When using the RetraxPRO XR Hard Tonneau Cover w/ Trax Rails - Retractable - Aluminum - Matte # RTT-80245 the locking handle will not interfere with the Rhino-Rack Vortex Crossbar System for Retrax XR Series and Mountain Top EVO-M Tonneau Covers - Black - 65" Long # RRVA165B-RRRLT600. They are specifically designed to work together, so it won't interfere with the function at all.
