Thule SlideBars are a great solution for problematic issues such as having a high vehicle or loading several bike carriers on to the roof. With a pair of SlideBars you can now slide the bar outwards by 60 cm to ether side of your vehicle making loading and unloading much easier. Imagine having 3 or more bikes on top of your roof, to reach over for the third one you will need to have to lean across the vehicle's roof to be able to reach the bike in the center, most likely a step ladder will be needed which is not always convenient. Now you can stand right next to your vehicle and access your load with ease.
Thule SlideBars incorporate a full length slot underneath each bar which enables greater flexibility for fitting to other sizes of vehicles. This is unlike the classic square bars and the Wing bars which are are limited to a set width.
SlideBars are available in three bar lengths 127 cm (SlideBar 891), 144 cm (SlideBar 892) and 162 cm (SlideBar 893).
The SlideBars are not only limited to fitting kayak carriers or bike carriers, but can be used for many other carriers such as a snow board carriers, ski carriers, roof boxes and many more types of Thule Products.
Attaching your carriers to the SlideBar is truly easy and straight forward, with the quick and easy T-Track system you can simply slide the Thule products into the slots and with a quick turn of the fastener tighten them on to the bars.
