Thankfully, these bars are also available in black instead of onlye clear anodized, so they look great.
Then I went with the Thule Flow cargo box. It's low profile, all black, and wraps around the Aero bars nicely. I was also told that this model is German-manufactured and is the quietest one in their line when empty.
The Thule dealer didn't think it would work, but I was able to offset the cargo box and still fit a bike rack, but it did work! Thule ThruRide 535, mounted in reverse, fits beautifully and holds the Cervelo P2 flawlessly. Perhaps not all bikes would fit - fork clearance might be an issue - but mine does, and I've driven 500km with it on three separate trips. The fork mount also locks the bike to the rack.
The fork mount, trunk, and rack itself all share a common key thanks to my Thule dealer.
