The low-profile, aerodynamic Rhino-Rack ROC25 roof rack lets you carry gear and accessories on your vehicle's roof quietly and with little wind drag. It's designed for installation on a naked roof (a roof without factory raised side rails, flush rails, fixed mounting points, tracks, or rain gutters). The rack's Vortex Aero crossbar has built-in rubber strips that disrupt airflow for a quiet ride, and the bar is constructed of aluminum so it won't rust. This bar blends seamlessly with the support legs to provide a from-the-factory look, and it is custom cut to your specific vehicle so it requires no adjustment during installation. The legs also include built-in locks that protect your gear and the rack from theft.


Aerodynamic Design

The rubberized Vortex strips in the top channel of the crossbar disrupt airflow with evenly spaced, wave-shaped grooves. This carefully controlled turbulence minimizes wind noise and whistling, so you won't need to add a fairing to your roof rack. And the slim, elliptical Vortex Aero crossbar cuts through the air with minimal drag - even at highway speeds.


The ROC25 roof rack has a flush-mount design so the crossbar terminates at the legs with no overhang. This provides the rack with a seamless, from-the-factory look, and it also helps to improve aerodynamics by reducing drag and wind noise.


Strong, Durable Construction

Rhino-Rack Vortex H-shaped extrusion

The Vortex Aero crossbar is made of structural-grade anodized aluminum with an H-shaped internal extrusion. This extrusion strengthens the bar without adding a significant amount of weight. And the aluminum bar won't rust so you can leave it on your roof year-round.


The rack's durable, glass-reinforced nylon legs are designed to stand up to cargo loads and weather extremes. They're also UV treated to withstand long-term exposure to sunlight.


Custom Fit for Easy Installation

The roof rack arrives at your doorstep almost completely assembled. The crossbar is already mounted into the nylon legs. And the bar is pre-cut to match the width of your vehicle's roof, so you won't need to waste any time centering it. The few remaining assembly steps are straightforward and require only the vehicle-specific fit kit.


The vehicle-specific fit kit includes pads and clamps specifically designed to fit the contours of your roof. To install, simply attach the pivoting plates and rubberized pads to the bottom of each leg. Then secure the legs to your vehicle with the metal clamps. Decals inside the legs and a diagram in the instructions help you to orient the crossbar on your roof.


Once the crossbar is properly positioned, use the included Allen key to tighten it in place. The Allen key is designed to serve as a simple torque wrench. The curve in the blue plastic handle straightens when you've applied enough torque to each bolt.


Channel-Mounted and Clamp-On Accessories

The crossbar has a built-in C-channel so you can carry channel-mounted accessories such as bike racks, watersport carriers, and ski racks. The Vortex strips in the top channel come in 3 pieces, so they're easier to adjust than a single long, continuous strip. You can remove, trim, and re-insert the Vortex strips around the mounting hardware of your accessories to keep the crossbar channel capped and quiet. Replacement strips (sold separately) are also available if you remove your accessories or switch to clamp-on accessories.


You can also attach most clamp-on accessories to the bar, and the Vortex strips provide a shock-absorbing, no-slip cushion for any accessories that rest on it.


Built-In Security

Locking covers on each support leg let you secure accessories mounted in the crossbar top channel. These sturdy nylon covers give the rack a finished look and also help secure the rack to your roof. The cover locks are keyed alike, so a single key opens all locks.

Bought these and the basket at the same time about a year ago. Both products have been a great addition to the car. Currently running without the basket and the bars look really nice. Good fitment!



by:

Perfect fit, easy to follow instructions, and all the parts I needed to install. Totally worth the price.

I have a 2012 Camry hybrid and haul a 180 L windsurfing board. My rack came as promised but lacked one of the bolts needed. I made one phone call and the missing bolt was on my porch in 2 days.

There's virtually no wind noise, surprising since the car is very very quiet at baseline and I expected there to be some.

My car lacks tie down or towing attachments so I got some of the loop type that clamp under the hood and trunk.

I'm very pleased with construction, fit, ease of use, and customer support. I'd buy it again.



by:

Rhino rack does not stand behind their product. Beware had 3 broken and they won't replace the items. The end caps don't latch. Sent several pics per request for correction and the warranty dept just stopped responding.

Buyer beware, this is not a 1 off problem, the design is flawed. Cheap plastic is supposed to latch but just twist tight under the metal and after a half dozen or so adjustments the plastic is worn off.

Don't buy these.



by:

Great product and easy installation. Much better than the Thule factory racks that came with the leer truck topper rail system. Also like how they can unlatch! I hauled a fishing kayak and a Yakima rod coffin case all the way from Florida to North Dakota. Racks are strong.

I shopped online retailers namely Amazon and EBAY looking for the cross bar setup I would need for my 2012 Toyota Camry LE. My Camry has a naked roof. The whole experience was confusing. None of the needed components were combined together. I found each component listed separately but nothing to indicate they were the correct components for my car. Then ETRAILER.COM popped up in my search. I simply entered my car’s year, make, and model, and answered the question about the car roof (being naked with no factory installed cargo bars) and suddenly I had a list of the available cross bars for my vehicle with all the necessary components to install them. One or two clicks put the whole thing in my cart for purchase. ETRAILER .COM is your one stop shop. As a side note I purchased Yakima ski racks on sale to install on these cross bars. Another customer asked if these ski racks would fit his car and I explained yes they will with the appropriate cross bars. I sent him to “ETRAILER.COM” so he could get the correct setup. Pictures forthcoming.



by:

