 Strong & DurableJun 18, 2010
I've had a Thule rack for 20 years with the same bars.
Ski racks, kayak racks, even just the bars to carry oversized items - they never bent.
Durable rubber coating.
I just purchased another rack for another car - I highly recommend Thule.
Note - order the end caps - exposed steel on the ends otherwise - and, contrary to the photo, they are not included.
Work great, but attachments can damage skin and end caps are NOT includedNov 13, 2009
These bars work really well, but there are two things to know:
1) the end caps are pictured, but are NOT included with these. The end caps come with the foot pack or can be purchased separately
2) when you attach things like Thule bike racks or ski attachments, the plastic skin can become cut by tightening the attachments to the bar. This can lead to rust and failure over the very long term. They should have used a tiny bit tougher plastic skin.
Be sure to use the end caps or they will rust from the inside out.

 Thule is over priced junkJul 05, 2009
I bought the whole Thule kit. The load bars are not that strong and the kit itself is very poorly designed and way over priced. Cheap flat hooks and a cheap carrier will work just as well.

Bars great; picture of product slightly misleadingAug 15, 2008
This is a pretty straightforward purchase: two Thule-brand bars of dimension 1.25" x 0.75" -- exactly what I needed to replace my old (ancient!) Terzo-brand bars that finally rusted out and gave way. Only 3 stars are awarded as I found the picture misleading: the end caps are NOT included, I'll have to buy these separately now. Had I known (or read the written description which omits mention of the caps) I would have sprung the extra $5 to get the caps included in my free shipping.

 Load em up!Jul 18, 2008
Good crossbars for the roof system. I could have gone a little longer on the bars but there's enough gap on the outside to fit a bike carrier.
