Saris Superclamp EX Bike Rack: Securely Transport Your Bikes on Your Vehicle

Joel Matlin: Great quality, way to mount 2 bikes.
Easy to mount and easy to understand how it functions. Company is very responsive to any missing parts. Highly recommend!0

Mountain Biker: I never liked the idea of roof racks (one slip and you've done some serious damage to your paint), and trunk racks got annoying to constantly take off/put on and they blocked access to the trunk when in use. This rack solved all those problems. It's easy to load/unload, holds two full-size mountain bikes with ease, and can tilt away from the hatch/trunk to allow access even with the bikes loaded. It has two built-in cable locks that will not deter a thief with a grinder, but they will keep your bike from getting stolen while you pop into the coffee shop for 5 minutes. It also comes with a lock to secure it to your hitch, which is a nice touch.

I had a small issue with the arms, called Saris and they immediately shipped me a new part. I've had this rack for almost 4 years and still loving it!

Eric HowesEric Howes: I was hopeful as this product looked solid. However with light use both upright arms fail to lock. It didn't take long for this to happen and Customer service only suggest that I replace this new purchase with completely new Upright Arms. I wish they would just send me the locking mechanisms that failed so I can repair this, verses, requiring the purchase of the entire Upright Arms.

I will not being purchasing them due to how fast my current rack arms failed. This isn’t a great investment.

The Wheel tray strap broke too, but I don't blame Saris for that.

Cy cle: I bought a Saris Superclamp Ex 2 Bike Hitch Car Rack to haul my 2 electric bikes. My purchase was in November of 2022. I used the rack for the first extended trip in April, 2023. On the interstate, with the bikes loaded, the rack tipped back (as if to allow me to open the back hatch on my SUV). It locked back into place but it happened a second time. After that I strapped it to the roof rack to avoid a 3rd time. When we got home, and I have to repeat that this was 6 months after purchasing the rack, I called Saris. The agent immediately said, “That shouldn’t happen and I’m going to send you a replacement.” No questions. No hassle. No delay. 2 days later I received and used the replacement and it works just like it is supposed to. And this company is one of the best I have dealt; immediate positive action to solve the customer’s problem. What more could I ask!!!

GrapeGumUnderYourDeskGrapeGumUnderYourDesk: This rack is rated for two 60 pound bikes. I use it in my 1.25" receiver to carry my Aventon Aventure. My bike weighs 72 pounds per the website. I have a 4 pound Abus lock, two racks (front and rear), a trunk bag filled with a Kryptonite lock and cables, mirrors, etc on the bike. I remove the battery to lighten the load by 7 pounds, but the bike probably still weighs at least 70 pounds, and this rack handles it like a champ!
I did get the optional fat tire holders to place closest to the vehicle. The heaviest bike of the two should be placed near the bumper.

I don't usually use the tilt option, but it handles the weight well. I'm quite impressed the rack is that secure on a small receiver. I accidently turned into a steep downhill drive that had washed out, and the loaded rack swayed, but did fine.

This rack doesn't have a ramp for walking the bike up, but I've found that I can lift the bike's front half up using both hands, and then the rear. The fat tire holders help there, too. The bike is balanced, even while unsecured.

I had noticed that the arm that holds the back half of my bike had the paint rubbed off in one spot from the...

Marie Hélène Tremblay: J’ai toujours eu des supports à vélo Saris donc je ne pense pas que le problème soit le support en soit. Il n’est arrivé et la boîte était vraiment brisée. Ensuite, il manquait une vis pour l’assembler et un boulon pour une des deux cuillères. Amazon m’a crédité pour que j’achète la vis manquante. Quand j’ai finalement monté le support, j’ai réalisé que La poignée du support en plastique était craquée - elle a finalement cassée - et clairement ça avait déjà été utilisé et endommagé.
Je l’ai retourné pour remboursement. Je rachèterai peut être le même support mais chez mon détaillant du coin

Robert Durant: I have used rack with two ebikes for two weeks. Does seem to wobble some. We were in a collision on the expressway and both bikes and rack are great. Watch some of the reviews, I feel I see some installation errors. If you do not install bottom tire carrier correctly I can see how it could crack. I have had my rack for not quite a year. I have had it on my pickup to Florida. I have had it on my jeep from Michigan to Virginia then to Tennessee and back. I have not had one issue. I do remove ebikes batteries before transport. Added weight. Thankyou.

Handsome dude: The rack is awesome though the integrated cable lock isn’t long enough to secure both wheels on two bikes. An additional lock is required

Chris WChris W: Construction seems very good, build in locks we a nice feature. I am carrying two eBikes seats a batteries removed, Both bikes approx. 100 pounds heavy rack rocks quite a bit on rough roads, and care must be taken in uneven roads, speed bumps and curds with the heavy bikes. Found that my kick stand was getting in the way of the rear arm a small adjustment and sorted out. Will be keeping an eye on the wheel cradles for stress once again weight of bikes. Happy over all so far after a recent road trip.
