Amazon.com Product Description
Form and function collide with the Saris Bones three-bike trunk mount rack. Conceived by famed designer Fabio Pedrini, the Bones is more than just another rear-mounted rack. Rather, the gallery-worthy rack is a testament to style, design, convenience, and durability, with a 4.5 out of 5 star rating from Bicycling Magazine. An efficient bike rack needs to be more than just a way to transport your bike from point A to point B. It needs to be easy to use, easy to install, and easy on two of your most prized possessions: your bike and your vehicle. Fortunately, the Bones meets the above conditions with room to spare, with ratchet straps that keep your bikes secured to the rack arms, exclusive anti-sways, and articulated rubber feet to protect the finish on your vehicle. As a result, nothing will get damaged in transport, including your nerves. In addition, the Bones is a breeze to install, with vinyl-coated hooks that strap securely to the car with spring buckles. And the arched design fits practically any vehicle, from sedans to minivans, and even most cars with spoilers. 
The Bones 3-bike rack fits on almost any vehicle. | Constructed from heavy-duty, 100-percent recyclable plastic, the Bones rack is the strongest and most environmentally friendly rack on the market. The injection-molded arms and legs will never rust, and are capable of supporting up to three bikes with ease. Plus, the arms separate the bikes on different levels to ensure that they won't rub or touch during transport. And because it's a trunk-mounted rack, your bikes are always accessible and easy to put in place. No overhead lifting, twisting, balancing, or hefting required, letting you save your energy for the actual ride. All Saris bike racks carry a lifetime warranty. Note: The pink and purple cause-conscious racks let you support more than your bike, as $5 from the sale of each rack goes toward either breast cancer research (pink) or research into the cures for leukemia, lymphoma, and myeloma (purple).

 Saris Bones 3 February 17, 2010
Carlos Gutierrez (The EPT)
The Saris Bones is a good bike rack. I'm sure other racks fit bikes much more easily than this one, but this rack is perfect for my car with a trunk spoiler. Mountain bike fits pretty snug and it is a squeeze but it gets the job done. Road bike fits much better.
 only works with straight top tubes December 7, 2009

great looking rack. folds up small enough to keep in the trunk.
HOWEVER, it only works well for straight top tubes and pretty much eliminates anything except road bikes. top tube adapters do not work well with this rack.
Does not work well with over-sized tubed bikes. Large tubes simply do not fit into the slots.
 Great Trunk Mount Bicycle Rack October 5, 2009
Helge H. Buddenborg
I was introduced to the Saris Bones Bicycle through Saris's Website, never seen one in real life, until I received it. The Video Saris has on their website sold me. My car has a rear spoiler and the Saris rack fits perfect.
Fabulous Product !!Saris Bones 801 3-Bike Trunk Mount Rack
Plastic good, metal bad September 14, 2009
Sandy Beach (Galveston, Texas)
I love everything about the Saris Bones--especially the bright red that matches my car!--except the metal clamps that clip onto the trunk at 6 points. There's bound to be a better way to keep them from scratching the paint than my solution of wrapping them in Saran Wrap. Otherwise, it's easy to mount, holds the bikes securely, and did i mention it matches my car perfectly?
 A little crowded September 14, 2009
M. K. Herman
This was our first bike rack - we chose it based on customer reviews and the reputation of Saris. I liked it before we put it on the car - it's solid and the strap system is very secure. Mounting the rack onto the car was very straightforward. But... it took forever to get all 3 bikes on! The mounts are so close together that pedals were jamming into wheels, handlebars were jamming into seats, etc. One of our bikes is a child bike - if it weren't, I'm not convinced that we would have been able to mount all three. I suspect that this is a common problem. It would have been helpful if the mounting instructions included some tips for positioning things.
We also dented the back of the trunk door the first time we used the rack. Since then, we've positioned it lower so it pushes on the fender, and have not had any trouble. But again, a note about this in the instructions would have been nice.
