This sturdy bike rack is easy to use, stylish, and functional September 7, 2006

The Saris Bones 805 2-bike trunk mount rack stylishly mounts on a cars trunk, securely holding two bikes. Made of curved adjustable plastic arms and legs, this rack will mount over most spoilers and holds each bike at slightly different levels. When not in use, the rack will fold up into a compact block.
To secure the rack to the auto's trunk, position the arms and legs, and place the largest clip hooked around the top of the trunk. The medium sized clips hook along the sides and the smallest clips hook on the bottom of the trunk. Once in place tighten the straps to secure.
Now the rack is ready for the bikes. Each bike is secured to the rack with three quick fasten ratcheting straps. One strap wraps around the seat tube while the other two secure the top tube. The next bike goes on in the opposite direction with the same fastening straps in reverse. Women's bikes may require a crossbar adapter for proper fastening.
This sturdy bike rack is easy to use, stylish, and functional. Saris is so confident in the quality of this system, that they provide a lifetime warranty.
PROS:
Simple to install and remove
Designed for all weather use
Lifetime warranty
CONS:
Front tire is permitted limited movement
Does not secure to the auto in a way that can deter theft

I did a lot of looking before purchasing this rack. I ended up buying it at a local bike shop because I wanted to see it first. I have a Honda Accord coupe - 2 door - and the fit is just right for the car. We also have a van and the abiltiy to work on both is very handy. Setup is easy and the bikes are held firmly. I had used another rack previously that was loaned by a friend. It was very unstable compared to the Saris Bones.....
Excellent Rack November 2, 2006

I have had a few different racks in the same price range. This is by far the BEST rack I have ever bought. The first time I used it, I traveled 600 miles- the bike didn't move. It's not hard to set up and really grips the bike - I highly recommend it.
 Solid, except for one thing April 23, 2007

I have one and use it. Overall, I can only say it is beautiful, like they say. That is not really what I want, though. I want easy and functional. It is also both. It is solid and sturdy. The reason I don't give it 5 stars is, the screws that you use to turn and secure the main mounts are made of a kind of plastic. The result for me has been that one of them has already lost its threading (after three uses), and when I turn it, it just rotates, but doesn't connect and secure the mount as well as I would like. I would have expected a bit more from a bike rack that cost me over $ 100. It would have cost the company probably an extra $ 1 or less to make those screws some kind of metal. Thus, I give it four stars.
Great rack July 18, 2007

Bought it two weeks ago for a vacation. Carried two Trek hybrids for six hours on side roads and Interstate, plus ferry trips. Strong enough to hold the bikes solidly; slight flexing of the molded ABS plastic rack was not a problem, even though it caused us to wonder at first. I recommend you fasten the front tires and pedal cranks with rubber cords, to prevent unwanted spinning motion (these are not included). VERY EASY and FAST to install and remove, and the rack folds up into a very small space, only about 18" x 5" x 15". Well worth the price; only paid slightly more than a hundred at a local bike shop.
