As for securing the bag on the roof with just 4 points should be okay as some users have feedback doing the same thing and it is still secure at high speeds.

I am in the middle of corresponding email with them for further information, very fast respond and helpful. i going to order this soon. As per their advice, our Rondo only suitable for 11cuft not the 15cuft. They told me that after considering the aerodynamic factor + the antenna on our Rondo. Very details Company to advice customer which to purchase.

Well bro sugen I am planning to place it between the bars and have the tied downs secured to the bars that my EXS has. For EX, think okwaja proposal on roofbag.com might be a better idea. ;-) At least now there are cheaper options as compared to hard boxes!

1. The shipping fees is quite expensive.. USD 60
2. Not sure it is secure enough with only 2 stripes to tie on the roof railing.. & is our roof is strong enough for a 50kg load to rest on it..

The door hooks don't look secure to me.
Sugen,
50kg is not an issue for our roofs. It is stated in the manual.
Wctan,
Thule does offer a soft box option but it isn't as cheap as the Roofbox. Then again, the Thule option is not the same as the Roofbox.

I think the manual means the weight distribute across the roof railing & the cross bar... Not sure is the entire weight just lean/rest on top of the roof... As the beg that we mention is total rest on the roof..
