Saris SuperClamp Gets Modern Makeover, New Freedom is Most Compact Tray-Style Hitch Rack
We got our hands on the latest hitch rack lineup from Saris while at Sea Otter Classic, and they look built for battle. From everyday utility to full-blown e-bike hauling, Saris has an all-new trio of racks built around modern bikes and modern needs, which could put them back at the forefront of the bike rack space. The recently launched Saris Edge (Check out Jeremys review here) is leading the charge, a premium rack designed to meet the growing demands of e-bike transport. The new Edge is backed by two fresh takes on Saris most-loved models: the Freedom (Made in the USA) and SuperClamp (Built for the longer haul).(Photos: Jordan Villella/BikeRumor.com)Saris SuperClamp Speedy Loading, Sleek FootprintThe updated SuperClamp is all about fast loading, tight security, and minimal fuss. With a spring-loaded arm that locks down without touching the frame, it is a favorite among folks who transport carbon bikes or want to avoid frame rub.The new version includes tool-free anti-wobble technology, a welcome addition that keeps things rock-solid without the need for a toolbox. Saris also added a folding and tilting mechanism, which makes storage and access that much easier. It still handles bikes up to 60 lbs. each, so yes, your e-bike is good to go here, too. Saris still has the SuperClamp G3 rack on the website in both 2 and 4 bike versions, so its not clear yet if this will replace the current SuperClamp, or just add to the existing lineup. SuperClamp Key Features:Zero Frame Contact Spring-loaded arm secures bikes by the wheels, not the frame.All-Aluminum Construction Lightweight, rust-resistant, and durable.Tool-Free Anti-Wobble System Rock-solid fit without needing tools.Adjustable Front Wheel Block Fits wheels from 20 to 29.Folding & Tilting For compact storage and rear trunk access.E-Bike Friendly Supports two bikes up to 60 lbs. each.MSRP: $799.99(Photo/Saris)Saris Freedom Light, Compact, and Built in the USAThe Freedom Rack lives up to its name. Made entirely in the USA, its the lightest and most compact two-bike tray-style rack in Saris lineup. Thanks to a fixed-position arm, it is designed with zero frame contact, giving peace of mind whether youre hauling a steel gravel bike or an ultralight carbon race rig.We especially liked the Fast Fit Technologya rotating wheel tray that automatically adjusts to different wheelbases without requiring extra fiddling. Add an anti-wobble hitch pin and rust-resistant aluminum construction, and you have a rack that exceeds its price point. Saris Freedom Key Features:Aluminum Construction Lightweight, strong, and corrosion-resistant.Fixed Position Arm Secures bikes without contacting the frame or fork.Fast Fit Technology Wheel tray auto-adjusts for different wheelbases.Anti-Wobble System The locking hitch pin ensures stability on rough roads.Compact Design The smallest footprint of any 2-bike tray-style rack.MSRP: $499.99Look for more details on both these new racks coming soon!Saris.comThe post Saris SuperClamp Gets Modern Makeover, New Freedom is Most Compact Tray-Style Hitch Rack appeared first on Bikerumor.
