Hi Tom,

The Saris MHS Bike Rack for 1 Bike # SAR23MR weighs approximately 67lbs and has an 80lb bike capacity. The overall length from the hitch pin hole to the furthest point on the rack is approximately 27". If you need any other info just let me know and I'd be happy to help.

There are two different weights listed, with the difference of 30 pounds. Can you tell me which is correct for this model? Thank you.

@Theresa As a single-bike carrier the Saris MHS Bike Rack for 1 Bike # SAR23MR has an 80lb capacity. When using the add-on # SAR78MR the first wheel tray (closest to the vehicle) would still be 80lbs and the add-on tray would be 35lbs. If you get the two bike version # SAR73MR then the first two trays would be 80lbs and the add-on # SAR78MR would be 35lbs. The amount of trays you can have is going to vary by base, with the # SAR23MR the base can only accept one extra add-on tray for a total of two bikes.

That’s a smart concern, Nia. The Crosstrack sits close to the vehicle and folds up compact when parked. On low–ride height vehicles, the 1-bike versions #HLY98RR (for 2" hitch) or #HLY68RR (for 1-1/4" and 2" hitch) are preferable…
