Malone Airflow 2 Roof Rack and Thule Upride Bike Rack Recommendation for 2016 Mazda CX-5
Question:
Im considering the Malone Airflow2 50inch roof rack for my Mazda CX-5. Ive never used the channel T-track system before. Im also considering the Thule Upride bike rack to put ontop of it. Do you know if they are compatible via the T-Track System? What are the dimensions of the Malone T-Track channel?

Expert Reply:
The Malone crossbars have top channels that use the standard dimensions for track mounted roof accessories, so the Thule Upride part # TH599000 will fit in the top channel of the # MPG215 or could wrap around the bar too. The Airflow2 part # MPG215 is also a confirmed fit for your 2016 Mazda CX-5 so this would be a great setup.
The Malone roof rack is a really nice option too that is priced really well. Nothing else really comes near it in terms of quality. The Upride is also a great bike rack too. It's very easy to use and allows you to keep the front wheel on the bike so that's one less step to mess with.
