4-1/2 stars (out of 5), Bicycling Magazine. A Saris Bones rear rack is one of the few things in life that's both hard working and drop-dead gorgeous. Created by renowned italian designer Fabio Pedrini. The Bones rack gives you more than a stylish alternative to roof racks. It's a stable, secure ride. A system that mounts quickly to almost any vehicle make and model, from sedans to mini-vans-even when there's a rear spoiler involved. And that let's you save your energy for the road or trail.

Customer Reviews
This sturdy bike rack is easy to use, stylish, and functional
The Saris Bones 805 2-bike trunk mount rack stylishly mounts on a cars trunk, securely holding two bikes. Made of curved adjustable plastic arms and legs, this rack will mount over most spoilers and holds each bike at slightly different levels. When not in use, the rack will fold up into a compact block.
To secure the rack to the auto's trunk, position the arms and legs, and place the largest clip hooked around the top of the trunk. The medium sized clips hook along the sides and the smallest clips hook on the bottom of the trunk. Once in place tighten the straps to secure.
Now the rack is ready for the bikes. Each bike is secured to the rack with three quick fasten ratcheting straps. One strap wraps around the seat tube while the other two secure the top tube. The next bike goes on in the opposite direction with the same fastening straps in reverse. Women's bikes may require a crossbar adapter for proper fastening.
This sturdy bike rack is easy to use, stylish, and functional. Saris is so confident in the quality of this system, that they provide a lifetime warranty.

Worth every penny
I did a lot of looking before purchasing this rack. I ended up buying it at a local bike shop because I wanted to see it first. I have a Honda Accord coupe - 2 door - and the fit is just right for the car. We also have a van and the abiltiy to work on both is very handy. Setup is easy and the bikes are held firmly. I had used another rack previously that was loaned by a friend. It was very unstable compared to the Saris Bones.....
Excellent Rack
I have had a few different racks in the same price range. This is by far the BEST rack I have ever bought. The first time I used it, I traveled 600 miles- the bike didn't move. It's not hard to set up and really grips the bike - I highly recommend it.
