I kinda balked at the price but it’s totally worth it. Easy to install (didn’t have a 10mm drill but but just picked something slightly smaller than the bolt). Works great.
This is a well-designed mount that s very sturdy and versatile. I love the way the bikes will pivot when they are hanging to be able to get at them or things next to them easily. The only reason they don’t get 5 stars is that the instructions say to use a 10mm drill bit for mounting. This is necessary if mounting into masonry as that is the size needed for the inserts. I suppose you can use the inserts if you’re mounting into a stud or timber, but it weakens the wood and the holding power compared with using a smaller drill bit (5.5mm or 7/32) for the lag screw to go directly into the wood.
A little expensive BUT we’ll designed and built. Worth it.
Once you figure out the height you want them at it isn’t bad to hang the racks. I decided to use 2×6 boards for the big bracket and 2×4 for the bottom tire mount. Should have used 2×6 for tire bracket also because the screws are spaced apart and close to the edge of the board. Since used 2×6’s I went and bought 16 lag screws that are 1.5 inches long and put one in each hole for extra measure instead of using just 2 that they recommend.
Here are a couple things to look out for when hanging the brackets.
1) I am gonna swing my bikes to the left and you will see in one of my pics where I used my multi tool to cut 1 inch off the left side of that bottom tire bracket. So when you swing the bikes as far as they can go that plastic piece that sticks out hits your spokes. I didn’t want to risk bending spokes by the bikes getting bumped into or anything. Cutting the one side off does not hurt anything. If you cut both sides it may not secure the wheel as well is my guess.
Update: I spoke with Steady Rack and they said the bottom wheel is suppose to rest on the outside of the cup. So if your gonna swing your bike to the left then you would take the bottom wheel and place it on the left side outside of the cup and vise versa if you swing the bike to the right. So your wheel will be resting against the wall and the side of the plastic cup. This way nothing can touch your spokes. If you want to keep the wheel off of your wall then you could cut down the one side like I did to keep it in the cup so you don’t mar up your wall.
2) I had the bikes spaced 3 feet apart at first. Measuring from the top center hole on one rack to the other rack in the top center hole. The handlebars of the bike on the right would hit the other bike’s rim. They are now spaced 43 inches apart and do not hit as you can see in the pic.
3) The plastic pieces are finicky to get on. If you can get one side and the the middle 2 clips in lightly bump the other side with the bottom of a hammer handle to get it in. Little bit bit of a pain but they do go on.
I originally ordered the racks with fenders and sent them back. The front piece that holds the tire in is plastic versus metal like on the mountain bike racks. Seemed like a breaking point for me. So I ordered the mountain bike ones and I am removing the fenders from the bike. I noticed you have to be super careful not to scratch the rear wheel fender by putting the bike in and removing it. My back fender hit the concrete several times. So you will scrape it up.
The racks are pretty easy to get the bikes in and out of once mounted. They do swivel nice and easy. A few quirks I think but I do recommend the racks.
Perfect solution to store our bikes and create more space in our garage. Fairly simple installation; the covers that go over the bolts were a bit tricky to snap in place, but otherwise easy to install. We like that they swivel so you can tuck them closer to the wall. Sturdy material. Highly recommend.
Works great. Saves a lot of room easy to put the bike on and take off. I really like the fact that it swivels can move. The bikes very easily and works for electric mountain bikes.
Great storage solution that is strong and allowed for swinging tight against the wall.
Our 12 year old grandson installed it, with supervision- easy peasy
Easy to install, look fantastic. It was really easy to install with the directions they give you, and had it up in about 30 minutes. The tilt is farther than I thought (good thing) and i’m stoked on them.
100% happy with purchasing these. If you just watch the installation video that comes on a QR code in the instructions, it’s not that technical or difficult to install and use these. Just plan and measure ahead and you’ll be fine. Definitely got our money’s worth. Highly recommend these bike wall racks, especially for the pivot feature.