Durable looking product and has an easy install. On the roof of my van for the past year and still looking good. Holding out for 5 stars because I'm eating to see how it holds up in the desert sun after a few more years. Rhino-Rack is very hard to get information from regarding their products but etrailer had all the answers and gave me confidence with buying the product.



by:

Great addition to the bed track of my 2022 Hyundai Santa Cruz! I got these for my rhino rack rod holder since they made such noise on the oem roof rack. So happy I went with rhino rack. You can't beat the price and the quality is as good if not better than Thule or Yakima. Highly reccomend.



by:

Hi George from etrailer,
The rack is
awesome! Strong, firm hold and nice looking. When doing surveys, I put my ladders on the rack.
I highly recommend this etrailer.



by:

The rack is great. Well made with quality components, and compared to other brands, a very good value. I purchased the rack(s) to go on the top of a new Leer canopy with factory installed rails, supplied by Thule. The Rhine Rack cross bars are a great and less expensive alternative to other brands.
My only complaint is that the Thule rails/tracks require the removal of end caps and mounting bolts to install the crossbar mounts, and that requires breaking the watertight sealing installed at the factory. That’s not the fault of Rhino Rack. However, if they could develop a mounting system (ZwifLoc?) that did not require access to the track from an open end, it would be SO much better!



by:

Great fit, looks good even on my hail damaged Sierra, like the locking feature. Outer shipping box was trashed by carrier, but inner product boxes protected product. Like where it was made, quality strong product.

My Thule UpRide Roof bike rack mounted perfect in the T-Slots! Mounts easily and no issues in the Truxedo T-Slot rails on my Ford Ranger. Mounts perfect in Truxedo T-Slot rails.

very solid rack, it's not going anywhere. Several fasteners to affix to truck cap. Clean look for the First Gen Tacoma (1999).



by:

This is the second vehicle now that I've put the Rhino-Rack Aero Bar roof rack kit on. The instructions aren't too hard to follow with basic assembly knowledge and etrailer has a video tutorial for installation instruction which helped also. I didn't realize the allen wrench they provided also doubles as the security bolt bit you'll need when installing the brackets into the tracks so I just picked one up at the local hardware store. It's a great value for this product and I never had issues with my last kit and don't anticipate any with this one.



by:

My roof rack arrived today and I installed the rails.
The product is sturdy, and attractive.
I am very pleased with the quality.
Installation Instructions are clear and precise.
The most important detail is to install the tracks parallel to each other and square to the roof
I recommend taking time to get this step correct.
I had another rack at one point but this rhino rack is far superior.
I would recommend it highly.



by:

I feel like this could be a lot better. If the cross bars were about an inch longer it would fit perfectly but it’s kind of in the middle of I like it or I don’t. For the pice I feel like it should be better. Also it’s stretched so much the caps are almost impossible to put on.



by:

Customer service is excellent. My rhino rack was delayed in the mail, Sheila assured me it was shipped on time. After two weeks I reported it as missing mail with the post office, and 5 days later it arrived. The box was pretty beat up, and two of my legs to attach the crossbar were missing. Called customer service and they were more than helpful to get me the parts I’m missing. I’m not certain, but the hole in the box was not big enough for the package with the legs in it to fall through. The rack itself is well made. It took me about 4 hours to install the tracks by myself. Had a missing bolt , had to find another and grind it down to the length I needed. The box had three sets of directions, so after going through them I figured it out. The nuts that fasten the rail to the truck were a little too short to accommodate the big plastic housing that holds the nut, because my truck cap has a section of it with a double roof. So I extracted the nuts out of them and found suitable large washers and used a socket to install. Waiting on the two legs to finish the job, then install the kayak holders onto my bars!
Will send pics when job completed!

The Rhino Rack looks great and very secure. I really like the option of the locking devise for security measure.

This rack has proven to be everything I was hoping - easy to install, reliable, quiet, quick to mount and remove the cross bars (reduces wind noise and wear when not needed). I mounted it on a standard-height fiberglass Century topper on our '22 Chevy with standard bed and had no problems with fit, though I do wish I had made the bars parallel rather than go with the aesthetic option of constant distance from the edge of the topper. It's not a big deal, but that means I need to keep track of which bar goes where when reinstalling. Learn from my mistake! Also, 10 stars to eTrailer for fantastic service above and beyond my expectations. I had ordered from another local vendor weeks prior to a multi-week truck camping/kayaking trip and was dismayed when they notified me they were unable to fulfill my order in time the week of the trip. I ordered from eTrailer very last-minute and received the rack on time. eTrailer truly saved the day. I will be ordering from them whenever possible in the future!

  • What Size Rhino-Rack Fairing is Recommended for 2018 Ford Focus with Rhino Rack Roof Rack
    The best length fairing will be the one that fits between the feet of the roof rack without going over. While your # RRRF2 may look too short at first glance with your Rhino Rack roof rack part # RR78MR it should still work really well. The next size up would most likely overhang past the feet and it's better to be a little short than too long.

    You would need to use the Allen key to remove the Rhino-Rack roof rack # RR78MR every time. But it isn't as difficult or time-consuming as it sounds.

    That one does not but I have a nearly identical set up with the custom fit clamps you'll need for your 2015 Ford Focus ST. It is the Rhino-Rack ROC25 Roof Rack for Naked Roofs item # RR78MR. This flush mounted roof rack kit has everything you need to install it on your Focus. It has a 165 lbs capacity. The crossbars are too short on the Rhino-Rack ROC25 Roof Rack item # RR73QJ you were looking at and this kit doesn't have the right mounting clamps you need.
