The Rhino-Rack Vortex Roof Rack is built from full-length aluminum crossbars that can handle up to 165 lbs of gear. The strong construction gives you the confidence to haul kayaks, cargo boxes, or camping gear without flexing or wobbling. It’s a setup made for real trips where stability matters most.
Long drives can get noisy when air rushes around roof bars. The Vortex crossbars use an aerodynamic shape and rubberized strips in the top channels to help reduce drag and cut down on the whistling sound. You’ll notice quieter highway driving and less vibration when you’re loaded up for a trip.
These aero-style bars are ready for nearly any adventure setup. The top channels accept channel-mount carriers, while the shape also works with clamp-on attachments. That means you can mount bike racks, watersport cradles, ski holders, or cargo boxes using the accessories you already own—no need to change your system every season.
Each crossbar includes built-in plastic locks that help deter theft of channel-mount accessories. If you want even more protection, you can upgrade to all-metal locks (RRVA-LEC4?– sold separately). The lockable cover plates on the legs keep the rack itself secured once installed, so your setup stays put whether you’re parked overnight or stopped along the road.
The system installs directly to your roof’s ditches using included brackets and hardware, creating reliable mounting points for the legs. Once in place, the setup feels solid and permanent—ideal for anyone who wants a rack that’s always ready to load up when adventure calls.

Still happy. Theres a whistle, but you can fix it with a bit of foam insulation in the bottom of the rail.

Still rock solid after a year. Very happy with the Rack. My daughter has used it from time to time over the past year when something wont fit in her car, and shes had no problems with it at all.
