cargo rack

Vehicle storage frame

A cargo rack is a frame mounted on a vehicle for carrying loads externally.

On bicycles, it attaches over the rear wheel for panniers or bundles.

On cars and trucks, it sits on the roof: We strapped the kayaks to the cargo rack.

Motorcycle and ATV versions typically mount behind the seat.
