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.


Saris Bones 3 Bike Carrier

The sleek and sturdy Bones lets you carry 3 bikes on the back of your sedan, hatchback, or van. It has arched dual arms that keep your bikes separated and an adjustable base. 6 Nylon anchor straps let you quickly remove it from your vehicle and store it in your trunk or garage.


Individually Adjustable Arched Arms

Saris Bones 3 Bike Carrier with adjustable arms

The Bones has dual injection-molded plastic arms that provide excellent support for your bikes. The adjustable arms accommodate women's, children's, and alternative frame bikes and keep them level on the rack. The arms are arched to allow your bikes to hang at different heights for optimal ground clearance and to prevent your handlebars and pedals from tangling.


Saris Bones 3 Bike Carrier with adjustable arms close up

The adjustable arms are mounted on a horizontal tube with grooves that allow the arms or legs to lock in place. To raise or lower an arm simply slide it to the center of the horizontal tube where it's smooth, rotate arm to desired position, and slide it back along the grooves to the edge of the rack.


Saris Bones EX 3 Bike Carrier with adjustable arms folded down

You can fold the arms down when the rack is not in use. This lets you free up space to park in your garage without removing the rack from your vehicle.


Ratcheting Anti-Sway Cradles

Saris Bones 3 Bike Carrier with adjustable armsSaris Bones 3 Bike Carrier with straps

Rubber, anti-sway cradles with ratcheting straps firmly grip your bike's frame at 3 points, helping to prevent front-to-back sway. This minimizes bike-to-bike and bike-to-car contact during transit.


Easy Installation


Saris Bones 2 Bike Carrier

The rack is easy to set up on your trunk or hatch. First, use the black turn knob at the end of each support leg to loosen them from their positions on the center bar. Then, slide them from their place on the integrated grooves out to the smooth section of the bar. Adjust the legs to a position that will best fit your trunk. Then slide them back over the grooves to hold them in your desired position. Use the black turn knob to tighten them down.

Place the lower padded legs above your bumper and the upper padded legs on your upper trunk or hatch. These pads protect your paint and are slip-resistant to help prevent the rack from shifting during transit.


Saris Bones 3 Bike Carrier with adjustable arms

6 Extra-long nylon straps anchor the rack in place on your trunk or hatch with vinyl-coated steel hooks. They are vinyl-coated to prevent scratches and scuffs and are individually labeled to indicate where each hook should be placed for a proper install. Each strap has an easy-to-use ladder-lock buckle to tighten it in place.

  • 3-Bike Trunk Mounted Bike Rack for 2019 Hyundai Sonata
    For your 2019 Hyundai Sonata we have the really nice 3 bike trunk rack from Yakima, the Fullback part # Y02633, but the Saris rack you mentioned does not fit your vehicle.

  • Trailer Hitch Receiver For 2014 Mercedes Benz E350 Coupe
    I reached out to the biggest suppliers of trailer hitches, and neither Curt or Cequent (the maker of draw-tite, reese and hidden hitch) have a fit for your 2014 Mercedes Benz E350 Coupe. So, unfortunately I don't have a trailer hitch receiver that is a confirmed fit for your vehicle. If I can help you with a trunk mounted bike rack or a roof rack to meet your needs, please let me know and I'd be happy to make a recommendation.

  • Recommended Trunk Mounted Bike Rack for 2018 Mercedes Benz GLC-Class
    Yes. The Saris Bones 3 Bike Carrier # SA801BL is a confirmed fit on the 2018 Mercedes-Benz GLC and is a great choice to carry up to 3 bikes on the back of your vehicle. Saris was the pioneer in the car mounted bike rack back in the 1970s and they really make a great product that also looks good, too.

  • Trunk Mounted Bike Rack that Fits 2016 Audi A3 E-Tron Hatchback
    We have trunk mounted bike racks that fit the e-tron versions of the 2016 Audi A3 like you have with the Yakima FullBack part # Y02634 but the Saris you mentioned does not fit so it would not be the way to go. I attached a picture of this rack installed on an E-tron just like yours for you to check out as well.

  • Recommended Trunk-Mount Bike Carrier For 2014 Subaru XV Crosstrek
    The Saris Bones RS 3 Bike Carrier, part # SA801BL may be a good fit for your 2014 Subaru XV Crosstrek if it has no spoiler. Since the # SA801BL does have 2 upper straps that attach to the seam between the roof and the rear hatch, they will not work if you do have a spoiler on your vehicle. All of the trunk mount bike carriers we offer have some style of strap or cable system to secure the bike racks to the vehicle. We do have a really nice bike rack I recommend. It is the Thule OutWay...