Wir haben etwas gesucht, dass platzsparend ist. So sind wir hier drauf gestoen. Gute Verarbeitung. Klasse ist auch, dass man es seitlich klappen kann. Wir haben den 2er Pack gekauft und ein einzelnes. Obwohl es von der gleichen Marke ist, ist die Wandhalterung frs Hinterrad etwas anders. Aber nicht so schlimm, dass ich fr das System einen Punkt abziehen wrde.
Wenn man mal den Trick raus hat um das Rad wieder von der Halterung zu nehmen ist es easy.
Wir wrden es immer wieder kaufen.
Die Steadyracks habe ich vor zwei Tagen installiert. Die Montagehhe war aufgrund der guten Anleitung schnell ermittelt und das Anbringen an die Wand fix erledigt.
Im Gebrauch erweist sich das Steadyrack ziemlich einfach.
Wenn man einmal den Dreh raus hat, gleitet das Vorderrad des MTB frmlich in den Halter und kommt ebenso einfach wieder heraus, ohne das Bike umstndlich anheben zu mssen.
Der Schwenkmechanismus funktioniert recht leichtgngig.
Wenn die Steadyracks meinen sehr guten ersten Eindruck nun noch langfristig in Punkto Haltbarkeit und Qualitt besttigen, dann reden wir hier von einem top Produkt.
Lediglich der Preis knnte fr das bisschen Material etwas besser” sein.
Kinda pricy, but these are exactly the kind of bike storage I was looking to install in my garage. Highly recommend
I have several bikes that were in the way in the garage. The Steady Rack is a great way to store bikes out of the way and use space efficiently. They are easy to assemble and built well and very easy to use. In anticipation of getting my son an adult size bike, I installed an extra mount and currently store his size 20 bike on a MTB Steady Rack.
I hung two bikes on my garage wall and it gave me more space
Die Montage war simpel, der Halter ist beraus robust. Das Schwenken nach links und rechts ist sehr platzsparend.
My wife and I have full suspension mountain e-bikes which are quite heavy. Steadyrack makes it easy to load and unload them. Love them, they work exactly as promised.
A bit of a challenge to get it at the right height. Once done easy to use if you can pull your bike up onto the back wheel only. Pivots so the bikes won’t stick out as far from the wall. You do generally have to move a couple of bikes if they are against the wall but a small price to pay for more room.
Have had this system in the past. Easy to mount and allows bikes to be positioned toward the wall at an angle which saves space in tight garage spaces.
Easy to install and the pivot feature is a huge differentiator. However, followed the instructions perfectly and the bracket for the rear tire just doesn’t make any sense when you swing the bike to the side as the tire will not say in the block.
Expensive, but worth it. Hands down the best space saving garage bike storage solution for bikes used daily.
A great rack for our E Bikes. Mounted a 2X12 to the studs and attached the rack to that. Measured so that when the bike is vertical we only had to lift them 1-2 inches to get them on the rack. Works like a champ! A little pricey ut you get what you pay for. Highly recommended.
I bought 4 of these racks, 2 of the larger ones for full suspension mountain bikes and 2 of the smaller racks for road bikes. I have a single car garage and needed to get the bikes out of the way in order to park the car in the garage. Easy to install overall, I just mounted 2×4″ studs to the wall then mounted these directly to the rack. Very easy to get the bikes in and swing it to the side. Pricey but it was well worth it.
Bought these along with another set for beach cruisers with fenders. The Mt. Bike version is definitely heavy duty and fits my 2.4″ knobby tires well without any hang ups that others mentioned. My installation varied a little from the instructions, but overall it was straight forward and should be easy for anyone with experience mounting heavy things to walls. I had to use 2×4’s to bridge the gap between two studs where I wanted to attach the rack. Overall it took about 30 minutes. Very happy with the design and function of these racks. They may be expensive, but they work great and nobody else sells anything like these.
