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: 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.
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.

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.

Fits perfect on 2020 Chevy Equinox. Super easy install.
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: 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: 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.

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!
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.

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.

- How to Use Hatch Huggers When Installing Saris Bones Bike Rack on 2021 Subaru ForesterYes, you will need to replace the side hooks of the Saris Bones EX, 2-Bike # SAR83FR or 3-Bike # SA803, with the Hatch Huggers # SA3035 since the hooks won't fit in the seams at the sides of your hatch door on your 2021 Subaru Forester. We don't have a video showing how to install them on the side but I'm linking a video where we go over how to install the Hatch Huggers to the bike rack and then I'm attaching a photo a customer sent in where they use a magnet to keep the side straps in...

- Bike Rack Solution for When Towing Pop Up CamperI have a solution that would work great to allow you to carry a couple bikes while towing your pop up camper but we can't recommend you use a trunk rack while towing as there would most likely be clearance issues. Instead a really great and easy solution would be the Lipper Jack-it part # LC429756 which mounts to the same mount as your jack and gives you an easy way to carry bikes while towing. I attached a review video for this for you to check out as well.
view full answer... - Can Saris Bones EX 3 Bike Rack Be Used for 45 lb Bike on a 2023 Kia SoulThe cradles on the Saris Bones EX 3 Bike Rack # SA803 are the limiting factor when it comes to weight so even if your other bikes are lower than the individual weight capacity, the 45 lb bike will still overload that one cradle set and we want to avoid that. For your application I recommend installing the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # DT25GR because of the 2" hitch receiver, and using a 3-bike hitch rack like the RockyMounts MonoRail # RKY10004-10005 to carry your bikes....
view full answer... - Will The Saris Bones Bike Rack SA803 Fit On a 2015 Lexus RX 350? It sounds like you found the Saris Bones # SA803 while searching for a bike rack. This is a universal rack which can fit on cars or SUV's like your 2015 Lexus RX 350. I have linked a video below showing this bike rack being used on a 2016 Toyota Highlander as it is the closest we have to your Lexus. You will need the Hatch Huggers # SA3035 to replace the top hooks and not damage your hatch door.
view full answer... - Bike Rack Options for 2016 Lexus NX 200t That Are Not Hitch MountedI have a solution for you, but there are not any 2 bike racks that mount to the rear of your 2016 Lexus NX 200t. There is only one option for trunk mounted bike racks for your 200t and that is the Saris Bones EX 3 # SA803 . Saris is the pioneer of trunk mounted bike racks in this country and they make some of the most high quality trunk mounted racks on the market- the Bones EX 3 is no exception. The design of the arms makes it so that the bikes are separated to different levels in order...
view full answer... - Trunk Mounted Bike Rack Recommendation for 2019 Kia SorentoThe trunk mounted bike rack I would recommend for your 2019 Kia Sorento without a trailer hitch is the Saris Bones EX part # SA803. This is a very lightweight, secure, and easy to use bike rack that will work great to carry up to 3 bikes. 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 Adapter Bar # UB01 to provide a horizontal top tube on your bikes to provide an attachment point. I...

It's lighter weight, easy to install, and carries bikes securely. I attached a review video for this rack for you to check out as well. 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 Adapter Bar # UB01 to provide...
view full answer... - Trailer Hitch Fit for 2020 Kia Soul 1.6L TurboBoth Curt and Draw-Tite specifically list the 1.6L Turbo model Soul as fit exclusions for their # DT25GR and # C67FR hitches as the rear of the vehicle is different enough on the Turbo model that it prevents the hitch from fitting. If you were wanting the hitch for carrying bikes, you could use a trunk mounted bike rack like the Saris Bones EX # SAR83FR for a 2-bike model or # SA803 for a 3-bike model.
view full answer... - Yakima Hangout 3 vs. Saris Bones 3 for Carrying Carbon Frame BikesFor a carbon framed bike you are going to want to use a bike frame adapter bar like # UB01 so that the rack doesn't end up touching the delicate carbon frame material. Between the Yakima HangOut # Y02637 and the Saris Bones part # SA803 I would recommend the Saris as it's lighter weight, has a strap system that's easier to use, and has arced arms which help make loading the bikes a bit easier.
view full answer... - Why Does Saris Offer Saris Bones EX 3-Bike Rack on 2011 Prius and 2020 Volvo XC40 For 2 Bikes OnlySo to get the formal stuff out of the way, for both warranty and liability issues we do have to recommend you abide by the manufacturer's restrictions, including mounting your bikes in the positions closest to your 2011 Toyota Prius and 2020 Volvo XC40 with the Saris Bones EX 3-Bike Rack - Trunk Mount # SA803. Having said that, is it silly that a 3-bike rack is offered for these vehicles when it can only carry 2 bikes? Yes it is. But the reason that only two bikes can be mounted is likely...
view full answer... - Recommended Trunk Mounted Bike Rack for 2018 Ford EscapeYes, there are trunk mounted bike racks available for your 2018 Ford Escape. I recommend using the Saris Bones EX # SA803 because you're getting a high quality bike rack at a great price. The Bones EX does not require a hitch to carry bikes and can carry up to 3 bikes at a time (35-lbs per bike capacity). We do recommend using part # SA3035 to replace the lower hooks on the unit and make installation easier, but you can also place the hooks inside the vehicle-which is detailed in the included...

