Overview
Saris builds the Bones EX as a strap on trunk rack whose arc shaped legs hold two bikes at different heights so they do not clash. Injection molded arms and legs resist rust, and articulating rubber feet protect the paint.
Wide vehicle compatibility and a light frame make it an easy rack to move between cars, with no hitch needed. Step through and full suspension frames may need a separate Bike Beam to hang properly.
Who it's for
Riders who drive cars without hitches and want a rack they can fit quickly will find it practical. Owners of heavy bikes or step through frames should check the per bike limit and adapter needs first.
Pros and cons
- Light and easy to carry
- Fits many cars, even with spoilers
- Arc design separates bikes
- Rust free molded arms and legs
- Bike Beam may be needed for some frames
- Per bike weight limit is modest
- Rust and collision damage not covered
Performance notes
Stability comes from the strap tension and the rubber feet bearing on the trunk or hatch, so straps need checking before each drive. The arc legs stagger the bikes to stop handlebars and pedals from clashing. Frames without a horizontal top tube hang poorly without an adapter.
