Video Transcript for Review of Thule ProBar Evo Black Aluminum Crossbars 79 Inch - TH34FR55XB

Hi, everybody. Andy here with etrailer. Let's take a quick look at this Thule ProBar Evo black aluminum crossbar set. Now these are heavy duty aluminum roof load bars that are designed to give you a pretty flexible setup for carrying gear on top of your vehicle. Now what makes these stand out is the tri-slot design. So I'm gonna go ahead and actually take the bar that's the farthest back here, 'cause I do have one of the end caps off already, just so you can see a side-profile view here.

So there are multiple channels that are built into these bars so you're gonna be able to mount different accessories at the same time or adjust things exactly how you want them. The T-tracks on the top and the rear are going to make installing and removing accessories like your bike racks, cargo boxes, or kayak mounts, quick and straightforward. And then there's that lower T-track that's going to connect directly to your vehicle's roof-mounting system so everything is going to stay secure. Now do keep in mind that this is going to be just for these bars only. This does not include the roof-mounting system, so if you don't already have that, please go through our Vehicle Fit Guide here at etrailer, pop in the year, make, and model of your vehicle, answer any other questions that it might have for you, and then our Fit Guide will walk you through getting everything that you need to mount this on your roof if you don't already have the roof-mounting system.

So like I said, you're gonna get two of these black bars. They're 79-inches long each, and together they're gonna handle up to about 220 pounds. They're also pretty lightweight for how strong they are. Just about 10 pounds or so. But they're gonna look great with that black aluminum finish.

Hold up really well for you. One thing to keep in mind is you are limited by the weight capacity of your roof. So even though these are rated for 220, your roof might not be, so make sure that you're not exceeding the manufacturer's recommended weight limits for your roof. Trying to give you a closeup here real quick, you are going to get this hardware for the bars and also the rubber strips to fill in the slots that are not in use, and to fill in the gaps as well, just so you don't have air whistling through there. So you'll have plenty of rubber stripping that's going to come with this as well.

If you have any other questions though, don't hesitate to reach out to us. We ultimately want to make sure that you're getting exactly what you need. Well again, my name's Andy. Thank you for joining me.