  • Recommended 2-Bike Rack for 2015 Ford Escape Titanium
    I do recommend going with a trailer hitch and hitch-mounted bike rack for your 2015 Ford Escape. A hitch-mounted rack is going to provide a much more stable and secure platform for your bikes. It will also push the bikes out and away from your vehicle, meaning there won't be any contact between the bikes/bike rack and your Ford Escape's finish, resulting in less of a chance of any vehicle damage. Starting with the trailer hitch, I recommend the Draw-Tite Class III Max Frame # 75758. This...

  • Trunk Mount Bike Rack Recommendation for a 2008 Dodge Charger RT
    Yes, I checked with Saris and the Bones bike rack part # SA801BL has been confirmed as a fit for your 2008 Dodge Charger RT. The arced arms of the rack will fit over the spoiler of your vehicle. If you plan on carrying any womens or alternative framed bikes without horizontal top tubes you may also be interested in purchasing a Swagman Easy-Out Women's and Alternative Frame Bike Adapter # 64005 to provide a horizontal top tube on your bikes to provide an attachment point. I attached a...

  • Recommended 3-Bike Rack for 2017 Mazda 3 Hatchback
    I have good news and bad news. The good news is that your Saris Bones 3 Bike Carrier # SA801BL is confirmed to fit your 2017 Mazda 3 Hatchback. The issue (bad news) is that in order for it to fit properly, the side hooks need to be replaced with # SA3035. Doing this will reduce the capacity of the carrier so that it can only safely carry 2 bikes. With this in mind, I instead recommend going with the Yakima FullBack 3 Bike Rack # Y02633, which is confirmed to fit your Mazda 3 Hatchback...

  • 3 Bike Trunk Rack Recommendation for a 2007 Honda Accord Sedan Factory Spoiler
    The Saris Bones 3 bike rack part # SA801BL has been confirmed as a fit for your 2007 Honda Accord with a factory spoiler and would be an excellent choice. The design of this rack allows it to install over the factory spoiler of your vehicle and would work well. I attached a review video for this rack for you to check out as well. The Hollywood Racks Expedition part # HRF6-2 only weighs 17 lbs so it's not crazy heavy. The Saris is 12 lbs. If you plan on carrying any womens or alternative...

  • Comparing The Yakima Fullback and Halfback to Saris Bones and Thule Gateway
    Between all of the bike racks you mentioned I'd prefer the Yakima Fullback part # Y02634. The Fullbak is considered to be on the higher end of the trunk rack quality/feature spectrum yet they aren't that crazy expensive so the value for these two racks over the Saris Bones # SA801BL and especially Thule Gateway # TH88VR makes it the obvious choice. If you plan on carrying any women's or alternative framed bikes without horizontal top tubes you may also be interested in purchasing a Kuat...

  • Does Saris Bones 3 Bike Carrier # SA801BL Fit 2005 Ford Mustang Convertible with Spoiler
    Yes, the Saris Bones 3 Bike Carrier # SA801BL that you referenced is a confirmed fit for your 2005 Ford Mustang convertible with a rear spoiler. The arced legs of the rack allow it to fit right over the top of the spoiler without issue. This will work great to allow you to carry your bikes and won't require you to install a hitch either. If you plan on carrying any womens or alternative framed bikes without horizontal top tubes you may also be interested in purchasing a Kuat Bike Frame...

  • Recommended Trunk Mounted Bike Rack For A 2006 Audi S4 Convertible
    For your 2006 Audi S4 Convertible, I recommend the Saris Bones 2 Bike Carrier - Adjustable Arms - Trunk Mount, # SA805BL. This is a confirmed fit for your vehicle. It's Ached design fits over most spoilers and the injection-molded plastic arms and legs are durable and rustproof. Articulated rubber feet and vinyl-coated hooks help protect your vehicle. You may also be intersted in the stabilizer straps # SA3033 to keep your bikes handlebars and wheels straight during transport. With...

  • Where do Upper Arms of Saris Bones 3 Trunk Rack Attach to on 2013 Honda CR-V
    The Saris Bones 3 trunk rack part # SA801BL that you referenced is a confirmed fit for your 2013 Honda CR-V and the upper arms to rest against the back windshield. We actually had the chance to test fit this rack on a 2015 Honda CR-V which I attached a link to a video of. You can see how easy it is to setup and how it attaches to your vehicle.

