2018 Audi Q3 - Saris Bones EX 2 Bike Rack - Adjustable Arms - Trunk Mount

  • 2 Bikes
  • Adjustable Arms
  • Hanging Rack
  • Saris
  • Frame Mount - Anti-Sway
  • 6 Straps
  • Fits Most Factory Spoilers

This 2-bike trunk rack has an arched dog leg that fits over the spoiler on most sedans, hatchbacks, and SUVs. You can fold the adjustable arms down for parking in tight spaces, and you can quickly remove the rack and store it in your trunk or garage.


Features:

  • Trunk-mounted rack lets you carry 2 bikes on the back of your vehicle
  • Expanded, arched base with dog leg fits over most sedan, hatchback, and SUV spoilers
  • Arched arms separate bikes on different levels to help prevent bike-to-bike contact
  • Ratcheting anti-sway straps secure your bikes' top tubes and seat tubes to the rack
  • 6 Cam-buckle straps with rubber clips anchor the rack to your trunk or hatch
    • Integrated tie-downs prevent excess straps from flapping
  • Injection-molded plastic arms and legs are durable and rustproof
  • Articulated rubber feet and vinyl-coated hooks protect your trunk from scratches and scuffs
  • Made in the USA


Specs:

  • Carrying capacity: 2 bicycles
  • Weight capacity: 35 lbs per bike
  • Carrier weight: 11 lbs
  • Limited lifetime warranty


Note: This dual-arm rack reduces the need for a bike frame adapter bar (sold separately) to mount a children's, women's, or alternative frame bicycle. However, to mount certain bikes or to keep your bike level on the rack, a bike adapter bar may be required. Most step-through bikes, dual-suspension bikes, and small children's bikes will require a bike adapter bar.

Best bike rack for my Mitsubishi Outlander. Bikes are secure and it’s easy to use.



by:

So far, so good. The confirmed fitting for my car was excellent as described by etrailer. The test will be an upcoming 3 hour road trip.



by:

The Saros Bones EX 2 bike rack has been a good fit for a hatchback, allowing me to securely carry one e-bike or two non-e-bikes from my home to the cycling paved path (about 5 miles away in city traffic). I recommend this rack if you need to attach to a hatchback car and have a good distance to bring the bike. Mike in Providence, RI

Great customer service. I first tried sourcing this purchase from [online]. They cancelled my order indicating they can't acquire the item from the manufacturer. eTrailer managed instead to fulfill my request. Very grateful for your effort. Thank you.

2020 Lexus NX 300h

I received my Saris Bones EX 2 trunk mounted bike rack. I was surprised that it came with no instruction manual. Through trial and error, I was able to figure out how to install. Product description said it was guaranteed to fit my model of automobile and it does. Online [online] says extra strap length can be hidden in the main tube and covered with the end caps. I think I did it right. (Instructions would have been nice.)

Having just received, I have not yet traveled with a bike on the rack. The 6-point tie down offers a snug fit. My wife and I use and travel with a tandem bicycle. Even though it is longer than the normal bicycle, I am not expecting any issues. If I do, I’ll submit another review.

This bike rack is perfect for our Kia carnival minivan. Very sturdy and does not put pressure on the back of the van.



by:

Great product so far! Easy to install and adjust. A little tricky to load 2 large handlebar mountain bikes and a third smaller bike, but we just turned them sideways with the front wheels taken off. We had racks on bikes which were probably the impediment. We got them on though! Love how it folds up easy for quick storage. Works great on 2014 Subaru Outback.



by:

Fits great on my Lexus NX but I’m worried about the bottom legs. Instructions doesn’t say if the bottom feet should be on the rear bumper or trunklid. I placed it on the top rear bumper but because of the limited space, the feet is not fully set in. I didn’t place it on the trunklid because I didn’t feel like the trunklid was strong enough to withhold the rack and bikes without possibly making a dent.

Also, I searched everywhere but my saris came missing one of the bottom hooks. Had to use side hooks instead because I had to get the huggers for the top and side straps.



by:

Very efficient delivery and great customer service!



by:

It works! Very versatile rack that works on a lot of different vehicles so it took a little fiddling to get right, but it work great on my 2021 Civic Sport Hatch. A little “plasticy” for my tastes but fit and finish appear to be satisfactory. etrailer as usual was spot on with shipping and customer service.



by:

Good bike rack. Instructions weren't the best but you get used to doing it your own way. Hope it doesn't scratch the car too bad.



by:

Great bike rack! I've had it for a year and it is still working well (for the most part). Easy to mount on the trunk of my Honda. The only issue (not etrailer.com's fault) is that one of the mounts broke on the first use. For warranty repair, I contacted the Saris company directly. Turns out one of my bikes was just less than a pound above the maximum weight rating (because I added a bike rack) and they refused to honor the warranty. Seems like there would be a margin of error in a rating like that (and bit of flexibility and understanding - the part broke because the mount was flawed). Superglue fixed the problem, but I was disappointed with Saris.



by:

I’m not happy with this purchase. I have 3 bikes and one of them is heavy. That’s the one I put on first and then the other two. Unfortunately one day I was driving with the bikes to the park which is a five minute drive the arms on the rack started to slip. I don’t use it to drive long distance afraid that it may fall off and cause an accident.



by:

Fits perfect on 2020 Chevy Equinox. Super easy install.



by:

The Saris Bones EX3 Bike Rack has worked very well for me, proving to be stable and secure in carrying two or three cycles. It's a bit challenging to install on my Subaru Forester due to the vehicles special need to capture the side retainers inside the vehicle, but once installed it may provide some security from theft.



by:

Easy to adjust and install. Stays put and the bikes are secure. Doesn't really fit my VW Alltrak that well. The metal hooks for the side straps do not fit unless they are used on the rear window so I have to use the bottom straps on the sides and the sides on the bottom. Also not the best fit for mtn. bikes that don't have big open frames. Road bikes would be fine.

