LONG FOR THE RIDE
3
Just as no garage is complete without a bicycle, at Saris, we believe no car is
complete withouta bike rack.
Since setting off on this journey nearly 30 years ago, Saris racks have freed
millions of bike-lovers to explore new territory and terrain, take part in group
rides, bike pool to races, and commute to and from work.
And we continue to do so in style.
As the all-time #1 best-selling bike rack, Saris Bones® continues to set the
standard for excellence in design. Today all Saris bicycle racks are intuitive to
load and secure, and guaranteed for life.
Built by cyclists for cyclists in Madison, Wisconsin, we strive to create the
world’s best bike racks.
Because cycling is what we live for.
