Great roof bike rack...but I returned it...
Did a lot of research comparing roof racks, Yakima vs Thule models, and settled on the HighRoad mount. It was pretty easy to install and when I put my road bike up into it and tightened down the front holder, it was uber secure. No qualms about how it would hold up on the road.One thing I should have factored in was that I was hoping this would be a rack I could easily take off (as I use my car for work purposes and did not want to leave as rack like this attached all the time) without too much trouble. The rack attached to my OEM aero roof rails in about 5 minutes but I was not too keen on having to readjust and remount everytime I wanted to head somewhere for a ride. Additionally I am 6'3'' and had to use a stepstool to get up tall enough to mount the rack and secure my 60cm bike.The rack is well made and definitely solid, just after discussing it with my wife I returned it for a hitch mount rack (so we both can load and unload our bike). I opted for a Curt 1 1/4 inch hitch that fits my 2017 Forester and went with the Sagman Chinook rack.My advice...consider your hitch options if you are going with a roof mount. I thought the roof mount was going to be cheaper (I bought 2 of the HighRoads) but it turned out once I discovered non-Yakima or Thule brands and how well they are rated, the cost was considerably cheaper with a hitch mount. Going to DIY the hitch installation to the car and no longer worry about trying to get bikes up on the roof.Best to you!

I wasn't sure if I wanted a roof rack or not. I have a fairly heavy mountain bike and was going to have to load it on top of an SUV so it's a pretty high lift. The rack was pretty easy to install. It requires a step stool to get my bike high enough to load it but it is fairly easy to load once I have it lifted. I love that the front tire just fits inside the rack and you don't have to try to attach something to the frame as many of the others do. It is easy to tighten once loaded and it seems very secure. You have to be very conscious of how high the bike is after loading so you don't hit anything (I hit some tree branches when parking the first time I used it). You can find cheaper roof racks, but this one seems well build and about as easy to load as it can be.

Brief outing to do a local ride - no worries. Long road trip - perhaps not your best option. The product works great, super easy and has an elegant design. I'm able to readily switch between vehicles (anything with a roof rack) and don't even notice it when not in use. I wanted a full bike option because there is no room inside my car (or SUV) for a tire, passenger, gear and a dog. Plus, tires get muddy and those 29ers are no joke when it comes to taking up space. When taking your bike on the Interstate, that is where things get a little twisty. There is going to be a lot of torque on your front tire and crosswinds make you feel like you are sailing a Sunfish on the lake in a storm. Speaking of torque, my road bike has radial spokes in the front and I do worry about them getting overworked and out of true.

Love this rack so much I got a second! Kids getting too big to hang all the bikes off the back so had to get a second to lighten the load on the back of the car. Works great easy to load and secure bike!
Reviewed in the United States on July 30, 2019
I bought this car topper rack because I have a Yakima round bar system and many attachments and because I have a pickup truck already and didn't want to bother adding a receiver hitch to y Toyota Rav 4. If I had to do it over I would pony up for the receiver hitch and get a two or three place rear mounted hitch. The new receiver mounted back racks work way better I think.

That said this is a typically well designed and solidly built Yakima product Once you get the bike in the rack it's very solid and also comes with a medium security locking cable (though not all the necessary locking cores which you have to - somewhat annoyingly given the price of this thing - buy separately).

Now for the bad part. with a medium heavy alloy (not carbon) 29" frame mountain bike, this think is a Bi@#h to load even on a modest sized SUV like my 2018 Rav 4. In fact I wrenched my back pretty good one time getting my bike down. For the record I am 5'-9", 172 pounds and consider myself to have pretty decent upper body strength. If you are a 5' 4" 110 pound woman with the same car and weight of bike you'd better either be a body builder or carry a small, sturdy step ladder. I should do the same because I need to open the door and step on the floor board to load this thing, which is a process that can hurt me as I've found out. Body size is probably way more important than strength, though both are necessary. Partly this is due to the fact that the main securing point is for the front wheel which is not secure or rigid until you cinch it down. The back wheel rests on a narrow rail and is not held in place at all until you tighten the holding strap. Once you unstrap and loosen the bike it's a long way to the ground from an akward position.

Unless you're taller than I am and/or have a shorter car, I would seriously consider a rear mounted rack. A final consideration: As with any roof mount, consider your overhead clearance vigilantly every time you transport your bike. Don't ask me how I know this...

Have had this product for 6+ months and it has met every expectation. I can easily load/unload two bikes onto my car's roof without assistance in less than 5 minutes. Once the bike is placed into position, the wheel bar secures the bike while you can reposition yourself (if necessary) for final tightening down. I have arranged two HighRoad carriers on my roof rack while leaving sufficient room for a narrow cargo box or kayak/SUP. Plus it leave sufficient rear clearance for fully opening the hatchback.
These carriers are beefy (18 lbs ea.) so do the math on your vehicle and the overall roof load capacity. That's a tradeoff you will have to consider for having the peace of mind that your bikes are staying solidly secured while traveling 70 mph down the highway.

5.0 out of 5 stars Yakima Highroad
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on August 18, 2020
Excellent roofbar carrier - best I’ve ever owned and I’ve used Thule extensively over the years. But the Highroad is perfect for wheel locking and it’s just sooooo much easier to fit and use. Takes 5 minutes to install and 1 minute or less to fit your bike!
I bought Yakima locking barrels and added two of them in; one locks it to the roofbar the other a cable lock to the bike itself. The cable lock is more an deterrent so I wouldn’t leave your bike unsupervised but it might be enough to stall or push on unwanted interest elsewhere.
Overall the utility of this carrier and how secure it is with pure ease of use gives it 5 stars from me.

Tengo el Yakima FrontLoader y el HIghRoad mejora bastante en la rigides y establidad al montar la bici. Los acabos se sienten bastante bien y en general se ve muy solido. Tuve mis dudas con la compatibilidad con mis crossbars circulares pero el sistema de enganche quedo muy bien amarrado.
El unico problema que le veo es que quizas no le puedes montar bicis con un whellbase muy largo, mi bici es talla S 27.5 con whellbase de 1216mm aprox apenas quedo justa.
Por lo demas es un excelente roof rack.
