2013 Mercedes-Benz C-Class - Saris Bones EX 2 Bike Rack - Adjustable Arms - Trunk Mount
- 2 Bikes
- Adjustable Arms
- Saris
- Hanging Rack
- 6 Straps
- Frame Mount - Anti-Sway
- Fits Most Factory Spoilers
This 2-bike trunk rack has an arched dog leg that fits over the spoiler on most sedans, hatchbacks, and SUVs. You can fold the adjustable arms down for parking in tight spaces, and you can quickly remove the rack and store it in your trunk or garage.
Features:
- Trunk-mounted rack lets you carry 2 bikes on the back of your vehicle
- Expanded, arched base with dog leg fits over most sedan, hatchback, and SUV spoilers
- Arched arms separate bikes on different levels to help prevent bike-to-bike contact
- Ratcheting anti-sway straps secure your bikes' top tubes and seat tubes to the rack
- 6 Cam-buckle straps with rubber clips anchor the rack to your trunk or hatch
- Integrated tie-downs prevent excess straps from flapping
- Injection-molded plastic arms and legs are durable and rustproof
- Articulated rubber feet and vinyl-coated hooks protect your trunk from scratches and scuffs
- Made in the USA
Specs:
- Carrying capacity: 2 bicycles
- Weight capacity: 35 lbs per bike
- Carrier weight: 11 lbs
- Limited lifetime warranty
Note: This dual-arm rack reduces the need for a bike frame adapter bar (sold separately) to mount a children's, women's, or alternative frame bicycle. However, to mount certain bikes or to keep your bike level on the rack, a bike adapter bar may be required. Most step-through bikes, dual-suspension bikes, and small children's bikes will require a bike adapter bar.

Best bike rack for my Mitsubishi Outlander. Bikes are secure and it’s easy to use.

So far, so good. The confirmed fitting for my car was excellent as described by etrailer. The test will be an upcoming 3 hour road trip.

The Saros Bones EX 2 bike rack has been a good fit for a hatchback, allowing me to securely carry one e-bike or two non-e-bikes from my home to the cycling paved path (about 5 miles away in city traffic). I recommend this rack if you need to attach to a hatchback car and have a good distance to bring the bike. Mike in Providence, RI

I received my Saris Bones EX 2 trunk mounted bike rack. I was surprised that it came with no instruction manual. Through trial and error, I was able to figure out how to install. Product description said it was guaranteed to fit my model of automobile and it does. Online [online] says extra strap length can be hidden in the main tube and covered with the end caps. I think I did it right. (Instructions would have been nice.)
Having just received, I have not yet traveled with a bike on the rack. The 6-point tie down offers a snug fit. My wife and I use and travel with a tandem bicycle. Even though it is longer than the normal bicycle, I am not expecting any issues. If I do, I’ll submit another review.
by: Khairil11/03/2022
Great customer service. I first tried sourcing this purchase from [online]. They cancelled my order indicating they can't acquire the item from the manufacturer. eTrailer managed instead to fulfill my request. Very grateful for your effort. Thank you.

This bike rack is perfect for our Kia carnival minivan. Very sturdy and does not put pressure on the back of the van.
by: Paula01/08/2021
Great product so far! Easy to install and adjust. A little tricky to load 2 large handlebar mountain bikes and a third smaller bike, but we just turned them sideways with the front wheels taken off. We had racks on bikes which were probably the impediment. We got them on though! Love how it folds up easy for quick storage. Works great on 2014 Subaru Outback.
by: Tyson05/01/2021
Fits great on my Lexus NX but I’m worried about the bottom legs. Instructions doesn’t say if the bottom feet should be on the rear bumper or trunklid. I placed it on the top rear bumper but because of the limited space, the feet is not fully set in. I didn’t place it on the trunklid because I didn’t feel like the trunklid was strong enough to withhold the rack and bikes without possibly making a dent.
Also, I searched everywhere but my saris came missing one of the bottom hooks. Had to use side hooks instead because I had to get the huggers for the top and side straps.

