Will 20 inch and 26 inch Bikes Both Fit on Saris SuperClamp EX 4-Bike Rack
Question:
Hi, Super great info on your site! I have 4 bikes to carry and liked the lower profile and weight of the Saris Superclamp EX4. For now though, the bikes include a 26 inch Kids MTB and 20 inch Kids road/trail bike and two adult bikes. While the 26 inch will be good for a good number of years, I suspect we outgrow the 20 inch soon. Will I be able to carry the 20 inch bike for now with the other bikes on the Saris? Or am I better off with something larger like the Rocky Mounts Split Rail? Thanks for your help!

Yes, you can definitely fit all of your bikes on the Saris SuperClamp EX 4 Bike Platform Rack # SA4026F. This bike rack only requires you to have 3 points of contact to securely hold the bike, and the rack gives you 2 ratcheting hooks and a ratchet strap on both wheel cradles to accomplish this. This means that for scenarios where you have bikes with different frame designs you can actually just use the 2 straps and 1 hook on each bike so they can be offset enough for this to happen. I confirmed this with my contact at Saris.
I have also attached a review video of this bike rack for you to check out.
