I did a bit research on the Saris Bones 3 as a replacement for my Halfords rack. It cost more than I would normally consider paying though after a very quick delivery from Speeds Cycles (and the best internet price!) and fitting, I have no regrets. If you're in the market for a stylish, practical, cycle rack that's easy to fit you can't go wrong with the Bones 3. Speeds Cycles is currently the most competitively priced at £105.00 coupled with quick delivery time. Say no more...
I paid for this item at 15:30 monday afternoon after I missed an item on eBay. For 20 quid more than a second hand rack it was delivered brand new the following morning, how it got here so quick I have no idea. Top marks for a speedy service.
The rack fitted to our car safely and securely after a couple of attempts to get the right geometry. I have reservations about the the clips that fit to the boot as I expect they would do slight damage to paint on the edge or underside if not careful. I will put some tape where they will contact the boot for extra security.
We are off to centre parc soon and I will know just how good this rack is by then.
I bought the Bones on a Sunday and it turned up a couple of days later - so well done speed cycles for prompt delivery! Also speed cycles were the cheapest anywhere for this prioduct undercutting others by at least £20 and with free delivery. The product itself seems fab - i have given it 4 stars as i havent had chance to put the bike on it yet but i have put it on the car and out my full weight on it and ponce i readjusted the legs, the top arms didnt budge off the wondow which was my fear. Its made of very sturdy stuff and folds back flat for storage. i have a 58 plate fiesta (old model) and it fits perfectly. The straps (there are 3 straps that are double ended) are all labelled to make it easier. The only problem i can foresee after a few uses is the plastic screws but am happy to find out my product has a lifetime gaurentee and assume these will be covered under it.! thanks speed cycles am impressed all round!!!
Excellent rack, fits a wide range of cars, perfect if you're looking to fit a rack to fit over a rear spoiler. Very sturdy design, quick & easy to assemble & disassemble. Can be a bit of a tight squeeze trying to the arms through downhill frames, but managed to get a giant glory & an orange patriot on there no probs.
The guys at Speed Cycles are really helpful and offer brilliant service at a great price
Rock solid rack at a very competitive price, and a fast delivery service. Check out the helpful installation video on youtube. Don't overtighten the plastic thumbscrews as the threads are easily stripped. hence 4 stars for the product.
Great service from a great store! Placed my order then got a call to say the box had water damage and did I want to wait or to take the one in stock. Rack is great, well built and sturdy.
Super product - the best bike rack on the market by far (and Speeds are by far the best on price). Spoke to the guys in the shop and they were extremely helpful - rang me back within an hour to tell me when they'd be in stock. Order was delivered within 24 hours! Great service, will definitely order from them again.
