Will Saris Bones Truck Mount Rack Fit on 2013 Nissan Sentra with Flat Trunk
Question:
When I put in my car: 2013 Nissan Sentra, the Saris Bones trunk mount was one that came up as it would fit. My Nissan does have a low profile spoiler. The question I have is, are you sure? The photos and video are all done with a hatch back type of vehicle which is very different then my car. I feel like the way the upper arm and low arm brace itself, it wouldnt work this way on a flat trunk. Or does it mount against the back window? Also, loading bikes is shown with boyinch style bikes only. How would a girls bike mount on here? Thanks for your help

I checked with my contact at Saris and the Bones trunk mount bike is a fit for your 2013 Nissan Sentra with low profile spoiler. Take a look at the video of this bike rack installed on a 2014 Chevy Cruze and you can see how it is installed on a flat trunk. You will have no problem clearing the low profile spoiler.
Since you will be carrying bikes that do not have a top frame bar that goes straight across (like a typical men's bike would) I recommend using bike adapter bar # SA3040. This will allow you to carry those bikes more level and will provide better ground clearance. I have linked a video showing how the adapter works.
