d2mini,
do you already have a roof rack system such as Thule/Yakima or the OEM one?
Sorry, not sure what's you're exactly asking about.
I'm not sure if the Thule or Yakima fork mounts fit properly on the OEM rack.
I'm not sure about the OEM fork mount fitting on the Thule/Yakima racks.. Lol, why would anyone do that though.
You're gonna get much more variety with aftermarket. From what I've seen, the OEM fork mounts are of two kinds:
- The one that "swallows" the front wheel
- The one that holds up the down tube

Ok, i guess i'm still not being clear.
I am purchasing the OEM roof rack. The main bars.
Then i don't know what to do about the bike carrier attachement that attaches to these main bars and holds your bike. Do i buy the factory one or aftermarket.
Is this clear now? I don't know how else to explain it.

One bike of ours has a very thick aero downtube and the other is thin aluminum and says "do not clamp" so I adapted the Velovise trays. It was a lot of work, Grendel's solution seems better.
Also, someone has actually drilled the Thule load bars and mounted those on the factory uprights. That way you can use any Thule carrier.l
