Specifically for a ford focus estate 09 plate.

Any one got any advice/experience on a rack that fits the car?

Looking at saris bones range at the mo.

Will be carrying giant trance 27.5, charge scourer and sometimes the GF'S shitty old Apollo.

    Isn't that what the 'estate' bit is for?

    My old Trance wouldn't fit on my bones because of the shock position. Also if your Focus has a similar plastic bumper to my 2009 Mondeo it's too flexible to fit a bones rack.
    I use Thule pro ride roof bars. Any bike fits on them.

    Also had a bones 3 and was great rack but wouldnt carry my '13 Reign,which was a bummer as you can get fake top bar but if you have dropper post it would kill it.

    Fitted a tow bar to my focus and use a Thule carrier. Not the cheapest but so so good.
