Amazon.com Product Description
Providing the base for Thule multi-purpose roof-rack systems, the two 50-inch load bars in this set are made of 2 mm cold-rolled steel, galvanized inside and out for long-lasting rust protection, and coated with rugged weather-resistant polyethylene. The bars' square profile provides maximum clamping stability for load security. They come with a limited lifetime warranty against defects.p strongWhat's in the Box?/strongbr 2 x LB50 50-inch load bars, instruction guidep strongManufacturer's Warranty/strongbr Limited lifetime warrantyp strongAbout Thule/strongbr To say that Thule's beginnings in the U.S. were humble would be an understatement. Founding member Ake Skeppner sold products at windsurf competitions on the New England shoreline, exhibited the product line at a number of different trade shows, and even canvassed local retailers in the greater New York area, all from his "office"--a now-famous station wagon. Initial success was found in the small but growing sport of windsurfing where a strong, reliable roof rack was an indispensable piece of equipment. This was quickly followed by success in the ski business where Thule's Swedish heritage certainly helped the product gain rapid acceptance.p By the mid-1980s, the company sold products directly to ski and windsurfing shops but sold through distributors to address the large and growing bike business. A risky decision was made to terminate these distributor relationships and sell direct to retailers through a network of independent sales representatives. Much of the company's market success today can be traced to that decision. Shortly after, Ake hired an engineer and set up a small assembly plant in Elmsford, New York in order to design and manufacture bike carriers that would offer the features demanded by the U.S. consumer and compete effectively with other racks on the market.p The company has since grown rapidly through product innovation, a commitment to quality, and the continuance of a strong entrepreneurial spirit as well as continuing to evolve their products to meet the needs of users.p

 Bars great; picture of product slightly misleading August 15, 2008
Eric J. DELONG (Whitehorse, Yukon Canada)

This is a pretty straightforward purchase: two Thule-brand bars of dimension 1.25" x 0.75" -- exactly what I needed to replace my old (ancient!) Terzo-brand bars that finally rusted out and gave way. Only 3 stars are awarded as I found the picture misleading: the end caps are NOT included, I'll have to buy these separately now. Had I known (or read the written description which omits mention of the caps) I would have sprung the extra $5 to get the caps included in my free shipping.

 Load em up! July 18, 2008

Good crossbars for the roof system. I could have gone a little longer on the bars but there's enough gap on the outside to fit a bike carrier.
 Thule LB58 58" Load Bars (1Pr) March 20, 2006

The Thule load bars that I actually received were only 50 inches long, and I needed the 58 inch load bars, so I really couldn't do anything with them. It specifically said right in the title that they were the 58 inch bars, but they were not. I even wrote amazon back to try and right the situation, but no one contacted me, so I had to sell the bars on ebay and buy another pair that were the right length.

What can I say? They are load bars for Thule Racks; they work. Amazon found the cheapest price around, and the vendor shipped very promptly. I would trust Rackbarn for future purchases of this type.
