5 out of 5 stars Saris Bones 801 3-bike Trunk Mount Rack   October 31, 2008
K. Tan (Los Angeles)
I have always been skeptical of trunk mounted bike racks until I saw a friend who had one. After using it for a couple of times, I decided to buy one myself. This is a great bike rack, easy to attach to your car, sturdy and rust resistant (plastic and Aluminum). It holds the bike very securely and will not cause any scratches when using multiple bikes. Great value as well!


5 out of 5 stars Good product. Fit well over the wing of my car.   October 20, 2008
Janine R. Springer (Rogers, Arkansas USA)
The bike rack fit very well over the wing of my car. We had a hard time finding one to fit and that was sturdy. This one was built very well and the bikes never moved while on the rack. br / br /Only problem: the newer aluminum bikes without a round frame are hard to maneuver onto the holder but other than that it worked great!

Joe Johnson
This is exactly what I wanted. It's easy to install on the car and holds 3 adult size bikes perfectly. This is an excellent product!


4 out of 5 stars One of the best trunk racks   July 23, 2008
Gary Woznicki
One of the best trunk racks on the market. Easy to take on and off, more secure than other trunk racks. The only downside I've found is that the straps that cinch around the bike can scratch the paint or rub off decals. Also, like any trunk rack, it does not lock.


4 out of 5 stars decent bike rack   July 14, 2008

This is a good bike rack, and for the most part solid. Not rock solid though. Here are some things I came across. First it said that it was not available for my 2000 Maxima SE if it has the spoiler. Almost all Maximas have the spoiler. I had already ordered it, so I contacted someone from where I bought it. They said its ok, you can open it and try it out first. I tried and it worked, it isn't exactly how I would have liked it, but close enough. Problem is the top straps are setup so the buckles lay on the spoiler (prob why they said no spoiler), so I wrapped some foam around them to solve the problem. Also, I noticed one of the thumb locks to tighten one of the arms isn't really tightening that well any more. Seems that if those were stainless the problem would be solved. I might have to try that, not exactly sure how it goes in, and what it goes into. Yes, you have to keep the feet clean or they will scratch. Also, I noticed the arms aren't very good at handling kids bikes. My boys both have 20", but the frames are a little non conventional, so they fit on the first and last positions, leaving the center one to give some room between them (the cranks get in the way of each other). It looks like we are not going to get all of our bikes on at one time, like I hoped. Also, for more "solidity" I bungee the front wheel of me RockHopper to the rack so it doesn't sway (and it still sways a little bit).
