New V70 T5, Question re. accessories, wind noise V70-XC70

The further back, the less noise, it seems to me. Yakima Windjammers (6" airfoils that can snap around the square Thule bars; inexpensive) help disrupt the flow over the bars and reduce noise. And my rack noise is almost entirely gone when I carry bicycles backwards with short tray wheel holders, as far back on the roof as possible. If you do this, be sure to use an extra strap around the wheel in front.
