Awesome Bike Rack August 25, 2010 Joseph L. Dunn (Powder Springs, GA United States) Adjusting and setting up the bike rack to fit my Mazda Miata was better than expected and the instructions were easy to follow. The rack is durable and looks good as well. I am going to have to purchase the additional item so that the wheels don't hit the back of the car etc... It would be beneficial to have integrated into the product a way to lock the rack so that there is some protection for the buyer.
Nice product but does not fit! August 9, 2010 M. Lavigne I purchased this item based on the positive reviews. I even went to the manufactures web site to see if it fits on a 2010 4 dr Camry. It does not! The new Camry has no clearance around the edges of the trunk lid for the strap clips, especially the bottom trunk lip. There is no where inside the trunk lid to attach the clips without tearing off the inside trunk lid cover, not acceptable. Even when I managed to get it on the trunk I could not close the trunk! The top clips will also put damaging stress on the rear glass since the rear glass goes under the top of the trunk lid by about an inch so the rear clips rest against the glass and when tightned could crack the glass. I don't think the manuafacture has tested this on all the vehicles they say they did. Also the metal adjusting clips will drag on the trunk lid and muck up the paint and it's unacceptable to wrap them in tape since you won't be able to adjust the tension without removing the tape. So much for quick attach and removal. I give a major thanks for Amazon to allow for full return shipping and refund without any hassle.
Great bike rack August 6, 2010 Teach281 I bought the Bones 2 because of the great reviews and now I know why! It's easy to set up, looks great and functions well. I recommend it, but make sure it will work with your vehicle first.
Not bad... August 4, 2010 Zachary P Matthews (the midwest) Since I drive a hatchback ('04 Pontiac Vibe) with room for a couple of bikes in the back, I don't have a ton of experience with bike racks. I recently moved 300 miles to another state, and I needed that space for boxes of stuff. I considered buying a roof-mount system, but the minimal amount of use didn't justify the rather high buy-in price for such systems. A relative loaned me a used (not sure what brand/model) rear-mount rack, but I was pretty apprehensive about the low quality and instability of the loaner rack. I picked the Saris for its blend of affordability and stability, and I was not disappointed. It weathered 260+ miles of interstate and a good chunk of bumpy city roads without any problems. I loaded a heavier, steel-framed Surly Cross Check nearest the vehicle and a lighter, aluminum & carbon Trek road bike on the outside.
Good rack but ..... August 2, 2010 T. Law (Foster City, CA USA) This is a very good rack once you get it set up. It takes a good 30-45 minutes to set up this rack initially. Once you've done it the first time, subsequent installation will only take 5-10 minutes. This rack doesn't come with anything, all accessories have to be purchased separately; for such an expensive rack, I thought it would have been nice for them to include some extra Velcro straps to tie down your fork or something.
The rack itself is very sturdy and I feel my bike is always secured. The rubber feet left no marks on my trunk lid or bumper. I only wish there was a way to lock the bike and rack together.
