Default how much can I load onto a Thule roof rack?...

I'd like to get the roof rack and cargo box for our camping trips. what I'd like to know is if I can put bike racks on either side of the cargo box. The box is 35.2" wide. Is there room on the outside of the feet to put the bike rack? Thanks.

Default Depends on the length of the load bars... If you get long bars, watch your head...

I used to have a similar setup on my Corrado, I would occasionally bonk myself getting in or out..

The bike rails really don't take up that much room though, like 3 or 4 inches max. As long as your pedals clear the box, you should be all set.
