people know it. You need at least 2 cores (preferably 4) for the racks themselves but you'll need some cores for the accessories you put on the bars.
Nifty little locks. I like having only one key and the ease of installing these locks. They're pricey, but worth it to protect your stuff!
Very easy to install - Make sure you get enough cores for all your attachments. One key for all your locks is a must.
These are easy to use. But who knows really how secure they are. They don't seem like they would do anything.
These are a must if you want peace of mind.
Ridiculously expensive but necessary - very easy to install - still much more economical than thule.
