Hello,

Wrote to Thule, as I understand it’s still 130km if you even don’t have bikes? This can’t be true, so if I want to go to autobahn I need completely remove all Thule system?

I took Thule bars with bikes to South France at speeds higher than that. Nothing silly, but a decent cruise.
Have also travelled well with Kamei box on Thule bars. A bit quicker at times.
Never had any drama, I wouldn’t worry at all about bars on their own, with the possible exception wind noise and any potential impact on aerodynamics.

I also think that if I have only 4 racks on a roof it’s not big deal going to 200k/h it maybe going eat more petrol not going to happen anything else