Love the ease and functionality of these racks. They provide me with so much additional space in my garage. I highly recommend them.
This is one of those items that I have purchased without any regret. A tool that performs as hoped and designed for longevity.
Happy so far. Very simple idea to make bike mount rotatable, but for some reason not many manufacturers are using this idea. This mount works as advertised. It easily holds my road bike. Installation instructions are very clear, it took me 15 minutes to install it. The construction looks reliable, all parts that hold the bike weight are metal.
We bought two of these mountain bike racks to install in our garage about a month ago and installed them quickly thereafter. It took some time to configure how we wanted to store our two mountain bikes alongside our two road bikes (for which we bought the classic road bike version of this same rack). And then it took a learning curve to figure out how to install them, but once we got the first one installed, the other three were much faster to install.
We were so excited to hang up our bikes and see how easy it was to get our bikes off them! Road bikes had no problem and worked like a dream coming in and out of the rack and swiveling to the sides. Mountain bikes went IN and swiveled to the sides like a dream, but as soon as we tried to pull our mountain bikes OFF the rack – as if we were taking them to go for a ride, we could not budge them! We discovered the metal-loop-rack-tire-rest-thing was getting lodged in between the knobs of the tread on our mountain bike tires! It took one person pushing up on the tire and another person at the handlebars to get the bike off the rack! (By the way, the tires getting stuck were the Maxxis Minion DHF 29X2.50WT and Maxxis Dissector 29X2.40WT. So well within the parameters marketed by the company: Designed for bikes with: Wheel Diameter: 20” — 29”; Tire Width: 2.1”– 2.8”.) So we emailed the company directly and they had no immediate solution ideas for us.
We were bummed for a little bit until we came up with a DIY solution that kind of helped. We bought some half-inch funny pipe in the sprinkler-irrigation section of our local hardware store. Cut it down to size, split it open, and pried it onto the metal-loop-rack-tire-rest-thing (see pictures). That mostly solved it. The Maxxis Minion DHF 29X2.50WT still gets wedged on it, but we found if we just grab the tire and rim and pull, then it will roll off easily enough. Luckily, it seems to have fully solved the problem for the Maxxis Dissector 29X2.40WT wherein we can grab the handlebars and the tire rolls off easily enough.
So yeah, nice sturdy racks, little learning curve to install, little on the expensive side, had to solve a problem on our own, but overall we’re very happy with the racks compared to the bike organization we had before (which was just piling them up against each other against a wall. Boo.). We hope someone else finds this information helpful! Good luck.
Just tip the bike up on the rear tire and they roll right into the rack. Easy to use.
We love it it took my 11 year old daughter few mins to get a hang of how to mount and dismount her bike. Highly recommend!!
We needed a way to store bikes
We love these!
Let me start by saying I want more of these, but my wallet has frozen my bank accounts (and reminds me I want to build bikes too…). Alas. For my other 4 bikes in my garage I use the hoists and they’re fine (just slower and a bit inconvenient… but they’re $5 each.)
They’re well built. I’ve only folded them to the wall a handful of times because they’re almost always in use. Most of the time I just let them stay extended so I can roll my bike straight back in. You can stagger them to move them closer which is nice but you’ll still have to fight with some handlebars if you do that. Tilting is my favorite feature and lets me tilt the bikes to look at them quick for reference or to slide out of the way for me to access something nearby.
These racks are well made from heavy duty materials, would be a 5 star rating BUT a mountain bike tire with aggressive side knobs (e.g. Specialised Butcher 29 x 2.30 that is well within the published width limits for this rack) gets stuck and makes rolling the bike out next to impossible without an awkward lift and pull (largely defeating the purpose of the rack!). The space between each side knob slots into the stainless steel rods and holds the wheel in place a little too snugly making a difficult lift and pull. I solved the problem by making a wooden form that fits into the bottom of the Vee (actually more of a U) which holds the bike a couple of inches higher in the rack and the knobs clear of the rods (see photo). The wooden form is double sided and sandwiches a piece of plywood in the middle. I’m very happy with the subsequent function of this rack.
