Saris Bones Car Trunk Bicycle Rack Carrier, Mounts 2-3 Bikes, Black - Durable, Rust-Free, Anti-Sway Straps, Fits Most Vehicles, Made in USA, Arc-Based Design, 100% Recyclable Materials

Far superior to other Halford models I've tried. I bought this in particular because it was able to work with both a BMW X3 and also a saloon (BMW 3 series). Set up is very straight forward and I think the design is quite neat - I like how all the cables go through the centre bar. Each bike has 3 of its own dedicated clips. I've only tried fitting two bikes on this but it was very easy to do. The only annoying thing is that the bikes cover the license plate so I've had to buy a spare plate - but that's going to be the case with most bike carriers.

Perfect fit for my BMW 318i E46. Really easy to assemble and extremely quick to take off/put on. Great product!

Only used it once so far and it feels like a very good build manufactured to a high standard. Assembly instructions are easy to follow, took me about 10 minutes to setup and another 10 minutes to mount three bikes. I've used these trunk mounted bike racks before so I am familiar with the setup. The straps are on the long side but you can always tie them or opt for the more expensive superbones model which hides the straps. There are some good videos on YouTube from the manufacturer. I used it on an A4 Saloon. I'm not convinced that you could actually use these on the road without a lighting board as it obstructs the reg plate. You will require a plug socket in the boot or a towbar which will add to the costs considerably. If you need to add the plug socket then you might as well go the whole hog and add the towbar too and just get a towbar mounted rack. I was quoted £150 for just a plug socket in boot plus £20 for lighting board from a local garage.

Great bike rack.. used it loads of times now and does a great job

Simple strong and easy to use

Firstly, the metal brackets on straps do not fit under the car tailgate, the metal is too thick and they are the wrong shape so that the tailgate cannot close when the brackets are placed. Secondly, even if we could have fitted the carrier, it transpires that the bikes would obscure the rear lights and license plate which is illegal in the UK. To send this back, we had to wait at home for the box to be picked up. The hours given were 11a.m. to 9p.m. We have to be present. They came at nearly 3 p.m. Then brought the box back as apparently there is some sticker they need and did not have. So, first you are sold an unusable product, and then you spend a day returning it. Not a repeatable shopping experience.

Best bike rack ever!

Quick and easy to install onto an Audi A6 saloon. I went for this due to other reviews and online presence. I would rather spend more on a bike rack which doesn’t damage my car. Comfortably fits 3 bikes. The only problem is interfering with the reversing camera which isn’t a fault of the great bike mount

I have used it for two 8-hour trips (both of these with heavier bikes - 2 old 80's roadbikes once, and 1 80's roadbike and a hybrid the 2nd time), a 2-hour trip (2 new light road bikes and a new light hybrid) and a 1-hour trip (2 new light roadbikes). And a couple of times for short jaunts elsewhere. I am really happy with this. After some experimenting, I found optimal placement for the inside bike pedal to not scratch the car and to be able to avoid the pedals of the 2nd bike - inside pedal zip-tied to the downward support - and to keep the pedals from rotating and potentially scratching the back of the car. After all of that, I know for sure that I trust this thing with my bikes. I recommend that you drive a couple of miles and then stop and re-tighten the straps that hold it on, as sometimes they jiggle a little bit loose after you start driving (not the manufacturer's fault - if anything, it would be my own fault at time of installation). I loaned this out since it can be easily adjusted to fit various cars. No paint or clear coat scratching (except where I incorrectly tied it to the car the first time - my fault - find places to attach the straps where they aren't laying against / touching / rubbing against the clear coat), but there could be a little bit of clear coat smudging where the rubber feet sit on the trunk (not scratches though). Nothing that is very noticeable though, you have to look for it. It is easy to attach and use, gets easier each time, although because of its flexibility and security there are several (necessary) steps to attaching it to the car and attaching the bikes to it. These steps are easy, though.

I've had these before and they are very reliable. This one worked for my suv, but just barely - wish I had noticed the other version first. The straps are more substantial than they used to be I believe - great for strapping down, but it can be a bit of work lifting the innermost bikes in past the first set of straps.

Excelente producto muy buena calidad , de lo mejor que he comprado comparado con los que hay actualmente.

Hält gut und wenn einnmal montiert unnd justiert einfache erneute Montage. Fahrräder halten gut, während der Fahrt wackelte nichts. Achtung: Max. Fahrradgewicht einhalten. Habe bei den ebikes akku, und Räder demontiert, dann gings.

Purchased this for a trip up the NSW coast on the back of a Citroen Grand Picasso. Worked perfectly - easy to put on, held firm, not a worry about it holding 2 adult bikes. Great buy.