It fits all models of the Ford Edge and carries 3 bikes. The Saris Bones is a great option because of it's anti-sway cradles that secure the bikes to the rack. It also features adjustable arms so there is less of a need for a bike frame adapter bar on women's and children's bikes. While I do think the Saris Bones trunk mounted rack is a great option for you, however if you...

- Trunk Bike Rack Recommendations For Carrying Electra Townies On A 2018 Infinity QX30This is a tricky question because there seem to be some limitations to how you can attach a trunk rack to your vehicle. Thule does not even offer a trunk bike rack that will fit your 2018 Infiniti QX30. As is stands, there is not a platform style trunk bike rack that will mount to your vehicle. However, if you still want trunk bike rack, Yakima and Saris have trunk bike rack options that will fit your vehicle. If I am forced to choose a trunk bike rack, I would pick the Saris Bones 3,...

- Availability of Hitch For 2006 BMW 5 Series for 3 Bike RackThe only available hitch for the 2006 BMW 5 Series is the # C11498 Curt Class I Receiver Hitch. Unfortunately this is not a confirmed fit for your wagon, only the sedan. Regardless of that fact, the Class I hitch would have been limited to 2 bikes and you need to carry 3. Since there is not an available hitch I recommend using a trunk bike rack. The # SA803 Saris Bones EX 3 Bike Rack is a confirmed fit for your 2006 BMW 5 Series Wagon. It has anti-sway cradles with ratcheting straps that...

Although it states that it is a 3 bike rack for 35 pounds per bike, Saris has confirmed you can transport your two 40 pound e-bikes safely by using the two mounting points closest to the vehicle to aid in supporting the weight on your 2017 Toyota Camry. I have added a review video to showcase the features the Saris Bones offers.

For that reason, the 20" spare tire on your 2020 Acura MDX would need to be stored inside of the vehicle when using the Curt # C13146, or any of the other hitches available for your vehicle. Instead of using a hitch mounted bike rack you could use a trunk mounted rack like the Saris Bones EX # SA803, which is a great alternative that will provide you...

The Bones EX 3 will be able to hold your 35 pound mountain bikes. However, if you want extra security to help deter theft of your bikes from your rack or your rack from your vehicle, I recommend the Saris Cable Lock # SA981 as well as the Thule Passive Security Strap # TH533.

Both will utilize the Anchor Straps for Saris Bones, Bike Porter, and Sentinel Bike Racks - 80" Long - Qty 2 # SA2047 you referenced as replacement straps. They come with two straps that do have the rubber coated hooks so you will need to order 3 to replace all 6 straps/hooks.

If you're looking to carry a bike rack, your best bet would be to use a trunk mounted rack like the Saris Bones EX # SA803, which would allow you to carry up to 3 bikes.

If you have a spoiler you'd need to go with a hitch mounted option like the Hollywood Racks Trail Rider part # HR200Z with a hitch that fits your vehicle like the Draw Tite part # 75676.

The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C11604 is a Class 1 hitch and Class 1 hitches can only carry up to 2 bikes. The reason Class 1 hitches can not carry more than 2 bikes is that they cannot handle the additional torque on the frame from the 3rd-4th bike. Instead you can use the Saris Bones EX 3 Bike Rack # SA803. This is a trunk mount style of bike rack that will...
