What are the Differences Between the Malone Hanger and the Saris Bones?
Question:
Any advantage of using a Malone Hanger #MPG2139 vs. Saris Bones #SA805BL on a 2020 Kia Soul? Actually I just ordered the Malone yesterday order #111351866 but wonder if I should switch?

Helpful Expert Reply:
One of the largest differences between the Malone Hanger # MPG2139 and the Saris Bones #SA805BL is that the Hanger can carry up to 3 bikes versus the 2 bike capacity of the bones. The Hanger also includes CAM buckle straps that are better quality than the nylon straps on the Bones. Lastly, the Hanger also comes with a security cable lock that is missing from the Bones.
In light of these differences, you made a great choice with choosing the Hanger over the Bones for a bike rack for your 2020 Kia Soul.
