Can I Use My Thule AeroBlades with Evo Feet on My 2020 Honda CR-V with Bare Roof?
Question:
Will my old Thule Aeroblade fit with Evo clamp 710501? I have a bare roof. Thanks!

While we do have some great crossbar options that work with your 2020 Honda CR-V with a bare roof, the Thule AeroBlades like the TH7602-TH7602 are not designed to work on bare-roofed vehicles. With that factor, it does not work with the Evo Clamp Feet # TH710501 on your roof.
With that being said, if you are looking for the correct Thule setup that uses the Evo Clamp Feet on your CR-V, that includes the following additional parts:
- Thule WingBar Evo Crossbars # TH711420
- Fit Kit for Evo Clamp Feet # TH145046
- Thule One-Key Lock Cores # TH450400
With this setup, you retain an aerodynamic design that ultimately leads to a quieter ride and increased fuel efficiency. Also, since the WingBar Evo Crossbars extend past the Evo feet, you have more usable crossbar space. Additionally, this roof rack provides you with 165 pounds of total weight capacity. As with all roof racks, I recommend consulting with your onwer's manual to make sure that your roof can accommodate the weight you wish to transport.
I went ahead and attached a video that shows this exact setup on a 2021 Honda CR-V to provide you with perspective.
