Anyone Using a Saris Bones Trunk Mounted Bike Rack on Gen 1?

Linda L · 05-30-2008, 09:40 PM

Hi all -

I'm still trying to figure out a solution that will let me occasionally haul bikes on my 2002. I've noticed several Gen 2 owners like the Saris Bones bike rack. Has anyone used one of these on a Gen 1? I'm curious as to how well they fit--I used an "el cheapo" trunk mounted rack to get a new bicycle home from the store today, and I wasn't thrilled with how it fit (although we did get home without a scratch on the car!)

If anyone has any pictures of this rack on a Gen 1, I'd love to see them.

I have a 2001 and my 3 bike SARIS Bones is on it all summer and fall. Works well - I got it for this car because my prior car did not have a spoiler. Sorry no pictures.
