Product Description
Saris Sentinel Trunk Bike Racks feature unique bike hold-downs that separate and firmly hold up bikes. Coated hooks protect the car's finish Comes assembled Adjusts
Product Description
Got a hatchback? A four-door sedan or a passenger van? Then the Sentinel two-bike trunk rack from Saris is designed with you in mind. Fits atypical body styles and can be mounted over most spoilers or lighting arrays. Carries up to three bikes. Made with adjustable arms that can be mounted securely in multiple positions or can fold flat for storage. The hold-downs wrap around each bike independently so to keep them crashing into one another and to keep then from wobbling while in transit. The hooks that secure the rack to the trunk seam are neoprene coated so they won't scratch your car's finish, and the bottom bar brace has a vinyl covered foam pad to separate the rack from your trunk lid. No assembly required. Just take it out of the box, strap it on and go.

 Skeptical No More April 21, 2008

We had a bike rack a few years ago that attached to the trunk of our Saturn. I don't remember the brand, only that it was so difficult to use that we only used it a few times.
Now living in the Desert Southwest, we've gotten more into biking and were looking for a rack for our Toyota Prius. We went to sporting goods stores and bike stores only to be told that nothing they had would fit. We did some Internet research and found the Saris. The price was right and the reviews were positive. I was skeptical but we figured we'd try it because we hadn't found any other options.
Well, I've got to tell you that even the very first time we used it, we took only 10 minutes to get two bikes hooked on (and they STAYED on even at highway speeds).
This is a NICE rack. Thanks to all those who reviewed it previously and helped me overcome my skepticism.

I used this rack a couple of times. I have a corolla 2002 which has a spoiler. I have it to carry two specialized rock hopper. Its fits over the spoiler pretty well and is sturdy.

Finally, a rack that fits over spoilers!! We have an '02 Mustang convertible and an '05 RX8. Both have fairly large spoilers and we use this rack on both cars. However, because of the way we need to angle the rack over the spoilers, we need to take off the front wheels in order to fit two bikes at the same time.
The rack hooks onto the back of the trunk and the bottom of the trunk with two sets of straps. As long as you tighten all four straps as much as possible, the rack stays put. We've gone up to 65 mph with two bikes on the rack, and the rack hardly moves. You still want to be cautious with bumps and turns, but otherwise the rack is great. It also goes on and off the car very easily.

I bought this rack in order to pick up a bicycle 160 miles away. I went to the Saris web site where they were able to tell me what rack to use for my car. The Sentinal 2-Bike Trunk Mount Rack easily and firmly fit on my 2009 Pontiac G6. My only comment is that I wish it had come with more tie-downs to better immobilize the bike. A couple of over-sized Velcro cable ties worked just fine.
My other concern was whether this rack would scratch the paint on my car. The foam pads did a nice job of protecting the trunk and the plastic coated hooks left no evidence of the rack on the car. The rack easily breaks down to store in its original box. It was a good investment. I'm sure I'll use it again for other long distance trips with my bike.

I bought one of these for a trip down to Austin, TX for South by Southwest, a huge arts/tech/film/music festival in March. I attached it to the car late at night, put two bikes on it, and drove 15 hours on highways. It was completely solid and never even moved. Highly recommended!
