I have a Yakima Front Loader on mine, it fits pretty well. I wish the oem bars didn't flex so much though.....

I have same set-up. I notice when I use Inno wind deflector that's when its creaking.

Just picked up this yakima rack off KSL today.. Came with all the control towers, 48" bars, but he said he shaved them down a few to fit his car better, the wind fairing which has a carbon fiber wrap on it, the fatcat 6 ski rack and two highroller bike racks. Also came with a bunch of spare/extra parts such as bolts, screws, some extra clamps for the bike racks, and such.

Really awful pictures but hopefully tomorrow I'll be getting some better ones..






a closeup of the carbon fiber wrap..will probably just put a backcountry goat on it but nothing more, I think it will look really sharp with just one or two stickers on it with the carbon fiber.

Most yakimas will work if they come with universal mighty mounts. I had a raptor aero and it was great, except for the bulkiness.

Inno Fork lock III is like 100 on amazon, and those fit the OEM bars as well.

Cool thanks man. I think I'm pretty set on getting the front loaders. But I'm going to do a little more research before I pull the trigger.

How do people like the Aeroblades from Thule? Ive been looking through this thread and I see most people with other bars with fairings. Im guessing it just a preference thing. I was just wondering if the Aeroblades are worth the extra $$

I don't know how the aeroblades are yet, but I just ordered a set of the aeroblade edge flush mounts and got a pretty good deal. Got the bars from rei and the fit kit from crutchfield, for about $355 shipped. Seems to be about $70 less then getting it elsewhere. Just a heads up if you are interested.

Thanks for the heads up. I appreciate it. I just cant decide if I want the aeroblades or not. If they are quieter then im in. If its a wash between that and a fairing, i'd take the fairing for aesthetics

Rhino cross bars and bike attachment. This thread needed more 5th gen Legacys, just for the sake of variety

I ended up going with the traditional square bars (with fairing) over the aero to maximize versatility.

No, as you will notice there is no drop down in the top bar in the back on the Rola roofrack.

I knew I saw it somewhere before.

By any chance is anyone trying to get rid of any round crossbars for my bugeye wagon? I have two bike racks from my previous car but need the round crossbars.

Also, what size fairing are you using on the wagons??