I got these racks when I moved to a house with a smaller garage. In the past I’d used the simple wall hooks. Simply put, these are the best out there. My wife was thrilled to be able to just roll her bike onto the rack and the ability to pivot them allowed me to rotate them into a corner and keep them out of the way until we needed them. The installation was very straightforward and all needed hardware is included. They aren’t inexpensive, but they are more than worth the price. We love them!
Really well made. Solid bars. Like the fact they are foldable. 2.8imch tyre will fit but it is tight.
Love the ease of installation and the fact the back rack swivels to allow you to move the bike closer to the wall.
My husband and I are in our 60s. We had purchased e-bikes and we wanted them as out of the way as possible when not in use. Our search for something that met our garage space issues didn’t go well. First we tried ceiling hooks but discovered our bikes were too heavy to be lifting them up that high. Then we bought an inexpensive double bike rack that attached to the wall. It was a bear to install but once done looked like it was just the ticketuntil we realized it was designed to accommodate “male” bikes only. Our bikes are step through.
But when I found these on Amazon I thought “this looks pretty good”. The racks themselves are very low profile. To load a bike we just set the height (per instructions) so we could leave the back tire on the floor and just roll the bike up onto the rack. No lifting!
The best part, though, is once you load it the bike swivels to the wall (either direction) and keeps it out of your way. Genius!
The rack was pretty easy to install. I used a studfinder to ensure it was going into solid wood. It would be helpful if they told you what size drill bit to use, rather than having to guess. I didn’t have a socket wrench so went to buy one. The directions say the bolts are 1/2″, but it takes a 13 mm socket.
My husband has an ebike and cannot get the bike unto the rack with the battery on it (too heavy). With the battery out, he is able to put it in the rack, but not easily. Hopefully, it’ll get easier with some practice.
These things are great. I resisted for a while because of the price but I’m glad I finally sucked it up and picked up a pair. Install is pretty, I did run into an issue where and electrical outlet was in the way of the rear wheel bracket in one spot.
Purchased a paid of these racks for our mountain bikes. Installation was easy and getting the bikes up and out of the rack is very simple. We didnt want anything overly complicated with pulleys or anything so these fit the bill perfectly. Highly recommend!
Very simple install. Would strongly recommend a hammer drill which will make quicker work of driving the lag screws into studs without much fuss. You’ll also want a good quality stud finder that will help you find the center of the studs. Only thing I could have done better is to vary the mount height a little more to allow the bikes to fold together a bit more when pivoting them to the wall. If you don’t stagger the mount height enough the handle bars will be aligned and prevent the bikes from folding quite as well. Otherwise these things are built like a tank and are easy to mount/in mount the bikes. Bout five of them and was able to mount on five consecutive studs. Takes up much less space in the garage. Very pleased.
Use for hanging mountain bikes on my wall. Installation was very easy. Super easy to load heavy mtn bikes. Swings to the side easily. Everything perfect, but the price demands it to.
Watching the you tube video made all the difference for the install.
I bought two and installed. Video makes it easy. I bought 2 more. All 4 bikes fit in an area for one on the floor. Totally awesome product. Well worth the money and sooo cool looking. Buy these. You won’t be disappointed.
Great, well engineered product with fast delivery. Nevertheless, expensive for what it is. It probably costs $10 to produce in China and the rest is price for IP and profit hence 4 stars instead of 5.
Highly recommend this to anyone looking to save space in your garage. Super sturdy, never have any doubt in my mind that the Steady Rack will hold my bike however long I need it to. Are there other methods to store your bike in your garage that cost less? Yes. Are they better than this one? No.
Great product . Just make sure you ensure that it is installed properly and it is just wonderful. Extra 5 year warranty when you register online with the company.
