Abstract
A load carrier foot for attaching a load carrier bar to a vehicle and a roof rack having the load carrier foot. The load carrier foot includes a body having a support surface, where the support surface is adapted to rest against a first portion of the vehicle, and a bracket having an aperture adapted to grip about a second portion of the vehicle. An attachment arrangement provides a clamping force between the support surface of the body and the bracket. The bracket includes an aperture adapted to permit the attachment arrangement to be positioned between two positions to enable an easy mounting and dismounting of the load carrier foot.
