Just ordered even though I haven't taken delivery of my R1S but the cross bars arrived. Thanks!

Has anyone here tried this? Do I need this on the front one or all 3 (R1S with crossbars in all 3 positions).

That was pretty slick getting the Amazon rivian van driving in the background. How did you manage that one?

Lol I didn’t notice. All the Amazon trucks around here are Rivian, I sometimes see an army of them driving around.

So the video says 2, but it is 70 inches which cut in half should cover both bars right?

They measure just shy of 22" on each half of the crossbars. I ordered 2x 70" sections to cover my 3 crossbars.

How’d you get the 3rd one? And also, what do you use it for?

Wasn't there a concern about the mounts not being perfectly level with each other due to the shape of the roof so if you were to put cargo on all three bars you wouldn't be able to tighten it down without "breaking the item's back" ?

I ordered another pair and split it with another local R1S owner.

I haven't noticed that. I've used it minimally but bought it to support a RTT that I've yet to purchase.

I originally had them as part of my order but after reading reviews of wind noise i'm holding out for Thule or Yakima to come out with some

Not sure what you're implying, but the Rivian OEM ones are made by Yakima.