Really love that it can be swiveled 180 degrees and the Steadyrack can be minimized to be flush against the wall when not in use.
Will definitely recommend this product to friends.
Originally, I purchased only one of these racks, but once I saw how easy it was to install and the space that it saved, all the bikes went up on the wall. Great solution.
Extremely high quality and gets the job done… Still a bit pricey imo
We bought four of them for our family’s mountain bikes. The provided instructions for measuring using the floor worked great every time. Was able to set each rack up for the exact height needed for all our bikes. They were all mounted into a stud. We use the swinging feature of them often to get between the bikes to access the wall. I would gladly recommend these if someone was looking for a vertical-mount system.
This is a terrific bike rack. We have four bikes in our family, and the ability to fold them along the wall saves a tremendous amount of space; we can now get all four bikes into the space that one took before. It is easy to get our bikes into these racks as well. Highly recommended!
These were very easy to install and my kids can get their bikes up and down without assistance. Seriously the best bike racks. I also love the fact that they move them from one side to the other depending on what is needed. I highly recommend these.
This product was easy to install made from quality materials and sturdy. Save a lot of space where we put them great buy, definitely recommend.
Great hangers for the garage, easy to load your bike swing them out of the way
Throughout many years, I’ve had several types of bike storage units, including suspending them from garage ceiling. These are the best, hands down and although more expensive, worth it. Setup was relatively easy, read directions carefully before you start drilling to make sure rear tire is off the floor.
We ordered these bike racks from Cape Town, South Africa as there is nothing similar available here.
We are really pressed for space in our garage and so these are definitely the answer. To be honest, putting them up at just the right height was not as simple a task as described in the instructions or as seen in the video!! We employed a handy man to put them up and the first attempt was not correct as they were too high to just wheel the bike into the racks. We have ebikes which are heavy … We had them reinstalled and, although we can wheel the bikes into them, now the tyres rest on the floor and so it is difficult to angle the bikes and keep the tyre in the wall holder.
it was very easy to install. But… there is a learning curve to loading your bike on it. But once you get the hang of it it’s very easy. I’m female, 5’4″ and only 100 lbs. I struggled the first time I tried to load my bike on the rack. But I learned that when you tip your bike up on the back tire you have to hold the back brake. Once you get the bike raised up on the back tire then let go of the brake and roll the bike right onto the rack. And when you remove the bike from the rack hold the back brake again. Once the bike rolls off the rack then you let go of the brake, roll the bike back, hold the brake again and lower the front tire down. Now that I know that it’s a piece of cake. I love how the bike is off the ground and I can swing it out of the way and still get the car in the garage.
J’ai fix les supports dans ma remorque de transport . Magic!
Very solid mount, it even holds my heavy as a tank eMTB with 2.8″ wide tires with no discernible deflection. The tire does wedge itself in there a bit and takes a little more effort to pull the bike down but it is at the max width this mount is designed for. The narrower tire on my jump bike doesn’t have any problem. Now I need them to make a fat bike version for my Ice Cream Truck.
I tried a few options for ceiling or wall mounting. These are sturdy and easily swing bikes out of the way
The mtb one works for my mtb, hybrid and road bikes with no issue.
Exceptionally well designed and made. A quality product at a premium price.
I like the way I can file through all our bikes to get the right one without it getting hung up on any other like with other racks
Didn’t quite follow the installation instructions. They are designed to allow the back wheel to sit on the ground, I wanted to allow room for the bikes to grow so I held all the mounts level with the tires off the ground.
So far works well with my 2 e-bikes. Very well constructed product. Since both bikes weigh in excess of 50 lbs., be sure to locate and mount on wood beams behind my garage dry wall. Each back is securely supported. Although it works best with fender less front tire, I’m still able to mount even with my “fendered” front. I’ve been sure avoid damage to my fender.
simple, facile installer, soldie pour un vlo de montagne lectrique de 55 lbs.
