Great rack BUT-- |
|
I've had one of these for several years and it works just fine. Be aware it will not carry a full suspension mountain bike without purchasing a Saris Bike Beam Trunk and Hitch Rack Crossbar Adapter for Dual Suspension and Women's Bicycle Frames that spans between the seat tube and stem. There's not enough room between the sloping top tube and rear shock. |

Works as advertised |
It took an "ah-ha" moment to get it right, but the bike rack works very well, is really stable, and handles 2 bikes with ease. I have a little Saturn sedan, and although I bought the hatch huggers, I didn't need them.
Getting the bike on and off take about 4 seconds, and putting the bike rack on takes less than a minute once you've figured it out. Highly recommended. |

Pretty Cool |
|
Works well - I have one bike. I did not give it 5 stars because eventually, there is some "slippage" that reduces the secure fit. Not sure how to fix this. |

Excellent purchase |

I'll admit, the first time you unbox this and hook it up to your vehicle, it can be a little frustrating getting everything configured correctly. However, the second time will go much faster assuming you mark the correct settings with the supplied stickers (I'd also suggest marking with a permanent marker as the stickers can rub off after extended use), and before long, it will be second nature. I really enjoy this bike rack, and several friends have purchased the same one after seeing how easy mine is to use. Not sure? Drive to your local bike dealer and see what racks are on the cars in the employee lot. My guess is you'll see quite a few of these! |

Solid choice, Excellent Customer Service |
After extensive research of reviews, I purchased a Saris Bones 2 for our car . The Saris rack is versatile and well-designed. It even has stickers where you can record your optimal angle (of the rack) so you can have a quick setup in future uses.
It can be hard to get the bikes on and the bike-securing straps are hard to pull, but you get used to it. I called to ask for a longer stabilizer strap which they are sending for free. Their customer service is top notch. |
