hey.im a cfa volunteer and i

hey.

im a cfa volunteer and i was at a job today (car crash) and this van that was involved had a pair of rhino racks on his, and he hd a ladder tied down to it. problem was when the cars collided, the momentum of the ladder tore the racks clean off. i mean the whole lot just came straight off and into the rear window of the car in front of it which it had hit.

just something to be wary of. i know i wont be buying rhinos now...

Yeah Rhino's arn't the best BUT as the cross bars on an io are a "grab" type and not a "pinned" type I always run a rope down to the spare wheel to stop it flying forward if i hit a massive bump or jump on the anchors.
