- 2 Bikes
- Adjustable Arms
- Hanging Rack
- Saris
- Frame Mount - Anti-Sway
- 6 Straps
- 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 Subaru Outback Wagon
- 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

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.

2020 Lexus NX 300h
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.

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.

Fits perfect on 2020 Chevy Equinox. Super easy install.
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: 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.
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.

- 2022 Honda CR-V Fitment with Saris Bones EX 2 Bike RackThe Saris Bones EX 2 Bike Rack # SAR83FR is a fit for all models of the 2022 Honda CR-V so it'll work great for your EXL Hybrid! Please note that your CR-V should have a function where the rear wiper turns on when you have the wipers active and you put your vehicle in reverse. Be sure to turn your wipers off prior to backing up so the rear wiper doesn't hit the bike rack and damage both of them. Also, if any of your bikes doesn't have a horizontal top tube you'll need to use an adapter...

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.
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... - Comparing Saris Bones and Bones EX For 2019 Toyota HighlanderI would recommend the Saris Bones EX part # SAR83FR for your 2019 Toyota Highlander as it is the most recent version of the Bones trunk rack. I like that it has two upper support arms and wider pads to help spread out the weight of the rack and bikes better compared to the Bones.

They had no trailer hitches that are confirmed to fit the PHEV model of the Mitsubishi Outlander. The best way to carry your bike racks on your 2015 Mitsubishi Outlander is to use a truck mounted bike rack. Our Saris Bones EX 2 Bike Rack - Adjustable Arms - Trunk Mount # SAR83FR is one of our most reliable and dependable racks. If...
view full answer... - 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... - 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...
view full answer... - Will The Sairs Bones EX2 Damage The Roof Extension On A 2022 Honda HR-VHello Kevin. 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...

It also works well with your spoiler. Check out the attached video to see all of its great features.
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... - Trailer Hitch that Fits 2020 Nissan Versa Model SUnfortunately, we do not have a hitch to fit your 2020 Nissan Versa at this time. If you need it to carry bikes, you could use a trunk bike carrier like the Saris Bones EX 2 # SAR83FR or the Yakima FullBack # Y02633. You could also use roof racks to carry bikes or cargo.
view full answer... - Recommended Trunk Mount 2-Bike Rack for 2011 Audi Q5 and Lexus RX350The only racks to fit your 2011 Audi Q6 and Lexus RX350 are the suction cup types like the # 298-BH1302 or the # 298-BK1910-AB these only carry one bike each and are quite costly. 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....
view full answer... - Will The Saris Bones EX 2 Bike Rack Interfere With A 2004 Mazda 6 Spoiler The Saris Bones EX 2 Bike Rack # SAR83FR arms adjust to fit with factory spoilers so as long as your 2004 Mazda 6 has a factory spoiler you shouldn't have a problem.
view full answer... - What Trunk Bike Rack Do You Recommend for My 2019 Honda Civic Si Sedan?If you are trying to decide between the Yakima Fullback # Y02634 (2-bike version) / # Y02633 (3-bike version) and the Saris Bones EX # SAR83FR (2-bike version) / # SA803 (3-bike version), the Saris Bones EX models will unfortunately not fit your 2019 Honda Civic SI Sedan. With that limitation, that leaves the Yakima Fullback models (which I confirmed as a fit with Yakima). The Fullback is a great option because it comes with a locking cable (unlike the Bones EX). This locking cable provides...

For the straps you'll want to position them over the spoiler so the rack can sit a bit higher up to clear the spoiler. This rack also has a carrying capacity of 2-bikes that weigh 35-lbs each for a total of 70-lbs. I've also put in a review video for you to check out as well.
view full answer... - How To Use Saris Bones EX 2 Bike Rack With Only One BikeIn regards to the Saris Bones EX 2 Bike Rack part # SAR83FR, if you're only carrying one bike it would need to be placed in the cradles closest to the vehicle. In regards to use with a spoiler, it doesn't actually put pressure on the spoiler although the straps may still come into contact. There will be no issues with spoiler use if factory and listed as a confirmed fit.

Like all rear window mounted bike racks, this one has a 35 lbs capacity per bike. This bike rack weighs only 11 lbs so you won't have to worry about it damaging the rear of your car. It has adjustable arms and uses six straps to secure the rack to your Mazda. I have linked a couple of review videos below so you can see the functions and features of this bike rack demonstrated....
view full answer... - Recommended 2 Bike Carrier For a 2022 Honda CR-V Touring EditionI recommend the Saris Bones EX 2 Bike Rack # SAR83FR for carrying your 2 bikes on your 2022 Honda CR-V Touring. This rack was designed for rear hatches with the built in spoiler like your CR-V. The carrier only weighs 11lbs and is capable of supporting the weight of 2 bikes up to 35lbs each. Six straps with rubber coated hooks secure the rack to the rear hatch. For your women's bike a Bike Frame Adapter Bar # SA3040 will be needed if it doesn't have a straight top frame bar.

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... - Solution for Bike Rack on 2022 Cadillac CT5 When No Hitch is AvailableYou can use a trunk mounted bike rack with your 2022 Cadillac CT5 but unfortunately, there are no trailer hitches that fit. This is true for previous years for that vehicle as well. For a trunk mounted bike rack I recommend the Saris Bones EX 2 Bike Rack # SAR83FR.
view full answer... - Is There a Lock for the Saris Bones EX 2 Bike RackYes, we do offer locks for the Saris Bones EX 2 Bike Rack part # SAR83FR. The 8' Cable Lock and lock Loop for Saris Trunk Mounted Bike Racks part # SAR52FR is a two in one. It locks the bikes to the rack and then the rack to the vehicle. The rack to vehicle lock is just a loop that closes in the hatch and prevents the rack from being removed even with the straps off. The bike to rack lock is a more traditional steel cable with metal lock core.
view full answer... - Does Saris Bones EX Trunk Bike Rack Fit 2022 Honda CR-V Hybrid TouringSorry for the confusion but the Saris Bones EX part # SAR83FR does fit all models of the 2022 Honda CR-V including the Hybrid Touring AWD.
