Universal curved roof bars: silence in addition to capacity
There are two ways to mess up a set of universal roof bars: get the width wrong, or choose a profile that whistles. This pair of aluminum crossbars gets both right. It is offered in five roof widths, from 92 to 115 cm, and features a curved profile that the manufacturer claims significantly reduces wind noise. You can load a cargo box, basket, or roof bike rack and still hear the radio at 110 km/h.
A curve that follows the roofline instead of looming over it
The bar is not straight: it follows a slight curve, with ends that slope down toward the sides of the roof. This design has two effects. The first is aerodynamic, as the airflow detaches less abruptly. The second is aesthetic: the whole looks integrated into the car and harmonious, whereas a flat crossbar sitting flush highlights the slightest difference in height. These roof crossbars are designed to be discreet, making them easy to keep on all year round.
The black finish enhances this effect. On most bodywork, the bars appear as a thin line rather than an added structure, even when the roof is empty.
Aeronautical aluminum and two sets of hooks: the mechanics of the pair
The manufacturer claims to use a high-strength aeronautical-type aluminum alloy, tested to withstand high temperatures, prolonged sun exposure, rain, and drought. The mounting system relies on metal hooks that fit into the door frame, with a rubber pad inside to prevent marking the paint.
Important point: two types of hooks are supplied with each set, to be chosen according to the shape of the edge of your door frame. This is what makes these rail-less roof bars compatible with a wide range of vehicles. The stated capacity is 150 kg, evenly distributed across the two bars, and always within the maximum roof load specified by your car manufacturer. The set includes 2 bars, 2 sets of hooks, adjustment screws, 4 soft rubber pads, and 4 keys.
- Five roof widths — 92, 100, 105, 110, and 115 cm, to be chosen after measuring the roof.
- Curved profile — designed to reduce wind noise and blend into the roofline.
- Anti-theft roof bar — key-locking, with four keys supplied with the set.
- Two types of hooks supplied — to adapt to different door frame edges.
- Stated load of 150 kg — evenly distributed, within the vehicle's limits.
- Compatible with accessories — roof cargo box, basket, roof bike rack, bags.
Measure the flat width of your roof before ordering
The manufacturer bases the sizes on roof width: model A is approximately 92 cm, B 100 cm, C 105 cm, D 110 cm, and E 115 cm. The measurement is taken on the flat part of the roof, excluding the sides. This step is not optional: it determines how well the set fits. When installing, first compare your two sets of hooks with the door frame channel, position the bars, tighten them alternately, then lock them. This drill-free installation should be checked after the first few kilometers and before every loaded trip.
Can a bike rack or roof cargo box be attached?
Yes, that is in fact their main use. The profile shape accepts standard mountings, whether it is a roof cargo box, basket, or roof bike rack. Two precautions, however: always add the weight of the accessory to the weight of the load to stay below the vehicle's limit, and check the compatibility of your accessory's clamp with a curved-section aluminum roof bar. If in doubt, measure the width and height of the profile before buying the accessory.
A well-chosen pair of bars starts with a measurement
We offer this reference in five widths because that is the only way to properly fit universal bars. Our team speaks French and can help you convert your roof measurement into the right model. At Becquet Voiture, roof transport is treated with the same compatibility standards as body parts.
Measure your roof, choose your model, and drive loaded without wind noise.
