good idea

it is a good to have a core system where you are able to buy more cores that mach up with the key you already have. I have had durability issues with them though. 2 out of the six that i have for my ski/bike rack just wont turn and thats only after a couple years of hard use.

Durable

After riding around in the weather for a couple of years, the locks opened right up when I decided to switch the rack to my new truck. Other locks would have seized in the conditions these locks endure.

They are nothing special, until you consider that they keep your stuff from being stolen. They work like they should, and I haven't had any serious problems with my old ones either. sometimes the key won't turn, but take the key out and re-insert and it has been working for 5+ years now and just bought another set for my new Yakima boat rack. works well.

I already have two lock cores. Can I buy two more that are keyed...

I already have two lock cores. Can I buy two more that are keyed the same as the two I already have?

Yes, talk to a Yakima dealer (like your local bike shop) and they can order the lock cores for you. If you really only need two, it'd be far easier (and only ~$5 more expensive) to order the 4-pack of SKS lock cores.

Simple. Great

The SKS Lock Cores are super simple to use. Just insert the key and stick them in. I used this set of two with my King Cobra Bike Rack. The bike rack only took one lock, so I'm going to use the other one with my old ski rack.

Bomb Locks

Locks were super easy to install, and seem to be very secure, with a strong construction. Better yet they don't freeze even in blizzard conditions

The locks were very easy to install and work great. I haven't been boarding yet so I'm not sure about weathering, but so far so good.

Universal Locking Skewer

I find this item quite useful and easy to use. The product came within ten days. I would recommend it to any one who has a roof bike rack. Although this item is by Yakima it works well with my Saris bike rack. The instructions for putting the lock cores in were easy to follow.