Very efficient delivery and great customer service!
by: Jon01/06/2021
It works! Very versatile rack that works on a lot of different vehicles so it took a little fiddling to get right, but it work great on my 2021 Civic Sport Hatch. A little “plasticy” for my tastes but fit and finish appear to be satisfactory. etrailer as usual was spot on with shipping and customer service.
by: Antonio 11/20/2021
Good bike rack. Instructions weren't the best but you get used to doing it your own way. Hope it doesn't scratch the car too bad.
by: Jacqueline08/18/2021
I’m not happy with this purchase. I have 3 bikes and one of them is heavy. That’s the one I put on first and then the other two. Unfortunately one day I was driving with the bikes to the park which is a five minute drive the arms on the rack started to slip. I don’t use it to drive long distance afraid that it may fall off and cause an accident.
by: Greg08/02/2022
Great bike rack! I've had it for a year and it is still working well (for the most part). Easy to mount on the trunk of my Honda. The only issue (not etrailer.com's fault) is that one of the mounts broke on the first use. For warranty repair, I contacted the Saris company directly. Turns out one of my bikes was just less than a pound above the maximum weight rating (because I added a bike rack) and they refused to honor the warranty. Seems like there would be a margin of error in a rating like that (and bit of flexibility and understanding - the part broke because the mount was flawed). Superglue fixed the problem, but I was disappointed with Saris.
by: Jeffrey04/03/2022
The Saris Bones EX3 Bike Rack has worked very well for me, proving to be stable and secure in carrying two or three cycles. It's a bit challenging to install on my Subaru Forester due to the vehicles special need to capture the side retainers inside the vehicle, but once installed it may provide some security from theft.
by: Christopher 07/14/2023
Fits perfect on 2020 Chevy Equinox. Super easy install.
by: Dave B11/12/2020
It works great when I carry 2 bikes on the outside 2 racks. When I used the rack closest to the car to carry 3 bikes there were minor scratches.
by: Emily09/09/2021
Easy to adjust and install. Stays put and the bikes are secure. Doesn't really fit my VW Alltrak that well. The metal hooks for the side straps do not fit unless they are used on the rear window so I have to use the bottom straps on the sides and the sides on the bottom. Also not the best fit for mtn. bikes that don't have big open frames. Road bikes would be fine.

- Comparing Saris Bones VS Saris Bones EX For Use On a 2015 Kia SedanI recommend using the Saris Bones EX 2 Bike Rack # SAR83FR on your 2015 Kia Sedan. It has the 4 leg points versus only 3 on the Saris Bones 2 Bike Rack # SA805BL for added stability on your Kia. The upper legs have an expanded, arched base with dog leg which fits over most sedan, hatchback, and SUV spoilers. Both racks will allow for 2 bikes up to 35lbs each.
view full answer... - Can Rear Hatch of 2014 Lexus RX 350 be Opened With Saris Bones Trunk Bike RackAny trunk-mounted bike rack, including the Saris Bones # SAR83FR that fits your 2014 Lexus RX 350, will prevent the rear hatch from being opened with the bike rack on. In order to open you hatch it does need to be removed. Additionally, please note that if you plan on carrying kids' bikes or bikes with a step-through or alternative frame you will need to give the bikes a horizontal mounting point by using an adapter, the Bike Frame Adapter Bar # HRBA-PRO.
view full answer... - Recommended Trunk Rack For My 2015 Infiniti QX60My favorite trunk racks are by Saris. I have had practical experience transporting bikes with their racks on road trips between 1,500 to 3,700 miles. I never had any problems with my bikes or my vehicle getting scratched/damaged. The Saris trunk rack you attached to your question, Saris Bones EX 2 Bike Rack - Adjustable Arms - Trunk Mount, part # SAR83FR. fits your 2015 Infiniti QX60. I would add the 8' Cable Lock and Lock Loop for Saris Trunk Mounted Bike Racks, part # SAR52FR, because...

