Recommended Crossbars for Retrax XR Tonneau Cover

Updated 04/02/2021 | Published 03/31/2021

Question:

I have a 2021 Chevy Silverado 2500HD with a RetraxOne XR bed cover. I’ve been looking for a cross bar setup to carry our bikes over the cover. I noticed the Y01-140B-NT in your site and am very interested because the price is right where I want to be but I’m not sure if the 65” bars will work or not. I also found the Rhino-Rack Vortex Crossbar System for Retrax XR Series and Mountain Top EVO-M Tonneau Covers - Black - 71inch Long on your site but it’s definitely a lot more money. Curious what you can recommend and what would save me the most money. Thanks in advance.

I do have an option for you but in order to use crossbars with the Retrax XR Tonneau Cover on a full size truck you'll have to choose a crossbar length greater than 70". The Rhino-Rack Vortex Crossbar System part # RRVA180B-RRRLT600 is one of the best cost effective options available and it's a kit so no piecing parts together required.
