The REI Member Dividend

The REI dividend is a unique benefit of membership in the REI co-op. It's comprised of your member refund—typically 10% back on eligible purchases—and/or your REI Visa® card rebates.

Each March, active REI members and REI Visa cardholders who earned a rebate receive a refund in the form of an annual dividend notice.

Only active members receive annual dividend notices. To maintain your active status as an REI member, you need to make net merchandise or shipping purchases of at least $10 per year, unless you joined that year. Member numbers are issued in one name and only that person receives the member refund. Your number can be used by others in your family, but it cannot be transferred to someone else.

Questions? Call us at 1-800-426-4840 for more about your dividend or its redemption.

Comments about Yakima CopperHead Bike Mount:

I'm a bike commuter with four people in my family and one car. This rack makes my lifestyle work. It stays on my car all the time and every few days I'll meet up with my wife and kids after work and catch a ride home with my bike on top of the car. It works just the way it should. The quick release lever is designed with just the right amount of opening so that you can any bike on and off without having to tighten the nut on the other side every time, older yakima bike racks required this because the throw wasn't long enough. One drawback is that it is difficult to get on and off the bar (takes about 3-5 minutes, 3 bolts in the front under a security cover, one wingnut in the back) however, it is secure as a result.
Sidenote: I drove into my garage with my bike still on top. $1800 worth of damage to the roof of my Toyota RAV4 but all I needed was new Q clips. The Q towers, bars and bike rack were fine. The bike was still attached to the rack! Rock solid.

Comments about Yakima CopperHead Bike Mount:

I have been using the copperhead for 3 years now and have yet to have a problem with it. I even bought another one because I got a second bike. This has been great to take to races to save room in my SUV. I haven't used other high end yakima stuff, but they work great for it to be yakima's least expensive roof rack. I am even considering getting a third one for my third bike, just so the rack will be uniform.

Great product consistant with other reviews.The little plastic ratcheting/strap that secures the rear wheel is a little cumbersome sometimes but the upside is I haven't been able to break it yet.It's been on top of my car for two years and it hasn'budged.No rust , fade , bend,break ,nothing!

Comments about Yakima CopperHead Bike Mount:

I bought these racks for use with our mountain bikes and to bring my hybrid bike up to work in Boulder. It's been very stable, is quite easy to install (put both racks on by myself about 20min on the first one and about 10min on the second), and fits both bikes with ample room and security. Also, my significant other rides a 29er and this rack fits it just fine.

I'd say the only issue I've had with the rack is learning which way (and how to best) turn the ratchets. Not much of a con, which is why I gave it 5 stars anyway.
