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.
The sleek and sturdy Bones EX lets you carry 3 bikes on the back of your vehicle. It has all the great features as the popular Bones rack and adds expanded, dog legs that allow the rack to fit over most large spoilers. It also has an integrated strap management system that keeps the tie-down straps from flapping while you are driving.
Expanded Base with Dog Legs
The Bones EX will fit on more types of vehicles than the Bones. It has an expanded, dog leg design on the upper 2 legs that allows the rack to fit over most spoilers.
Individually Adjustable Arched Arms
The Bones EX 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.
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.
You can fold the arms down when the rack is not in use. This frees up space for you to park in your garage without removing the rack from your vehicle.
Ratcheting Anti-Sway Cradles
Rubber, anti-sway cradles with spring-loaded ratchet 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
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. The rubber pads protect your paint and are slip-resistant to help prevent the rack from shifting during transit.
6 Extra-long nylon straps anchor the rack in place on your trunk or hatch with steel hooks. The hooks have a vinyl coating 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.
There are grooves built into the legs that prevent the straps from flapping while you are driving. Simply run the straps through the grooves while you are setting the rack up on your vehicle.

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

2014 Subaru Outback Wagon
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.

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.

Thanks for your review! Customer service should be reaching out to you in the near future about the missing hook. As for the placement, it looks like you did it correctly based off the picture.

Very efficient delivery and great customer service!
by: Jon01/06/2021
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.

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.

Great!!
by: Greg08/02/2022
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: Jacqueline08/18/2021
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.

It sounds like either, your bike is too heavy this 3 bike carrier can only hold 35 lbs per bike or something is not attached right. Stabilizing straps help with bike tire wiggle which may cause the rack to swing around or finding an adapter bar for childrens or step through bikes so that they are stable on the rack.

Fits perfect on 2020 Chevy Equinox. Super easy install.

Subaru Forester
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: Peter06/13/2021
I am very pleased with the Saris Bones EX 3 Bike Rack. This bike rack is well designed and built to a high quality level. I am also very pleased with etrailer.com. Their website is easy to navigate, there is plenty of information about the products and the bike rack was delivered ahead of schedule. I highly recommend etrailer.com
by: Dave B11/12/2020
It works great when I carry 2 bikes on the outside 2 racks. When I used the rack closest to the car to carry 3 bikes there were minor scratches.
by: Emily09/09/2021
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.
by: Joseph02/21/2022
This is a well built, sturdy and durable bike rack that is easy to use and folds up nicely for storage.
by: Anthony09/03/2020
The web page was very helpful in selecting the right bike rack. Very informative on installation.
Great follow up on order and delivery.
Plus the Saris Bones is made in the USA and shipped from a USA supplier.

2016 Honda HR-V
I ordered the rack on the website after doing research and deciding that this model was the best for my HRV. It was delivered on time just as projected. I took it out of the box and it was ready to go. I mounted it on my car per the direction which was very easy and you can see it’s a very sturdy unit. I haven’t tried it with my bike yet but I have no doubt based on how it fits the car that it will work well.
by: Gene 09/17/2020
After a great deal of figuring out which frame will work for my car and me messing up I got great help from the staff. Ashley took my last call and we decided on this rack. Just got it, very sturdy and instructions are fairly easy to figure out. Can’t wait to get on the road.

At first I was skeptical about using this bike rack but it held true and beat my expectations. I’d definitely buy this again and highly recommend it!

Easy to install and adjust to different frame types. One of the few racks available for the Toyota Highlander so highly recommended.

Sturdy! No problem holding three bikes. Easy to take on and off car too. Have Rouge Sport and not many options to fit vehicle. So glad I found this model.

It is an excellent option and one of my personal favorites. In regards to hatch access, this is not possible for any trunk mount bike rack so you'd need to go with a hitch rack if this is needed Please note, the Saris SuperBones is no longer available.

The only option to have a trailer hitch receiver installed would be to have a local fabrication shop make one around your center mount exhaust.

view full answer... - Saris Trunk Mounted Bike Rack that Fits 2013 Toyota VenzaSince you only have to carry 2 bikes at a time I'd go with the Saris Bones # SA805BL over a 3 bike version as this would be all you need, easily and securely carries up to 2 bikes like you need, and also fits both your 2012 Subaru Outback and your 2013 Toyota Venza. If you'd prefer the 3 bike Bones EX part # SA803 you referenced this rack would certainly fit and work well. It would give you room to carry a third bike if ever needed as well.

I'll start off by saying that I've never seen a trunk mounted bike rack that has damaged the rear window or spoiler when properly installed on the vehicle. The great thing about the Saris Bones EX 3 # SA803 is that most of the weight of the bikes and rack is going to sit on the lower legs of this rack, which means that the rear bumper and the frame of the vehicle are going to do the heavy lifting, so to speak. The top...
