A friend has kindly donated his old Thule bars, but a new set of feet for my fixpoint mounts runs to more than buying the whole lot new using the Cruz premium range. (They're an old model of Thule, so I have to replace the whole foot rather than just the fitting kit). Any thoughts would be welcome.
In reply to Ridge: I've got them on an Insignia estate, no problems with them and the build quality is good but need a bit of assembling 1st time.
Only drawback is noise as they are not aerodynamic.
In reply to Ridge: To be honest I haven't bothered checking fuel economy and I try and take them off when not shifting stuff about. Bike goes in the back usually and the roof rack is mainly used for DIY materials etc.
Lorraine McCall began her attempt today at a continuous, self-powered round of the Grahams, a four-month tour of upland Scotland combining walking and bikepacking. If successful, she'll be the first person that we know of to do it.
