Description
The arch is arguably the most important engineering feat in human history. One look at Saris’ Bones 2-Bike rack would make any ancient Roman proud. With three incredibly strong, arched leg mounts and two arched arms, you can rest assured that your bike is in solid hands. Six highly adjustable straps, each equipped with soft coated hooks, hold the rack down, while the three legs have grippy rubber feet to provide a sturdy base. Ratcheting 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.

The wide stance and side straps makes it very solid on bumps, turns, RR crossings etc. Has not marred either car it has been used on.

I use this rack on my Toyota corolla. Fits great, very stable so protects the car and bikes from scratches, lightweight and easy to install. I think it is the best bike rack.

I've owned several bike racks but have had the "Bones" for over 10 years now - it is simply the best. When properly attached the whole car will move if the center cog is pushed - the rack is very, very stable. I have transported my bike over 1500 miles several times and have never had to worry. Once attached the bike is very easy to load/unload. My only suggestion is to purchase inexpensive foam water pipe insulating tubes - when cut to size and put between the straps and the car surface you can avoid any kind of paint abrasion. I have total confidence in this rack.

With highly adjustable arm positions, I was able to fit multiple frame types ranging from my large Hardtail, and Full Suspension frames down to my wife's small 15" frame with a really low top tube. It works as good as advertised.
