Well after less than a year all my Thule gear broke all within a week...First my box when I guess I loaded to many skis in it and the box cracked on top. Seccond was one of my bike racks that cracked when I was pushing down the lever and heard a cracking sound and have not been able to get it to get tight enough since.  Last was the other bike rack that somehow got a crack in the side of it...I have no Idea how it happened. Since I got it all through pro from there makeing returning a big hassle...buy yakima

all the new thule gear is all plastic and feels weak , a bunch of my buddys have had simmilar problems with bike racks breaking...I think some of the older thule bike racks and boxes are better than the current versions...
