Saris Guardian Trunk Bike Rack Recommendation for 2018 Volvo S90
Question:
Please confirm if the Saris Superbones3 is a recommended fit for a 2018 Volvo S90? I spoke with a rep at retailer a few months ago and she indicated their was no recommended truck mount bike rack.

The Saris Guardian # SA43FR is not a fit for your 2018 Volvo S90. But we trunk mounted racks for your Volvo.
I recommend the Yakima HangOut Trunk MounT - 3 Bike Rack # Y02638. It is easy to install and weighs only 16.5 lbs. It does a great job securing bikes due to the safety straps and buckles that holds them tight during transport. It includes StableCradle anti-sway cradles with ChainStraps to hold the bike frames at 3 points and to prevent sway and bike-to-bike contact.
This rack does not include locks, but you could add the security strap # Y02623 to secure the rack to the trunk and the cable lock and core # Y07233, # Y07202, to secure the bikes to the rack if you wish.
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 Bike Frame Adapter Bar # UB01 to provide a horizontal top tube on your bikes to provide an attachment point. I attached a review video for this product also. This will allow the bikes to be carried more level and will provide more ground clearance.
