Recommended Roof Rack for a 2023 Audi Q5 w/ Side Rails

Question:

I have a 2023 Audi Q5. It has the side rails running along the roof. I would like to add a set of crossbars to mount my bike rack. Is there a set that will work for my Q5 and give me enough capacity?

Yes, there is a set of crossbars that will fit the factory side rails of your 2023 Audi Q5. It mounts directly to the side rails and has more than enough capacity for a bike rack. You will want the roof rack by Rhino Rack and it includes the following parts:

Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars - Aluminum - Black - 49" Long - Qty 2 item # RRVA126B-2

Rhino-Rack SRB Legs for Vortex Aero Crossbars - Flush Factory Side Rails - Qty 4 item # RRSX030

This aero bar roof rack system has a 165 lbs capacity. The included locks will prevent theft. The rubberized vortex strips in the top channels dramatically reduce drag and wind noise.

I have linked a couple of pictures, along with a video, that will show you what this system will look like when installed on your Audi.
