2010 Subaru Outback Wagon - 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
- Locks Not Included
- Non-Retractable
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.

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.

This bike rack is perfect for our Kia carnival minivan. Very sturdy and does not put pressure on the back of the van.
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.

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.

- Will Saris Bones Trunk Bike Rack Fit a 2012 Mazda 3 HatchbackThe Saris Bones 2 Bike Rack # SA805BL is a very popular option that fits your 2012 Mazda 3 hatchback as long as you don't have the rear spoiler. If you do have the spoiler then you need the Saris Bones EX 2 Bike Rack # SAR83FR instead. These have anti-sway straps but these essentially just limit the amount of bike movement so to avoid bike to vehicle and bike to bike contact you'll want to use the Protect-O-Pads # SA2060. I also recommend using the Stabilizer Straps # SA3033 to help keep...

Unfortunately, we do not currently offer a hitch for your 2011 Nissan Altima Coupe. (February 2023) We do however, trunk mounted bike racks like the Saris Bones EX 2 # SAR83FR or the Yakima HangOut 3 # Y02638. I included videos of both racks for you to see how they work.

For a great fit between both vehicles, I recommend the Saris Bones EX 2 Bike Rack - Adjustable Arms - Trunk Mount # SAR83FR. It comes with a 35-pound maximum per-bike weight capacity and is 100% made in the U.S.A. The Bones EX 2 fits all submodels of Elantra (Coupe, Sedan, GT hatchback) as well as your 2021 Mazda CX-5. You will...

view full answer... - Will Thule Passage Trunk Bike Rack Fit 2021 Honda Civic EX HatchbackThe Thule Passage # TH910XT will only fit the 2021 Civic Sedan. 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....
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...
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... - Trailer Hitch Fit for 2020 Kia Soul 1.6L TurboBoth Curt and Draw-Tite specifically list the 1.6L Turbo model Soul as fit exclusions for their # DT25GR and # C67FR hitches as the rear of the vehicle is different enough on the Turbo model that it prevents the hitch from fitting. If you were wanting the hitch for carrying bikes, you could use a trunk mounted bike rack like the Saris Bones EX # SAR83FR for a 2-bike model or # SA803 for a 3-bike model.

In order to install the Saris Bones EX 2 # SAR83FR properly on your vehicle, I confirmed with Saris that you need the hatch huggers # SA3035 to replace the upper straps. For the lower straps, you can either use the hatch huggers # SA3035 or place the hooks inside the trunk. I went ahead and attached a video that shows how the hatch huggers work.

This trunk mount bike rack will allow you to haul around 2 bikes up to 35lbs each. It has arched arms and ratcheting anti-sway straps to secure the bikes and prevent contact. The six cam-buckle straps and adjustable legs make for easy installation or removal of the rack. This rack is always offered in a three bike setup with part # SA803.

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...

It cannot be used on the 1.6L Turbo option. As long as you do not have that, you are good to go and the Kuat Transfer V2 Bike Rack for 1 Bike # KU64FR is a very nice option for carrying a single bike. You will have no problems using these together. However, if you do have the 1.6L Turbo option, you will either need to go with a trunk mount bike rack, like the Saris Bones EX 2 Bike Rack # SAR83FR,...

I confirmed with Saris that the Saris Bones EX 2 Bike Rack # SAR83FR will definitely fit on your 2020 Subaru Outback Wagon. If you have a women's-style bike, children's bikes, or bikes with step-thru frames, I recommend the Swagman Deluxe Bike Frame Adapter Bar # 64005. The adapter bar will give your bikes the straight horizontal plane that is required for you to mount your bikes to the Bones EX 2. If you want to add theft-deterrence measures for your bikes and the rack itself, I...

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.

view full answer... - Best Way To Carry Bikes On a 2022 Honda Accord Without Trailer HitchThe best option to carry bikes without a hitch is on the rear of the vehicle with a truck mounted rack for which I recommend the Saris Bones EX 2 Bike Rack part # SAR83FR. This rack installs easily using rubber coated hooks which latch onto the truck lid. It has anti-sway cradles to keep the bikes in place as well. The only downside to a trunk mounted rack as opposed to hitch mounted is that you can't open the truck with the rack in place but you also don't have to install a hitch so they...
