Hello all!

I wanted to share my excitement to announce that Spider Roof Rack has launched its first Rivian specific product:

https://www.spiderroofrack.com/product-page/rivian-r1t

I've been running the prototype for a few months so AMA.

I really want to point out the cost.

Spider has no desire to institute a Rivian tax.

Looks like a quality rack and price seems very reasonable!

He's got a great desire!

Trying to get a donor vehicle into his shop in Covina, CA, to do the scan/measure/ prototyping
If he needs to take quick measurements, I can help.. I live in that area, but since I'm not looking for a rack right now, I'm not willing to leave the car or have to wait for an extended period of time.

Thanks for adding your photos. Looks pretty good. The length over the rear of the cab is throwing me a bit but I'm glad it's working for you.

No problem!

The length matches the length of the roofline with the spoiler, it just vanishes a bit with the color contrast

How is it on the highway with added wind noise? Looks great but curious about that. Thanks

I'm genuinely curious how y'all are getting a solid impression of this rack from those tiny photos.
I just get really close to the screen.

Hey Steve great question
The rack has an adjustable front wind fairing and includes a weather strip/gasket so it can be adjusted to eliminate any noise/ gaps between the vehicle and the rack

Unloaded, it’s minimal
No perceptible noises around town
At highway speeds, I cannot hear it if the music volume is at or above 10 or if the AC is on
I drove from Laguna to Overland Expo with a surf board on it and it did make some more noticeable noise, but I attribute that to the nose of the surfboard more than the rack itself
