thomas jourdran: Testé pendant mes vacances sur les petites routes Irlandaises. Parfait pour un vélo de courses. Facile et rapide à monter. Juste prévoir un petit protège pédale ( coté carrosserie) si vous ne voulez pas demnter celle ci.

Beehill: This is lightweight and easy to install but the hardware is of the lowest quality. The straps never tighten as much as you need them to. I made a few stops on my way to the bike trail, and each time I had to reconnect a strap hook. I think the plastic rack is strong enough to hold the bike but when I take a corner everything flexes enough to make the straps pop loose. The bike sits too close to the car with this rack. The peddle rest on the hatch and scratched my car. Don't Buy This! Saris needs to go back to the drawing board on this one. I spent the whole drive worrying the bike would fall off my car. I've been driving to the bike trail for 25 years now. I've had a several different bike racks. This one is total junk!

Rebecca J: This was a steal off amazon warehouse deals. Very fortunate to have seen it. It's perfect for one bike on the back of many cars.

One addition I made to the unit was to add a softer non-slip grip to the 'pads' that go on the car. They're just hard plastic and slide around easily in the rain, so I glued some kitchen drawer liner to them.

Lindsay Guy: I bought this for lockdown so I could let my child cycle around the park. I am a mum of 3 who drives a Renault scenic. I had to write a review because it is brilliant. I've used it about 5 times, it's easy to click on in seconds and is sturdy. I've used it on the motorway and no issues. I can easily secure the bike on myself and it's really handy to remove and store in the boot for when needed. Will have to get the bigger one when my other 2 are old enough. 10/10 would recommend.

Anonymous1: Bought this to use on a 2014 Toyota Corolla. Nothing to construct as this comes as one piece straps attached and all. My car wasn’t listed by the Saris website as verified compatible, but it fits well and has not wobbled or become loose after a single drive consisting of 3 speed bumps, city and highway driving for 30 minutes to a trail and 30 minutes back on a different route with residential roads containing >3 additional speed bumps, followed by the initial 3 speed bumps to park at home.

Assembly/disassembly takes me 2-3 minutes (rubber feet on side and top of trunk, tighten 2 straps to the top of the trunk and 2 straps to the bottom opening of the trunk).

Bike attachment and removal takes me 5-10 minutes (two straps to tighten at the top, I always use the 3rd strap tightened on the vertical bar that holds the bike seat to prevent swaying, and I separately bought a $4 adjustable rope with clip ends to run through the front and back tires to prevent the wheels from spinning which prevents the pedals from moving and spares my trunk from scratching if the pedals are placed in the inset groove of the trunk where they do not touch the...

Greg A.Greg A.: I bike to work and my son bikes to school. I was looking for a bike rack for days when bad weather or other circumstances make it impractical to bike home and we need to be picked up. I specifically wanted something inexpensive, and easy to install and use. Also compact and light, if possible.

This rack does all those things. It is extremely easy to put on or remove from the car. I have a 2006 Mazda 3 hatchback and installation is very simple and direct: put the four clips in place and cinch up the slack. The only caveat is that mounting at the recommended angle on my car obstructs the rear window wiper.

Otherwise, the rack is small and light enough to keep in the car's trunk until needed. It installs quickly - just make sure to test-fit the rack on the car before you need to use it. It helps to keep the top straps set and only loosen the bottom straps to remove/replace. The straps are very long, so you might want to use rubber bands or something to keep the slack wound up.

The mounting straps use spring loaded metal buckles to hold tension. The top buckles rest on top of the strap material, but there is a possibility they could slide around...

C M: Before purchasing this rack I knew the weight limit was only 35 lbs. Because I have a female bike frame, I have to use a cross bar adapter to properly hang it on this rack and that pushes the weight over 35 lbs. The plastic seems a little weak and I am not fond of the built in (replaceable) plastic straps that hold the bike to the rack. They just don't feel safe enough to me. The nail in the coffin for this rack is that you can not drive over 65 mph when using it. That was not listed anywhere in the description but is in the information tag that comes with the rack. I will be driving at least 75 mph and don't want to risk any problems that may occur from it not being sturdy enough to handle that. I really like the design and it looks simple to install, but sadly it just won't work for my needs.
