Hey Guys!
For those who may have missed it, we debuted our TrailRax Modular Roof Rack for the Ineos Grenadier at Overland Expo West 2024 in Flagstaff AZ this past weekend. This thing was a hit and we were very excited to show off what we have been working on. While unfortunately we were not able to make these available for purchase at the show, the team is working hard to make sure we provide a roof rack that Ineos Grenadier owners want and look for.
A few concerns came up at the show that we have documented... The height of the rack and overall profile. This profile was made just tall enough to be able to open the safari windows with the rack still on. This also means with all the gear on your rack, the safari windows will still open without hitting gear or anything on the rack. While the niche portion of customers looking for that want a high enough rack for it, We had a lot of concerns of getting a rack that fits with certain height restrictions and making this roof rack as low profile as we can. What is everyone's compromise on this? Are you team, being able to open safari windows with the full length and current height of the rack? Or are you team low profile rack?
Something to keep in mind: We assume the 3/4 length rack will be most popular for the Grenadier platform but also want to offer as many benefits as possible for the roof rack ownership. We assume with a full length rack, most customers will run 3/4 length but when it comes to getting ready for a weekend trip or week long trip with the family or friends, you bolt up the front 1/4 rack for additional storage mounting.
Let us know if you have any questions and we would love to hear your feedback as an owner of a grenadier. Would you be willing to give up the usability of your safari windows (only when the front 1/4 is on to make a full length rack) for low profile and minimal vehicle height increase?
