Saris Bones bike rack on coupe

GarryB · 04-17-2002, 02:54 PM

I just got a Saris Bones 3 bike for my Subaru, it supposedly will work on TT coupe. Has anyone tried it?

but thought it looked like it needed a bumper to support itself. I didn't actually try it though, so maybe it would work.

I was thinking that maybe, just maybe, you could move the supports inward to where they would rest in the indentation for the rear plate. I wouldn't want to corner real hard with that setup though, seems like it would be sort of top heavy.

Good luck, post results if it works.

I've got one that I used with my Honda Accord and I think it might work but I'd be so afraid that it'd scratch the finish. Doesn't matter how careful you are with stuff like this it is going to make a mess of your finish.
