Product Information
Full details
The Saris Wheel Stabilizer Straps are designed for cyclists who need a secure, reliable way to prevent bike movement during transit on hitch or trunk-mounted racks. By keeping the handlebars from turning and wheels from spinning, these straps minimize the risk of damage to your vehicle or frame; however, they require manual adjustment for every use to ensure a proper, non-slip fit.

FAQs
How many straps are included in a package?
Each package contains 2 stabilizer straps.
Can these be used on roof racks?
These are primarily designed for hanging-style trunk and hitch racks; they are not intended for use with roof-mounted systems.
Will these straps scratch my bike's paint?
The straps are designed to be soft against the frame, but it is recommended to keep the area clean before attachment to avoid trapping dirt which can cause fine scratches.
Do I need tools to install these?
No, the straps are tool-free and can be installed and adjusted by hand.
Are these compatible with non-Saris racks?
Yes, they are compatible with most hanging-style bike racks on the market.
Troubleshooting
Straps slipping during transit
Ensure the non-slip side is facing the frame and tighten the buckle until there is no visible slack before starting your trip.
Strap is too short for my bike frame
Check if you are wrapping the strap around excessive accessories; remove any frame bags or lights before securing the stabilizer.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup is straightforward: identify the pivot point of the handlebar, wrap the strap around the frame and stem, and pull to tighten. The straps are compatible with almost all Saris hanging-style trunk and hitch racks including the Bones, Bones EX, Bones Hitch, SuperBones, Sentinel, Guardian, and Grand Slam models. To maintain the life of your straps, wipe them down with a damp cloth after use to remove road grime or salt, and store them in a dry place to prevent the non-slip material from degrading due to UV exposure or moisture.
