“Superb quality roofbars - takes a bit of fixing as the instructions are all pictograms but it is fairly obvious how it goes together. All parts are of excellent quality and when assembled these are surewly the Rols Royce of roofbars. Claims about themn being very quiet are absolutely true, which surprised me. I actally removed them and re-fitted as I couldn't hear any effect of these on bnoise levels in our Volvo. Thet are strong and are now permanently fixed to the car as there doesn't seems to be any fuel consumption disadvantage of doing this. Really impressed by these bars and certainly worth the small premium on price.”
“Took a lot of time researching before buying these and after two long car journeys with them I am not disappointed. There design means it is really quiet even with a heavy roofbox added on top and I can easily get them on and off (though the first time assembling the feet took me longer than I expected). Definitely worth it though and would recommend it to others, so I thought I'd write a quick review.”
“Fairly easy to fit; needed a bit of pouring over the instructions, but got it done within about 30 mins. Once in, they're solid as a rock, no rattling.”
“Recent purchase of the rYakima Whisbar roof bars to carry a ladder. I'd normally just put the Bars on for the task in hand, but these bars are so quiet you would not hear them at all, even with the sunroof open. Very sturdy and a lovely fit, they were not my first choice but so glad I purchased them.”
“I purchased these roof bars to use on my Mazda 3, with roof fixing points, with bike racks for holiday to Cornwall. They are very secure, easy to fit and with only the bars fitted, have a minor impact on fuel econonmy and noise.
The insutructions made it look fairly complicated to assemble the feet as it includes a few parts that wern't required for my car, however it is actually very simple and really easy to assemble.
The only issue with these bars is the feet hinges have a small metal piece which fallls out very easily when fitting so its something to check when installing and be sure not to loose.
Overall they are fantastic roof bars, very secure and quiet when driving. Would reccomend!”
