Saris: This rack un-nerved me!

Familiarity:
I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions

Saris was my first choice. Loved the design. It was light and strong plastic. BUT I felt the company fell off it's mark by having cheap flimsy straps! I feel the straps was one component that shouldn't get Cheap on! Or anything for that matter. My other grip was that the hooks that lash onto the side of the SUV didn't sink into the slot of the hatchback! Then more straps problems... all the straps funneled through the center of the hub...I'm fine with that BUT the EDGES of this hub are sharp! Not what I want pulling and cutting into the already cheap webbing straps non the less holding 3 bikes! 😳 It definitely innerved me! And All this talk about buying American? What a joke! I returned it. I'm going for the more piece of mind Yakima or Thule car hitch which isn't that much more in cost!

Easy on/off, holds bikes securely, superior qualit

Excellent quality, easy to put on and take off. Very sturdy and securely held our bikes for several hours in each direction traveling to centuries. Celebration red is a gorgeous color and highly visible (safety) to vehicles traveling behind you. Fast shipping, very glad we bought this one over others. Superior quality.

The One and Only bike rack you'll ever need!

I purchased my Saris Bones 3-Bike Car rack approximately 28 years ago and it is still going strong. I usually only carry one bike but would not hesitate to add a second bike. Due to its age, I probably wouldn't add a third one considering that time and weather may have weakened some of non-metal parts. It's been an amazing bike rack...highly recommend it! My daughter purchased one after seeing how well mine has performed!

The Best Bike Rack...

Best bike rack I have ever owned. The design, materials, and functionality are top notch. An excellent value. There is really not much else to say.

Trouble using with bikesock

Do not use with bikesock (or any bike cover). Bike blew off the rack on highway. Broke away from straps and almost lost 2 bikes.

Good product - Instructions Useless!!

This is my second Saris Rack... the first one was rock solid and amazing. But I needed one to fit my 2012 GMC Terrain. I bought a new Bones EX 3 this morning from the Trek store here in Clermont, FL. You would think someone with 30 years experience with bikes & racks would be able to fit it in less than an hour. The way the straps go in / out of the main tube are unclear in the miniscule instructions. This should be an intuitive process. Once all the adjustments were done, it worked very well. The system Saris uses to secure the bike is infinitely easier than any Yakima product.

Very rugged and sturdy!

I have only used it a couple of times, but it worked really well. I found the directions very difficult and had to go on You Tube to figure it out.
