Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

They are pricey, but they work well, look seamless on the car. They have a slight curve, which is only a small problem when tying plywood directly to them. The airfoil shape makes the design look a lot sleeker as well!

I went with the whispbar over the q towers and the thule system based on capacity alone - 150 pounds for my set up. Goes on and off easier than my thule rack did. I love this rack because if the canoe is up top i can still fill the bed of the truck wi... Read More

There is noise when i had the sunroof open, but i of course expected that. No issues so far (carrying skis) after four trips and could not hear any wind noise. It is not that annoying whistle we all know and love.

Buyers pay attention, you have to buy 2 because they are only sold as 1 bar which ='s the 1b. Super fast shipping. No joke. Awesome bars; love them.

Quality

Installed easily by myself with the compatible fit kit in no time.

Looks great on my car with the wb200 bike racks.

They are fairly easy to adjust and lock in place however, the fit kit is the inferior product.

It would have been more challenging with the flush bars.

Price

I thought that was the price you paid for racks to carry your toys.

Shipping

It was packed up for shipping very well, and the bars are exactly as described look practically new .

You also need a fit kit so a bit more cost, but saved on shipping and tax so overall very pleased so far.

Competitiveness

I recently bought a full-size mattress and had no trouble tying it down to the whispbars.

I use this rack to carry a 16 foot canoe (about 90lbs), using the keel over canoe carrier system.

I bought a sportrack cargo carrier and the stock adapters did not fit over the whispbar bars.

And they literally whisper at about 40mph.
