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.

Speed Cycles fast and efficient service plus competitively priced. Recommended.
As bike racks go I think the Saris Bones really stands out. It feels like a quality product from the off and is very easy to fit once you've been through the process a couple of times. Check out the youtube video of the installation if you want to see the rack in action before committing.
Speed Cycles service was exceptional. Very quick turnaround and also the cheapest amongst the retailers I check out. Will definitely use them again.