There are color options for the Ex3! Choose between black # SA803 or Red # SAR55FR. Check out the review video to learn more!
view full answer... - Recommended Trailer Hitch for a 2021 Honda CR-V Touring HybridWe do have plenty of hitches for your 2021 Honda CR-V touring hybrid. I recommend going with a class III hitch like the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # DT79MR. Reason being is almost all hitch accessories like the Thule Hitching Post Pro # TH934XTR are going to be made for a class III hitch, which has a 2" receiver. Even though this hitch is not recommended to be used on a Hybrid, this hitch can still be installed and used on your Hybrid.
view full answer... - Which Saris Trunk Rack Fits 2020 Mazda CX-30The only Saris trunk rack that fits your 2020 Mazda CX-30 is the Bones EX 3 part # SA803 which has an arm design that works around the spoiler. If you have a standard Bones carrier or any other Saris trunk rack it's not going to fit your vehicle.
view full answer... - Recommended Trunk Mount Bike Rack for 2023 Honda Accord SportYes, we do have trunk mounted bike racks for a 2023 Honda Accord Sport such as the Saris Bones EX 2 Bike Rack part # SAR83FR which is what I recommend. This is one of the most popular trunk mount racks and a great option. It's super lightweight at only 11 lbs so it's easy to get on/off. It's also made in the USA and because of the hinged design, works great on vehicles with spoilers.
view full answer... - Will the Saris Bones EX 2 Bike Rack Fit on a 2019 Cadillac XT4Yes, the Saris Bones EX 2 Bike Rack # SAR83FR is confirmed to fit your 2019 Cadillac XT4. The Saris Bones EX 2 Bike Rack # SAR83FR does not come with any integrated locks. So if you want to lock your bikes to your rack, you would want to pick up a cable lock like the 8' Cable Lock and Lock Loop for Saris Trunk Mounted Bike Racks # SAR52FR.

view full answer... - Recommended Simple Bike Rack for a 2020 Toyota Corolla Hauling a Beach CruiserBy far the easiest bike racks to use and install are going to be hitch mounted racks. They are the easiest because they just slide into your hitch and it's ready to roll. If you already have a hitch, the Thule Hitching Post Pro Bike Rack for 4 Bikes # TH934XTR is a great option. This rack has a maximum carrying capacity of up to 4 bikes weighing 35-lbs each, however since you likely have a class I (1-1/14") hitch you are limited to using it as a two bike carrier. If you don't have a hitch...

We have the Saris Bones # SA805BL for if you do not have a spoiler or the Saris Bones EX # SAR83FR made to fit if you have a spoiler. These are both good trunk racks that have anti-sway features to prevent bike-to-bike contact. They also both have adjustable arms to provide a better fit for a wider range of bikes.

If you want to stick with Thule you can use the OutWay # TH45JV or OutWay Platform # TH65JV. If you want an option at a lower price point you can use the Saris Bones EX # SAR83FR. These are the only trunk bike racks available for the hatchback model. If I were to choose one it would be the OutWay # TH45JV. I don't care for the high ride height of the bikes on the OutWay platform and don't think it is worth the additional cost....

Instead, I recommend the Yakima FullBack # Y02634 for your 2011 Audi Q5 and the Saris Bones EX # SAR83FR for your Lexus RX 350. These are fits for each of your cars and would be more cost effective than the suction- cup racks that will work on both, especially since the suction-cup racks only hold 1-bike each....

Unfortunately, we do not carry a hitch for your 2021 model. Instead, you could use a trunk bike rack line the Saris Bones EX 2 # SAR83FR or the Yakima Fullback # Y02633. You could also add a roof rack and carry cargo or bikes on your roof.

As for the Cable Lock # SAR52FR, the steel cable for the cable lock would make contact with the vehicle so I recommend wrapping it it tightly in some electrical tape to prevent any scratches.

I recommend the Saris Bones EX 2 Bike Rack - Adjustable Arms - Trunk Mount # SAR83FR. This rack was made to work with factory spoils like yours. I have linked a video review of it for you. If you will be carrying any bikes that do not have a top frame bar that goes straight across (like a typical...

I took a look at the owner's manual for your 2022 Lexus ES 350. Oftentimes, the availability of a trailer hitch is based upon whether you can use your vehicle to tow a trailer. Lexus does not recommend towing a trailer with your vehicle. As a result, there is not a trailer hitch for your vehicle. Unfortunately, without the trailer hitch, you will not be able to use a hitch mounted bike rack. You...

The straps on the Saris Bones EX 2 # SAR83FR will be just fine if they make contact with the roof extension on your 2022 Honda HR-V. The straps are anchored to the hatch, so most of the strain will be there instead of the roof extension. Even with the loaded weight of the bikes you will not be in danger of breaking anything. Saris actually shows an example in their instruction of this rack on a car with a similar roof extension which you can see below. The straps are designed...
