What Roof Rack/Bike Rack Do I need for My Bare-Roof 2013 Toyota Camry?
Question:
Hello, Im wanting to get the necessary parts to put a bike rack on the roof of my vehicle. Im a little confused as to what parts I need exactly. My vehicle doesnt have anything on the roof. So does that mean I need to get the following items? 1 cross bars 2 mounting points/rack legs such as this item #DK321 3 the bike rack itself I cant tell exactly if items such as #DK321 have both the crossbar and the mounting points. Any advice will be greatly appreciated.

For a complete roof rack system for your 2013 Toyota Camry with a bare roof, you will need the following parts:
- Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars - Aluminum - Black - 46" Long - Qty 2 # RRVA118B-2
- Rhino-Rack 2500 Series Legs for Vortex Aero Crossbars - Naked Roofs or Fixed Mounting Points - Qty 4 # RRRLKVA
- Custom DK Fit Kit for 4 Rhino-Rack 2500 Series Roof Rack Legs - Naked Roof # DK321 (these are separate from the the other two parts)
As far as the bike rack, I recommend the Rhino-Rack Hybrid Roof Bike Rack - Wheel Mount - Clamp On - Aluminum # RRRBC050. The Hybrid rack involves no contact with your bike frame and doesn't require wheel removal to fasten to the rack. The rack fits bikes with 20" - 29" diameter wheels and works with skinny road tires or up to 2.7" wide mountain bike tires. If you need a rack that fits wider tires, I recommend the Rhino-Rack Hybrid Roof Bike Rack for Fat Bikes - Wheel Mount - Clamp On - Aluminum # RRRBC050-FB. The fat-bike model will carry bikes with tire widths up to 5 inches wide.
There is enough room on your crossbars to fit two racks for transporting two bikes as long as the combined weight of the bikes do not exceed the recommended roof weight of your 2013 Camry or the single weight capacity of 45 pounds per each rack.
