the two bottom feet are supposed to go on the bumper not the trunk lid itself, it even says so in the manual, but cudos for nice rack, just got mine, by mistake i paid mine 34 canadien dollar becos pricing error lol ,,, sooooo worth it yes
@crustydog16663 жыл бұрын
I set mine up like you have it with the bottom feet against the trunk instead of the bumper. I thought the anti sway straps were for the front wheel to keep it from flopping around. Oops. After watching this and other video on the subject, I realize I might have done that part wrong. Anyway, nice video.

I was thinking similar, surely the foot pads sit on the bumper and carry the weight of the bikes ?

Now does it mess up the paint at all with where the feet and straps go on the trunk.
@jobo1004Күн бұрын
Yes you will get scratches in your paint from this rack. The Saris video suggests cleaning the paint where the pads will touch it. I've installed some clear 3M paint protecting film in those areas.

In the USA, do you reverse the direction of the bikes since the driver side is left?
@jobo1004Күн бұрын
No you don't. The third frame support location on the rack is what determines how the bikes are to be oriented.

Think the MILLION DOLLAR question I have searched via google and KZfaq still no answer what are the holes on the straps for ? I currently own 2020 Saris 2 bones and older 3 bones and have no clue why the newer model strap in buckles have holes on the end
@EurocyclesIE3 жыл бұрын
The holes are designed for your fingers to help pulled the straps tight.

I have questions. So how far off the car is the front tire of the first bike? I have an exhaust that comes out just a smidge. Will small bungee straps keep the tire straight enough from touching? Also, one last question. How much paint rubs off from the friction, during the drive? I understand my high dollar bike is going to take some crashes, but just wondering if that's something to worry about.

@@tonysmith2082 honestly, I don't know how you get around it getting worn in transit, unless you have a quick release front wheel, and go with a roof mount. I put some AMS frame protectors on mine, so it's a little less noticeable. I'm not sure about the more expensive racks, but I kind of have a limit on what I am willing to pay lol. In my humble opinion, the pricing gets ridiculous.

I put some baby socks on all three legs and cut slits in the socks for and pulled them over the straps to protect the bike frame.
