Options:

FULL RAILS - Designed for the tourer. The rails running around the perimeter of the rack act as a load block, helping to prevent larger items such as swags and tents from shifting when loading and unloading, as well as during transit.

3/4 RAILS - A cross between full and trade rails, 3/4 rails, along with an optional roller kit, assist with easy rear loading of large and awkward items while still providing load security at the front of the rack. Also designed for rear folding rooftop tents, subject to tent width.

1/4 Rails - Perfect for campers, this style of rail is great for rooftop tents while still providing ample storage and load security at the front of the rack.

Trade Rails - The trade option; great for loading long items such as timber and ladders with an optional roller kit to help glide long or awkward items onto the rack. The side rails prevent items from slipping or rolling of the rack during loading and allow you to fill the rack right up to the edge.
