Title-SARIS BONES RACK

Findings:

  • "Using most trunk-mounted racks is like making your bike ride the bus: It's functional, but not exactly a smooth, stylish and secure ride"
  • "Think of the Saris Bones Rack as tossing your bike into a sports sedan. High strength resin arms are capped with thick, soft rubber pads where they contact the car.."
