This bike rack is the best; adjustable straps securely attached bikes to a hatchback style car.

We have a subaru outback that is fairly new and doesn’t yet have a towing hitch installed so we settled for this. The rack itself fit well and was easy to strap on the back of the car. The rack itself seems very secure if installed correctly, HOWEVER the straps that are holding the bikes to the rack are absolute cheap garbage. While driving on the highway, my wife’s bike came loose from the rack. Luckily I pulled over quick enough that it didn’t fly off into traffic and cause an accident, however it did fly off into the shoulder of the highway behind us as I pulled over and was completely destroyed. The rack itself was still attached securely onto the back of the car, but the straps holding the bike in place had completely ripped off of the rack. We had two bikes on the rack, mine and my wife’s and hers was placed on second as it was the lightest, per the manufacturer instructions. The bikes were secure on our way to the destination, about 6 hours from our home and during a few trips we took while on vacation and there was no difference in how the bikes were placed on the rack for the trip home. We are now having to pay hundreds of dollars to replace a bike, which is great. This might be an okay rack for one bike, but apparently two bikes on a bike rack that’s being sold as capable of carrying two bikes is too much to ask for.

A great bike rack for two regular bikes. Maximum carrying weight for a rack like this is about 50 lbs. That's good enough for two regular Aluminum frame bikes. I was warned by my LBS that the rack is not designed to hold an electrical assist bike since most are in the 50 lbs or greater range. That said I am using mine with my electrical assist Mt. bike. This means of course I can only carry the one bike. I think the plastic clamps that hold the bike are good enough to hold the bike but to be on the safe side I bought some extra straps as a "fail safe". The straps that hold the rack to the car are pretty heavy duty so I can't see them breaking with just the one 50 lb. bike. WORD OF WARNING....If you have a hatch-back with a rear wiper BE SURE THE WIPER BLADES WILL CLEAR ANY PART OF THE RACK. If the wiper blade gets hung up on the rack it might cause an open circuit with your wiper...ON SOME CARS THIS CAN AND WILL DRAIN THE BATTERY WHILE THE CAR IS OFF. unless the blade can return to it's rest position your battery might be in danger. This cost me two batteries so I know what I'm talking about. I now have the rack positioned so the REAR blade clears and I've been fine every since.

This is my second Saris Bones. I was using my first one on a BMW 3 series back in the early 2000's. When I got back into biking I looked for this for a trunk mounted option on my Lexus. It has not disappointed me at all. The bikes stay firmly attached to my car, even over a few bumps. It is easy to hook up and store. I can even fold it an keep it in my trunk.

So this is my first use of a strap on bike rack. I’ve always had cars with receiver hitches but my current car does not! So after deciding the BMW tax was just too high to put on a receiver hitch I opted for the saris rack. It took a while to get the straps sorted out and to determine the optimal position for the rack but once mounted it is really stout and does not move at all. Overall a great rack for a hitchless car!

I might have gotten one that had some defects bc several things broke and I wasn't able to use it. But it fit fine on my car and it wasn't hard to install. The straps were strong and it was able to hold both on my bikes. I just didn't like that the bike straps broke so easily. I had to return

This rack fits our Honda Fit really well. It was a little challenging figuring out how to put it together out of the box but we did it. It is fairly simple to attach the rack to the car and once it is on it is very secure. It puts no pressure on the spoiler. The bikes fit nicely and the straps to attach the bikes are very easy to use and secure the bikes well. We did tighten the straps again once the bikes were on. We were up to 55mph with no sway or other issues. Overall I am very happy with the Saris Bones EX 2 bike rack.

I'm completely satisfied with this rack. I have a 2022 Mazda CX-30 and it attached perfectly and securely. I have an XL size mountain bike and it fits no problem, no rattle or sway.The only complaint is the caps holding the straps in the center tube could be designed better. They broke after the first use and didn't stay tight prior to breaking.Still happy with my purchase and would recommend to any friends.

The rack is a very good idea. If you don't have a trailer hook.The installation manual is not very cleae and I still have parts I dont know how to use. But it is very stable on the high way even on windy days

I was advised to buy the boot huggers for use with my mini. I found the rack easy to put on the car and it felt quite solid. With my one bike on it felt very stable. I had one trial ride of a mile around the block which was fine and then today I used it on its first proper run. I felt confident that the bike and rack were sitting solidly on the car. No problems at all.
