Yo yo!

In an earlier thread I was threatening to use an older Yakima rack, but opted for a new rack with new car. Here are the results for those who are interested in the Thule Aeroblade system. I have mounted two Thule Echelon bike racks. In the past I have liked the sporty look of a fairing, but as of now it isn't an option to attach to the Aeroblades. Thule likes to say that the racks are so quiet you don't need a fairing. They are super quiet. Don't notice it at all (I don't have a sunroof) If someone has a hack that would attach to the tray on the top of the aero bars, I would love to know about it.

Yeah, I am still interested in a way to get the fairing on it. I see what you are saying about drag.

From rack outfitters:
10) Q: Will Thule fairings fit the AeroBlade?
A: No. The fairing exists primarily to help quiet down noisy load bars. The AeroBlade design is so quiet that wind tunnel testing showed a fairing actually made it louder.
