5Works well for intended application
By CP Lemon
Having hit my mid-life crisis, late last year I suddenly became intensely interested in getting a 2 seat convertible sports car (aka roadster). The only barrier was that I needed to be able to carry my bikes. The main criteria were that the rack needed to be easily detachable and not weigh too much (my car can only carry 400lbs total!). After much research I decided to order the Saris T-Bones. I actually got the three bike version because I also planned to use it on my wife’s SUV.

There really aren’t any other racks out there like this one. Thule has a lightweight rack, but it’s still much heavier than this one, and not easily detachable.

When you buy this rack you get the full package:
- three point attachment (holds the seat tube as well as top tube so that bikes don’t sway and hit eachother)
- integrated locking (detachable part of rack locks to hitch-mounted part, hitch part locks to hitch, cable locks bikes to rack)
- stand for rack when it’s detached from car
- just 10lbs, so it’s a cinch to handle
- very attactive, brushed aluminum column, light grey plastic, yellow accents (matches my car well)
- bag, but I don’t use that as I have a garage

Being so light and largely made of plastic, this rack feels flimsy, but the build quality is excellent. It’s rated to carry 90lbs (I think, check the specs), but I will drive very carefully if I actually load three mountain bikes on this thing. It has nice two layer straps to hold the bike in.

Other reviewers have commented that it’s hard to get the column off in hot weather. I can see how this could happen, as the fit if very tight to keep the column from swaying. I spray light oil on that area to prevent it seizing (I’ll probably try some silicone grease).

Overall this rack works exactly like described in the video. If you want a rack to keep attached to your car/SUV all the time, this is not the right rack. If you want one that pops on/off easily then this one is great.

5Great Bike Rack!!
By Matt
I was sad when I had to sell my old Saris bones trunk rack because I wanted a rack where I would have access to my trunk. Then Saris came out with this…it has all the benefits of the old rack (plus a few others) and connects to your hitch! Three locking mechanisms to keep your gear safe…car to hitch, hitch to rack, and rack to bikes (all uses the same key). The rack does slide onto the hitch mount a little less smooth than I would like but it’s manageable. Lifetime warranty is also great!

    SPARE YOURSELF THE HASSLE!!!
    Rating:2 out of 5 stars
    OK… I haven’t seen any reviews for this rack, so I thought I would write one and spare you all the hassle of owning it and going through what I went through…

    Let me start off by saying that this is a really cool design, and it would def be a nice rack IF it worked as shown in the video, BUT it doesn’t!! Every time the temp would get above the 80s my rack would NOT “slide” on and off the base. In fact, it was very hard to get on and off… and was often stuck for an extended period of time and I could not get into my trunk! Talk about a PAIN!! I actually had the company I ordered it from send out a new receiver part thinking mine was defective… It worked fine for about a week UNTIL the temp went up again. I’m not a scientist, but I’m guessing the plastic expands in the heat???

    If you buy this rack and you live anywhere that experiences a humid summer season be prepared to ‘fight’ with it to get it on and off. I’m talking full body weight leaning on it practically jumping up and down to get it on… and then not even being able to get it off. IT’S MORE OF A WORKOUT THAN RIDING THE BIKE!

    I eventually returned it (fully assembled because I could not get it apart) for a new rack. BUMMER!!
