I prefer roof systems myself. I have had yakima with round bars for the base and it was very wind noisy. I now use Inno rack system with rectangle bar base rack and it has little to no wind noise, you do not even know its there. I also do not use the wind block baffle on the front. I use two fork mount racks and a frame clamp mount in the middle for three bikes.

Thanks for your reply! Any other opinions? I saw Yakima, but want to check all the options. Has any of you tried Thule Bike Rack? Was searching online and I guess I found the one I really like: http://www.carid.com/thule/thule-vertex-hitch-bike-rack-1682953.html

What do you guys think?
