Hi All,

I have a 2009 A3 Sportback with the FLUSH roof rails. I'm after a decent set of roof bars and a bike rack to go on them.

Not keen on non model specific bars and would prefer rack and bars that are made to "fit together" - Aero Track style.

I have seen so many options/makes/deals. Can any one suggest something? Seen a great deal on roofbox.co.uk for a set of cruz bars and racks but they do not fit cars with roof rails!!!!

Any suggestions or recommendations gratefully received.

Many thanks.

JB

Hi

I previously had a 2007 sportback with roofrails. I do quite abit of mountain biking and used Thule aero bars and 591 bike carriers. Excellent and easy to use. Can put them and take them off in 2-3 minutes.
A lot easier than fittinhg the roof bars to my present A4.

You should get an idea of fitment and costs from:

Hi

if you are looking for a Roof mounted Cycle Carrier, your best bet would be Thule Roof Bars and and Thule Proride 591 Cycle Carrier The 591 is sleek and minimalistic with a lightweight aluminum frame and it is simple to use.

If you would like some help picking the right parts feel free to give us a call on 0161 886 5798.
