Thanks for the pics. I have a Saris Bones but with the ability to carry 3 bikes.
That carrier has 4 legs instead of three, which just seems more stable. I haven't even tried it out yet on the Yaris. Usually, it is just my own bike, but I thought I would like the ability to transport a couple of friend's bikes. Only downside is that the 3 bike carrier sticks out farther. Perhaps I should trade someone. My carpooling buddy with the Yaris has a bike carrier that is smaller, (non-Saris), but I don't like the way it is secured to the car, and his has to be slightly off-center due to the rear wiper. I like the way the Saris clears the wiper. I had seen some posts from a year or so ago that used the hitch mount, which looked rather clean. However, there was a lot of discussion, both pro and con about not mounting a trailer hitch, even for a bicycle. BTW, Saris is headquartered in Madison, Wisconsin. ![]() Just had a get a plug in for the Badger State !! Last edited by Revsson; 07-10-2009 at 02:45 AM. Reason: Added Saris location info. |
