Roof bars? Genuine or Thule

[EssexGonzo]

My Mont Blanc roof box and 4 non-Thule bike carriers all fit the Thule aerobars. One of them came with both small and large hoops.and none are expensive high end items.

I'm happy to buy Thule or atera as long as "u" bolts fit around them. Had massive problems with the Renault bars because they were 10cm wide and nothing would fit around them. Had to use the t-track system all the time.

Do you already have something that uses u-bolts? Just wondered why you don't want to use the t-track? You could always buy regular rectangle section bars......cheaper too.
I must say I've only ever used the t-track...I have a Kamei box and the Atera bars and never had any worries about the load..even at 85+ mph its very secure.

Just fitted the atera bars and cycle carriers and you will not get a u-bolt round them. You can buy adaptors but you might need to drill some holes in the roofbox

Can anyone point me in the right direction of what 'Adaptor' could be purchased as I've purchased Audi roof bars which I've only discovered my cycle carriers wont fit due to the 'U' bolt being too short.
Thx
