Why a Saris Bones Audi A3 Bike Rack ?
Arc-based design fits over most spoilers and separates bikes on different levels. The injection-moulded arms and legs (“bones”) are made from a plastic resin and are said to be the strongest on the market. Most of the weight of the bikes is taken on the Bumper Legs and the rear bumper.
Rubberised feet protect vehicle and coated straps protect bike. All three straps pass through the aluminium extrusion, helping to keep everything well-integrated and tidy, and each hook is marked as appropriate – Upper, Side, Lower. Details of this sort make a big difference when fitting the rack to your Audi A3
The hold-down and anti-sway straps have a softer plastic lining; generally all parts that come into contact with the vehicle and bikes are soft enough to prevent friction damage as long as both faces are clean before fitting, i.e. a dirty bumper might end up being scuffed, the same for a muddy bike tube.
The splined aluminium extrusion and the arm and leg joints are designed to absorb a useful amount of force, minimising the load on the straps.Innovative Arc based design means the angle and fit can easily be adjusted to fit your A1 perfectly. The arms and legs on the rack can be folded flat after use for easy storage.
