> 3 dayWe live in a small condo and have 2 bikes. They are folding bikes which makes it a bit more challenging. Storing them was always awkward at best before I found these racks. We used all sorts of other rack systems before. These ones are easy to install. They are SO practical. Very well designed. Super easy to put a bike in and out, no matter what kind of bike. They tuck out of the way when not in use. And they even rotate so I can store stuff between the bikes! I almost never rate things 5 stars but these racks have earned it!

Greater than one weekOur garage is pressed for space, so I was happy to find these for our new Aventon Pace 350s. Mounting took some time and tools but its worth the effort. The bikes hang securely and are easily accessed. We had to use a bungie to keep them away from the car but its a simple solution and works perfectly. The bike on the right needs a slight adjustment so the handlebars clear the front tire of the other bike. Ive got the bikes off the floor and the 2 1/4 tires fit this 2.4 rack securely. Ive got them bolted to studs each with the 4 supplied bolts. They arent moving and the 50lb bikes are held securely. I did ding these a star because one of the caps over the bolts on the end broke. Trying to get the cap off one of the latches on the side broke off on the rack side. Fortunately it was a top cap so the cap still covers but is not secured. This is a bad design and its hard to get the caps on and off and they are easy to break. Be careful with this part of the assembly (remove and replacement.) This is literally the worst part of the installation. The instructions are very clear about how to measure and install. Back the bike against the wall and place the rack flat on the floor with the tire mounted, as if it was on the wall. Measure to the bottom of the rack and theres your starting point on the wall. I bumped mine 2 so the tires would not drag and this works well. There is a part at the back tire lower on the wall that is V shaped and does not hold our tires at all. That could also be improved. Once the rack is mounted and the bike hanging you can put the V behind the lower tire and mark its place. Remove the bike and mount the V. I wish it was U shaped like the rack. This is a good rack solution for your bikes if it fits your needs. Just be careful with the end covers (caps.)

> 3 dayI have limited space in my garage and 4 bikes to store. This system is by far the most efficient and user friendly I have ever used. All my bikes are securely held and very easily removed for use. They allow you to swing the bikes to the side for more space, etc. I wish I had found them earlier. My only advise is that originally when installing the racks using their measurements, I found my rear tire about 3+ off the floor. This made it difficult for my children to put the bikes on and off. I lowered the mount so that the rear tire is only 1 off the floor and it is now extremely easy for even my 9 year old to use. Its actually harder for her to wheelie her bike to get it into position than it is to actually mount the bike in the rack.

> 3 dayThis is simple to install and the pivoting feature is why I got it. You will need to drill into the stud and screw in a lag bolt so if you don’t know what that means you might need help installing this

> 3 dayAn amazing product. The way the bike snugs against the wall, it utilizes the space extremely efficient. In the past, which ever way I stored the bicycle (plainly leaning it against the wall) it always seemed to take so much garage space. Now, I cant believe how little space it uses - where one bicycle fit in previously I can now fit two of them and to top it all the area visually seems pleasantly uncluttered. Removing / storing the bike is a snap too as opposed to my initial idea / concept of ceiling suspension which would have involved a winching system of some sort (read - additional clutter). Owing one only bicycle at the moment (I always felt there is not enough space in my garage for two so I always procrastinated the purchase of a second one), I actually bought two of these brackets with the peace of mind that I can now purchase the second bicycle (for my wife) and have ample storage space for it. Edited for clarity and mistakes.

> 3 dayVery well made, came with very heavy duty bolts...not sure that is needed unless your bike is made of lead..having said that...rather have too study than too flimsy. Getting the height right is a tad tricky...rear tire must be off the ground...but... not that hard... I mounted to wooden post in my garage, and it works outstanding!! I do wish you could lock it into place...as it does tend to move a bit when loading..but that is minor. Overall, really happy with it, does what I want...although I dont smile when loading my bike like in their videos... :-)

> 3 dayThese are so cool. My little kids can load and unload their bikes. They also save so much space in my garage. The swivel design allows me to fold them in and they are no wider than our shelves. The installation would have been easier if I had a socket wrench but was kinda tedious with traditional wrench. That was a necessary evil however as these racks are super bomber and never coming off the wall unintentionally. A little pricey relative to other options, but I do not regret my purchase. The space saving was well worth it.

> 3 dayWe recently moved into a new home, and I was looking for a way to efficiently store our familys six bicycles and get them off the garage floor. I spent several weeks reviewing the different systems out there but was surprised to find that not one of the typical racks or suspension systems fit in a way I wanted. On a lark, my wife googled bike storage systems or some such title and ran across a picture of this system. We dug into it further and were initially quite interested. But, never having seen or heard of it, I was a little skeptical. We kept researching, however, and found this product on Amazon. (Note: it did not come up in a SINGLE search of bike storage systems I put into the Amazon search window. When we found an article about it online, we clicked on a link to where one could purchase the product, which took us to Amazon. Subsequent Amazon searches for this product during the our research phase were fruitless unless we went BACK to the article or put the EXACT product name in the search window.) After reading the other reviews and considering the relatively reasonable price, we decided to jump in with both feet and ordered six. I could not have been more pleased! The product construction is solid and the mounting screws are incredibly substantial. (I mounted all of mine into studs to ensure that they were sturdy enough not to pull out of the wall.) In the end, the product works as advertised, and I COULD NOT BE MORE PLEASED. If faced with the same circumstance again, I would order these again in a heartbeat. (Note: Somewhere along the way, I read a review in which the reviewer stated that s/he mounted the racks on every other stud to allow ample room to articulate all the bikes on the row. I considered placing them closer together to preserve wall space but immediately recognized the wisdom of placing them a bit further apart. It does take up more wall space, but mounting them on an every-other-stud basis maximizes the effectiveness of this rack.)

> 3 dayThese work very well, easy to install and look kinda cool. I have one for a thin tire bike (the tri-bike) and one for a fat tire (4 inch tire) bike. The only issue i have is that the fat tire bike rack touches the wall which keeps the fat tire bike handle bar sticking 30+ inches from the wall. I will probably take it down and mount it hire so I dont have to remember to avoid it (Im 5-6 tall). I would defiantly recommend these. If I get more bikes, I will be getting more of these.
