The aero bars that come on the Malone AirFlow2 Roof Rack # MPG216 for your 2018 Toyota RAV4 measure 3" wide x 1" tall which is right on par with Thule and Yakima aero-style bars. As long as the bike rack or cargo carrier you are looking at is compatible with aero bars you are good to go!
The only other thing to check is that the Malone AirFlow2 has a minimum crossbar spread of 27-1/2" but that shouldn't be a problem either. If you let me know what bike rack or cargo carrier you are interested in I would be more than happy to give more insight! If you aren't sure what to look at I can make some recommendations if you let me know what style bikes you have and what kind of cargo you are looking to carry.
When we shoot our review videos on roof rack accessories we usually use a roof rack from the same company for the sake of consistency so unfortunately we don't have any videos of what you are asking about.
