Yakima SKS Lock Cores. These are the heart of the Yakima SKS system, and are easy to install in every rack and mount that have the words "lockable with SKS cores" next to them. Yakima SKS Lock Cores are available in 2, 4, 6, and 8 packs. Buy the pack that fits your needs.

  • Yakima part #07202

Bottom Line: lock it up.

Talk shop with all the gear freaks out there: ask 'em questions, upload/browse photos, and give your 2¢.

I bought the Fork Lift rack and needed a few locks. These are easy to install and work perfectly.

good idea

By:

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.

I had a similar issue - one of my lock cores has stopped turning. Glad I could buy replacement cores without having to replace the lock.

Durable

By:

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.

My 3.5 year old Yakima Snowcat lock has jammed. Disappointed it broke, but glad I can buy replacement lock cores easily.

Haven't had them long enough to comment on durability. Initially hesitated to purchase because of the added expense ($35), but now glad I did because the added deterrent provides peace of mind.

No they don't. You will need to get the Boat Locker to secure boats to the rack. Currently there isn't a way to use SKS locks to lock the Hully Rollers to the cross bars. Again, the Boat Locker can be used to secure them to the rack system.

easy to install! added piece of mind when getting beers after a good day on the hill. A little pricey but better than replacing your gear!

Plain and Simple

By:

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.

Universal Locking Skewer

By:

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.

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.http://www.backcountry.com/store/YAK0018/Yakima-SKS-Lock-Cores-4-pack.html

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.

Simple. Great

By: Backcountry.com Employee

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.
