The Saris Bones bike racks have been confirmed to fit your 2015 Audi A7. At this time these are the only trunk mount bike racks listed as a fit for this vehicle. I have attached a link to our fit guide page that shows all of the trunk mount bike racks that fit your vehicle.

The Saris Bones is available in a 2-bike version, # SA805BL, and a 3-bike version, # SA801BL. There are also several different colors available that can be seen on the fit guide page that I linked for you.

If you will be carrying any women's, children's or alternative frame bikes that lack the traditional horizontal top tube, I recommend picking up a bike adapter bar like part # SA3040. Bikes with small or angled frames can be difficult to load on a bike rack and they can create ground clearance issues. This adapter will allow you to mount those bikes easily and safely.

We do have a few trunk mount bike rack options for your 2024 Lexus ES 350, and out of our selection I recommend the Saris Bones EX 2 Bike Rack #SAR83FR. I like this rack over the other options because of the shape of the upper arms. They have a bend…

Answer 8

Yes, the information in the question you mentioned is accurate. This came directly from the folks at Saris. So for the Saris Bones 3 #SA803, if the Hatch Huggers #SA3035 are used in place of the side hooks they do not limit the carrying capacity.…
