Description
Saris’ Bones 3-Bike rack unites utilitarian strength and modern style. Crafted of incredibly strong, injection-molded plastic, the four arched leg mounts and two arched arms cradle your bikes on different levels to minimize unwanted handlebar and seat contact. Six highly adjustable straps, each equipped with soft, vinyl-coated hooks, hold the rack down, while the four legs have grippy rubber feet to provide a sturdy base that won't harm your vehicle's finish. Ratcheting, soft-touch, anti-sway straps ensure a tight grasp on your bikes. The Bones is made out of 100% recyclable, non-rusting parts and fits almost all vehicles—even those with spoilers. Plus, it folds fast for easy portability and storage.

Very sturdy traveling down the road. Three bikes are no problem to carry. Strong winds doesn't faze the bones. I received the carrier a couple months ago. Only problem the Saris Bones will not carry Carbon fiber bikes properly.

I purchased the Saris in December. Only used three times, but it's a solid bike carrier. Holds bikes stable in strong winds. I would recommend.

My most recent trip involved 100km/h cross winds through the Canadian Prairies, a bit of sway on the bikes but overall it held strong. I got this on sale for 130 bucks, but its easily worth 240!

Chose this bike rack when my wife and I got our bikes. [...] showed us how to set it up one time and it was simple! Easy to use, feels solid and doesn't let the bikes move when driving. I've never had a bike rack before .. but I saw a lot of folks had them on thier trunks at the bikeshop .. glad I took the plunge, my wife has also learned to set it up and uses it solo .. very solid and won't rust. Should have for many years ..

This is a great product. Feels like its build with quality. Very practical for a vehicle. I have tried other mounts and they dont even compare to this. Price is great. Overall, I highly suggest this product. Great value for the price.
