The flush design keeps the crossbars tight to the roofline so nothing sticks out past the legs. It gives the rack a clean, from-the-factory look that blends right in with your vehicle’s roof. The bars are custom cut to the exact width needed, so there’s no adjustment or uneven edges—just a sleek setup that looks like it belongs there.
Driving with roof bars can mean a constant whistle on the highway, but these quiet Vortex Aero crossbars are shaped to fight that. Their slim, elliptical aluminum profile cuts through the air smoothly, while the rubberized Vortex strips break up airflow to keep wind noise and drag low. The strips also block dirt and provide a grippy, cushioned surface for your cargo.
You don’t want to worry about your rack flexing under load. These structural-grade anodized aluminum bars use an internal H-shaped extrusion for extra strength without adding weight. Together with the UV-treated, glass-reinforced nylon legs, the system handles up to 220 lbs (always follow your vehicle’s roof limit). The materials are rustproof and weather resistant, so they can stay on year-round.
Whether it’s kayaks in summer or skis in winter, this rack handles it all. Each bar has a built-in C-channel for mounting channel-style carriers and accessories. You can also attach clamp-on gear if you prefer that type of mount. The split Vortex strips make accessory installs simple—just remove and reinsert sections around your mounts to keep the channels sealed, quiet, and clean.
Each leg includes locking covers that secure both the rack and your mounted accessories. The locks are keyed alike so one key handles every cover. With everything locked in place, you get peace of mind when you park at trailheads or overnight stops knowing your setup is protected.

I am happy to help with the fitment of the roof rack. I would like to ask if your 2021 Hyundai Santa Fe has the factory flush mounted rails that run front to back? The bars for the rack are going to be different lengths. the front bar is going to be 38 inches long and the rear bar will be 36.375 inches long. Would you be able to send a picture showing how they are fitting on the roof?

The new bars look great on your Jeep! What are you planning to carry on your roof?

Looks good on there, Rachel! What are you using your kayak for? Fishing or just enjoying the water?

Unfortunately, a certain amount of wind noise is unavoidable once a roof rack is installed on a vehicle. To minimize the noise caused by wind turbulence, make sure the rubber strips are installed on the top and the underside of the crossbars. Any gaps in the strips will allow the wind to catch, and will cause noise.

Excellent product at a substantial savings compared to Thule and Yakama! I leave the racks on my Grand Cherokee all year round and there has been no sign of color fade or sun ware. Only wish would be for a two tone option vs all black. Keep up the great work!

After using my Rhino-rack for over 5 months now I am very happy. Has been a sturdy and well built rack with minimal noise. Appearance excellent too. Very pleased I chose Rhino-rack!
