Thule RB53 Rapid Aero Aluminum Roof Rack Load Bars (53-Inch, Set of 2) B000OWTRXU


Thule RB53 Rapid Aero Aluminum Roof Rack Load Bars (53-Inch, Set of 2)
I would like to introduce Thule RB53 Rapid Aero Aluminum Roof Rack Load Bars (53-Inch, Set of 2) of Thule Sports. The conclusion is I loved the "style" or "design" of these aero bars over the Yakima round bars, and ultimately it's what sold me on the Thule system. It's a few bucks more than the standard square, steel bars but the aluminum load bars are lightweight, aerodynamic, and do not rust. Looks good on the car as well. Rack was on in <1/2 hour. I would reccomend it definately. Aluminum load bars enhance any vehicle's appearance and deliver maximum load carrying capacity...[Read more >>]

Euro Aero bars!
So they're not really "euro", but it was catchy. I loved the "style" or "design" of these aero bars over the Yakima round bars, and ultimately it's what sold me on the Thule system. The polished aluminum looks pretty slick with the black accent. Install was easy, there are only a couple things to note. First, it's a little tricky to get the rubber piping on. What worked best for me was to start at one end of the aero bar and get the rubber strip started. Then, I just worked my way down the bar, pressing the rubber strip into the grooves. Second, you'll need to cut a little of the rubber strip off at each end in order to get the endcaps on. The endcaps have a clip on them - open it up, slide the endcap on the aero bar, and close the clip. Cut the rubber strip so that it butts up to the endcap. It'll take a little trial and error, but it's not bad. Overall, it's a great looking product and is very sturdy and light weight.


Great Rack System by Thule!
The Rapid Aero series is the way to go. It's a few bucks more than the standard square, steel bars but the aluminum load bars are lightweight, aerodynamic, and do not rust. Plus, it works well with the quick grip hardware....makes life so much easier!


Fit great on my Mazda CX-7
Installed them on my CX-7 and they fit great with no over hang. Looks good on the car as well.


Nice looking new design- forgot to design out the wind noise
The bars and foot kit went together well and attached to my factory rack. I don't have the accessories (bike carriers) on yet. The install was pretty straight forward. Rack was on in