Works perfectly with a 2018 Toyota High lander

  • Recommended Trunk Rack For My 2015 Infiniti QX60
    My favorite trunk racks are by Saris. I have had practical experience transporting bikes with their racks on road trips between 1,500 to 3,700 miles. I never had any problems with my bikes or my vehicle getting scratched/damaged. The Saris trunk rack you attached to your question, Saris Bones EX 2 Bike Rack - Adjustable Arms - Trunk Mount, part # SAR83FR. fits your 2015 Infiniti QX60. I would add the 8' Cable Lock and Lock Loop for Saris Trunk Mounted Bike Racks, part # SAR52FR, because...

  • Trailer Hitch and Bike Rack Recommendation for 2010 Nissan Altima Coupe
    We do not currently(2/2023) have a hitch for your 2010 Nissan Altima coupe. The Draw Tite hitch part # 24879 only fits for the Sedan model of the Nissan Altima. We do have another way for you to carry bikes on your 2010 Nissan Altima Coupe. You could use a trunk bike rack like the Saris Bones EX 2 # SAR83FR. Check out the attached video to see how the Saris works.

  • Comparing Saris Bones VS Saris Bones EX For Use On a 2015 Kia Sedan
    I recommend using the Saris Bones EX 2 Bike Rack # SAR83FR on your 2015 Kia Sedan. It has the 4 leg points versus only 3 on the Saris Bones 2 Bike Rack # SA805BL for added stability on your Kia. The upper legs have an expanded, arched base with dog leg which fits over most sedan, hatchback, and SUV spoilers. Both racks will allow for 2 bikes up to 35lbs each.

  • How to Install Straps on the Saris Bones EX 2 # SAR83FR on a 2019 Infiniti QX60
    Looking at the vehicle you entered in the fitguide, it looks like you have a 2019 Infiniti QX60. In order to install the Saris Bones EX 2 # SAR83FR properly on your vehicle, I confirmed with Saris that you need the hatch huggers # SA3035 to replace the upper straps. For the lower straps, you can either use the hatch huggers # SA3035 or place the hooks inside the trunk. I went ahead and attached a video that shows how the hatch huggers work.

  • Will the Saris Bones EX 2 Bike Rack Fit on a 2019 Cadillac XT4
    Yes, the Saris Bones EX 2 Bike Rack # SAR83FR is confirmed to fit your 2019 Cadillac XT4. The Saris Bones EX 2 Bike Rack # SAR83FR does not come with any integrated locks. So if you want to lock your bikes to your rack, you would want to pick up a cable lock like the 8' Cable Lock and Lock Loop for Saris Trunk Mounted Bike Racks # SAR52FR.

  • Trunk Mounted Bike Rack Recommendation for a 2005 Honda Civic LX 4 Door with Factory Spoiler
    For a trunk mounted bike carrier that will clear the spoiler on your 2005 Honda Civic Sedan I recommend the Saris Bones EX 2 # SAR83FR. This 2-bike trunk rack has an arched dog leg that fits over the spoiler on most sedans. I have included a link to a video that shows how it works. If you will be carrying any bikes that do not have a top frame bar that goes straight across (like a typical men's bike would) then I recommend using bike adapter bar # 64005. This will allow you to carry those...

What you'd have to instead is use a trunk mounted bike rack like the Saris Bones 2 Bike Rack # SA805BL. This bike rack will attach to the trunk of your new Lexus and will be able to carry up to 2 bikes that weigh 35-lbs each. This is going...

  • Will Saris Bones Trunk Bike Rack Fit a 2012 Mazda 3 Hatchback
    The Saris Bones 2 Bike Rack # SA805BL is a very popular option that fits your 2012 Mazda 3 hatchback as long as you don't have the rear spoiler. If you do have the spoiler then you need the Saris Bones EX 2 Bike Rack # SAR83FR instead. These have anti-sway straps but these essentially just limit the amount of bike movement so to avoid bike to vehicle and bike to bike contact you'll want to use the Protect-O-Pads # SA2060. I also recommend using the Stabilizer Straps # SA3033 to help keep...

  • Saris Bones vs. Saris Bones EX For 2020 Toyota Prius
    While both fit your 2020 Toyota Prius, the biggest differences between the Saris Bones 2 Bike Rack # SA805BL and Saris Bones EX 2 Bike Rack # SAR83FR is the latter has an added top anchor leg for more stable mounting, as well as strap management so you can store the straps into the rack's tube so they aren't flapping about while you are travelling. Due to that I'd go with the Bones EX # SAR83FR. The only thing to keep in mind is that with both racks you will need to replace the top and...