We have 24″ to 29″ six mountain bikes. I grabbed 6 of these racks and have loved the ease of use. My 10 yr old can easily load/unload his bike, as can the rest of us.
Product is so worth it and is a huge space saver. Just find a stud and it is so simple.
I love how the bike can swivel from left to right taking up even less space. Great product!
This rack is pricey, yes, but imo is the best wall mount bike storage solution on the market.
Easy install, solid construction, fully functional, easy to use.
If you have a limited amount of space, being able to stagger, and angle the bikes makes storing them a piece of cake.
I had a very small space to work with to store my and my husband’s MTBs in our condo’s coat closet. I opted for these racks because of the great reviews and ease of installation.
Pros: super sturdy, good swivel, great resources on their website to help you decide how to hang them (I had to stagger because of the narrow space).
Cons: the anchors they include for the 1/2″ bolts to use in sheet rock or masonry are not great. I went ahead and used them because I was able to have at least one bolt screwed into the wood on top and bottom. If you pull the rack away from the wall (some resistance whenever you’re offloading your bike), the bolts come out of the wall slightly. I didn’t have much choice on where I mounted these (if I couldn’t line it up with a stud, I had to deal with sheet rock because of the small space to work with). But, I highly recommend you either 1) get your own wall anchors OR 2) Mount these where you can line them up with a stud. The actual construction of the rack is phenomenal, so if you can get the attachment to the wall tightly secured, you’re good as gold.
Overall, I recommend these racks.
Best bike racks ever. Very sturdy and the way it swivels is awesome.
These are awesome! I spaced them 32″ apart and mounted on every other stud so my 3 bikes can lay as flat as possible against the wall. I varied the mounting height of each unit just a bit so the handle bars can touch the wall. If they were all mounted at the same height, bars and seats would’ve collided. Recommend getting a second person to help install to maximize handle bar clearance and space savings if that’s a concern. I had mine in a pretty narrow room where floor space was at a premium.
Good racks but not economical. For the price should have a cable lock included.
Hubby got two of these for the garage and we love them! So easy to install and takes zero effort to get your bike up onto the rack. Great value.
I’ve had eight of these, all of them are fantastic
I got these after trying some cheaper ones that costed about half of what these cost. Just get these, don’t waste your time on some other garbage. Bikes cost thousands of dollars, invest a decent rack that will cost a fraction of your bike.
These racks are sweet. Save so much space!
I have a plus tire enduro/trail bike with 27.5 x 2.8 , fit no problem. Very pleased with this purchase.
Great to keep bikes in small space, very easy to get the (mountain) bikes in and out. Very happy so far.
These racks are so, so nice. I’m loving them, and regretting that I didn’t get them earlier. Only downside is my son’s small BMX bike (20″ wheels) doesn’t really fit–it works, but not as well as the rest of our bikes.
I bought this thinking I would receive the Classic Rack, but got the MTB rack instead. Luckily still fits my bikes.
Installation takes a bit of work but is not terrible. Does allow for compact storage of bikes and are well made. Best rack I have found.
Installed all three in about an hour. I do recommend a good stud finder to help center the fasteners to the studs. I offset the racks and installed them sixteen inches on center. Still pretty easy to install. Will take time to get use to removing and installing the bikes. If you are looking for the bikes to be flush you will need to remove a pedal and loosen the handle bars. The way I have them installed and leaving everything alone, the bikes stick out thirty six inches from the wall and sixty eight inches along the wall. Both mountain bikes have twenty nine inch rims.
From a woman’s perspective, they were easy to install! They work perfectly, exactly as expected. Worth the price.
I did a lot of shopping around and chose steadyrack- great choice.
Don’t waste time looking at other options. They are a little expensive, I bought 4, but if you have limited space and want to be able to fold them against a wall for even more space- buy these.
I had no choice but to mount in drywall so I used lag bolts and they worked great.
Missing some of the screws and anchors in both packages.
