Designed with a slippery JetFlow teardrop shape, the Yakima JetStream Base Rack Bars deliver aerodynamic efficiency, robust carrying performance, and quiet travel at highway speeds. Part of the new Streamline System, the JetStream Base Rack Bars mount to Yakima's Timberline, Ridgeline, and Skyline Towers (sold separately). The JetStream Base Rack Bars include two crossbars and four endcaps.
Designed with wind tunnel testing, the JetStream's ultra-quiet, efficient design slips through headwinds with effortless precision. Seamless extruded aluminum provides maximum strength, courtesy of JetTruss internal support. Its anodized finish accentuates your vehicle's sharpness. Plus, its T-slot with SmartFill push-down enables easy mounting and accessory attachment without creating excess drag.

Easy to mount using the Skyrise towers. Really helpful the there is a ruler on the underside so you can insure your bars are centered correctly. I didn’t realize the ski racks I owned wouldn’t fit (older Yakima) but a quick call to Yakima and within a few minutes they helped me right out. Top notch costumer service. Ordered the universal mighty mounts. While Yakima didn’t have them in stock they suggested a couple of online sources but came back to BackCounty to place my order due to there fast and free shipping.

This will really help us in keeping the back of our SUV free and clear of items that we can now store in a cargo box. With having a dog now we will be able to take him on road trips with ease.

I drive a Jeep, so it isn't the most aerodynamic car out there. There is no noticeable noise after I added these bars to my roof, if you have a sedan or a more aerodynamic vehichle, they may add more noticable noise. I paired these with the Timberline Raised Rail Tower system, total installtion took less than 45 minutes. I used the provided "Yakima Car Rack Configurator" linked on this page and all the recommended parts are perfect. I added the Fat Cat Evo 6 to the Jetstream bars, using the T Slot connectors, it creates a very low profile ski rack that can hold up to 6 pairs of skis or 4 snowboards.

I used these bars with the Baseline Tower system and the HighRoad bike holder. Everything works well together and is nice and quiet. Very secure. I will never question the safety of my bikes with this rack.

These bars make almost no noise and have had no noticeable impact on fuel economy. Easy to install with the baseline towers and clips. Great way to haul toys and gear around.

I recently upgraded from the round bars to the Jetstream bars with my new vehicle. These bars are excellent. They are much quieter than my round bars (even with the fairing combined with the round bars). The shape and mounts seem easier when I have the non-standard items to mount (like boards from the hardware store). My only downside is that it seems like Yakima accessories for the T-slots are limited, but I hope they have more in the future.

Love these bars! They are very easy to install, Im using them with the timberline raised rail tower system and they fit together easily and seamlessly. They are really nice looking, I went with the black. They are also very quiet I dont notice much additional noise with them up there and with the aero design I have not noticed much of a reduction in gas mileage. The 50 inch size fits great on my 2017 golf alltrack without too much overhang on the sides.

Super easy to install with Timberline Tower system I purchased. I can't believe how quiet these are. Finally have a rack system I can drive with and have the windows down without feeling like a plane is landing on my roof!

Easy to install and easy to use! Got the Skyline Tower System with these. No reservations or worries with carrying my MB's. Only snag that came up but was quickly resolved was that one of my bikes didn't fit but I just got the 15mm T axel for adapter and it fit.
