Overview
Not a frame clamping rack, the Saris SuperClamp holds bikes with hooks over the top of both wheels, so frames and fenders stay untouched. It tilts for trunk access even when loaded and folds up when empty.
Holding up to four bikes with no frame contact suits mixed family fleets. The two outer slots have a much lower weight limit, so heavy e-bikes must go closest to the vehicle.
Who it's for
Made for households with road, mountain and e-bikes who travel together. Riders with three or four heavy e-bikes will exceed the outer slot limits.
Pros and cons
- Up to four bikes
- No frame contact
- Works with fenders
- Tilts when loaded
- Outer slots carry lighter bikes
- Heavy to lift alone
- Four-bike setup listed as option
Performance notes
Hooks press down on the top of each wheel, which holds bikes without touching paint or carbon frames. Weight limits differ by slot, so loading heavy bikes inside holds the rack within spec.
