A car rack consists of a set of bars mounted on the roof, hitch, or trunk of a car that secures bikes and skiing equipment for transportation. It acts as an anchor, which supports and securely holds many items, amplifying the luggage-carrying capacity of a car.These racks are specialized for mounting bikes, water sports equipment, skis, and boats. While some vehicles come with factory-installed car racks as standard, others can be purchased and fit with aftermarket parts. They can be fit either temporarily or permanently.
