Look at this kayak roof rack for an Audi Q7! The Thule 460 Podium roof rack and Thule 897XT Hullavator kayak roof top rack combination really compliments the Audi’s slick engineering. The portion of this set up that makes up the base car rack system for an Audi Q7 is the 460 Thule Podium car rack system which includes the Thule 460 Foot Pack, Thule 4002 Podium Fit Kit Clips and Thule 58 inch load bars, the correct length load bars for an Audi Q7. For an Audi Q7 kayak roof rack the Thule 897XT Hullavator car top  kayak  rack is an amazing pairing – from the gas-assist struts to the universal ability to mount to any load bars.

2001 Audi TT Roof Bike Rack

by Rack James on May 28, 2010

A fine shot of a 2001 Audi TT with the Inno INA 383 Fork Lock II Bike Rack mounted directly to Audi TT factory roof racks.

This 2001 Audi TT came with the Audi OEM roof racks which have aerodynamic, oval shaped crossbars.  Not all attachments can mount directly to these bars due to their shape, but the Inno INA 383 Fork Lock II bike rack definitely can.   It comes with universal mounting hardware so it can not only mount directly to these bars without adapters, but also virtually any factory crossbars, as well as, of course, Inno, Thule, and Yakima crossbars.  The Inno INA383 bike tray also comes with locks and keys, so it is truly ready to go right out of the box.

 The Thule 400XT base rack system installed on this Audi A4 adds a sporty flair to this fine vehicle, but its main purpose, of course, is carrying a bicycle on the roof.  The Thule 518 Echelon does a great job of that and is in fact Thule’s most secure roof top bike carrier.

Audi A4 Wagon Factory Side Rail Bike Rack System

by Rack James on October 2, 2009

Here’s nice sunny shot of an Audi A4 wagon sportin’ the Yakima RailGrab base system mounted to the raised side rails.  The RailGrab towers can also mount to flush side rails as well as oversized side rails.  Mounted to the crossars are two Yakima SteelHead bike racks.  This guy has chosen to go with the Yakima 58″ Round Bars instead of the recommended Yakima 48″ Round Bars, which leaves plenty of space between his bike trays for perhaps a Yakima cargo box, cargo basket, or rooftop cargo bag.

A fine automobile like this deserves a fine rack system like this.  Here we have the Thule 460R Rapid Podium base system which installs into the factory fixed mounting points of this Audi A6 wagon.  Mounted on top of the Rapid Aero Bars are two premium Thule 594 Sidearm bike racks held in place with Thule X-Adapt 9 adapters.  Clean and tight and alright.

2009 Audi A4 Roof Rack System with Bike Racks

by rackdawg on September 21, 2009

Q: I’ve been searching for compatible options for a 2009 Audi A4 roof rack (sedan model). I can’t find any car racks that work with this car. Am I out of luck?

A: The Yakima Q Tower multi-purpose base rack system is works superbly as a 2009 Audi a4 sedan car rack system. Attaches directly to your vehicle’s smooth rooftop that currently has no factory rack, factory side rails, rain gutters etc. Provides a sturdy base rack system capable of safely transporting all kinds of gear. You can attach any Yakima roof mount bike carriers to the base rack cross bars.