  • Recommended 3-Bike Trunk Mount Rack for 2007 Lexus RX 350
    The Saris Bones 3 Bike Carrier # SA801BL referenced in your question is confirmed to fit your 2007 Lexus RX 350 but you are correct that it's limited to 2 bikes on this particular vehicle. This actually has less to do with the total weight of 3 bikes and more to do with the additional leverage that's put on the attachment point as weight gets further away from the rear. This is why the 3rd bike can't be used on the Saris Bones when used on your Lexus, as placing weight on the rear most...

  • Mounting Saris Bones 3 Bike Carrier Trunk Mount to 2016 Mazda CX-5
    I spoke with my contact at Saris and he confirmed that for your 2016 Mazda CX-5, the proper mounting location of the lower feet on the Saris Bones 3 Bike Carrier # SA801BL is in the rear license plate well. I have attached an image with a different model Bones Bike Carrier on a CX-5, but the fitment is the same.

  • Trunk Mount Bike Rack for a 2013 Audi A3 Hatchback and 3 Beach Cruiser Bikes
    While the 3-bike version of the Saris Bones bike rack # SA801BL physically fits your 2013 Audi A3 hatchback it is limited to 2 bikes according to the fit notes from Saris. I have a couple of 3-bike racks that will work though: We have the Hollywood Racks Express # HRE3 which is a very basic rack and does not have anti-sway cradles. Then the best choice is the Over-the-Top # HRF2-3 which is the perfect option if your A3 hatchback has that spoiler piece at the top of the hatch. This rack...

  • Recommend 3-Bike Trunk-Mount Rack Options For 2008 Mazda 3 Sedan
    I do have a solution for you to carry 3 bikes on your 2008 Mazda 3 Sedan, but since there are only Class I hitch receivers available for your vehicle, you would be limited to using a 2-bike hitch rack with a Class I hitch. As you noted, Class I hitches are limited to carrying 2 bikes due to the stresses applied on a hitch from a loaded bike rack. What you can do is use a trunk mounted 3 bike rack like the Saris Bones 3 Bike Rack, part # SA801BL. This trunk mounted bike rack will only fit...

  • Is Spoiler Clearance an Issue for the Saris Bones 3 on a 2015 Toyota Prius
    Spoiler clearance is a very important thing when it comes to trunk mount bike racks because, as you mentioned, if there isn't enough clearance you could damage the spoiler. We have determined that the Saris Bones 3 bikes racks, like part # SA801BL, on a 2015 Toyota Prius is a confirmed fit. I can also say that Saris has tested and approved their bike rack for use on your vehicle. I have added a review video of this bike rack for you to check out.

  • Can Beach Cruisers be Carried with Trunk Bike Rack Saris Bones
    As long as the beach cruisers you have weigh less than 35 lbs per bike the Saris Bones # SA801BL would be fine. If your bikes are heavier you'd need a hitch bike rack like the Hollywood Racks Trail Rider part # HR200Z with a hitch like the # 36660 and you'd be set.

  • How to Carry Bike Without Horizontal Top Tube on Hanging Bike Rack
    There's an adapter made specifically for allowing bikes like yours that do not have a horizontal top tube to be carried on a hanging bike rack like the Saris Bones # SA801BL that you mentioned. What you'd need is the adapter part # UB01. This attaches to the steering stem and the seat post to provide the attachment point for the rack. Check out the review video I attached for more info as well.

  • Methods to Avoid Trunk-Mount Bike Carrier from Damaging Paint Finish on Vehicle
    Any trunk-mount bike carrier will rest on part of the vehicle, primarily the bumper cover which supports most of the loaded rack's weight. Most trunk racks install in a similar manner, also using 4 to 6 straps to grip the outside edges of the hatch, which help distribute the total weight across more surface area and stabilize the rack when you are in motion. Since the Saris Bones 3 # SA801BL is among the lightest available racks it is a good choice for your 2014 Juke. The clips that grip...

  • How Difficult is it to Install the Draw-Tite Hitch # 24796 on a 2014 Nissan Altima
    The Draw-Tite Class I Trailer Hitch receiver, # 24796, is one of the more labor intensive installations for a trailer hitch on the 2014 Nissan Altima. The installation of the this hitch is rated a 9 out of 10 difficulty with an average install time at around 1-1/2 hours. The difficulty is the installation has to doe with the removal the mufflers, disassembly of the trunk interior, and the drilling of four holes to mount the hitch to the vehicle. If you think this might be too difficult...
