Why this product

Why the Saris MHS Modular Base?

This is the foundation of the Saris Modular Hitch System — buy the base, then add whatever tray configuration you need for up to three bikes. At 38 lbs with steel construction, the base provides the tilt-away mechanism and hitch connection. No bikes attach to the base alone — you need to add trays separately. I recommend this to riders who want maximum flexibility to reconfigure their rack setup season to season or trip to trip.
