> 24 hourVery 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... :-)

> 24 houreasy ti install and saves me space. I swing the rack to the side and I wish that there was a way to lock it in the position I needed it to stay in.

> 24 hourThe Steadyrack holds the bike securely and it allows me to sweep under the tires without moving the bike. If I need more room to do something on one side of the bike/rack I simply swing it to the other side. My rack is hung at the back corner of my truck so if I need to carry something a little larger around my truck I simply swing my bike the opposite way. It works great. I always back my truck into the garage. I was missing a lag screw in my packaging when it arrived. A quick visit to Home Depot and $0.45 later I was all fastened to the wall. The box arrived ripped open on one end and the internal cardboard was also ripped. The plastic ziploc bag was open as well. Still annoying, but I cannot fault Steadtrack 100% for it not knowing what happened during shipping.

> 24 hourI have been looking for a bike rack that can support my wifes new e-bike and help save space in the garage. My wife and I stumbled upon this rack during a recent trip and we bought two for our bikes (we have three). After installing the two we bought (the store only had two in stock) we were so pleased we decided to buy the third on Amazon. We now have all three bikes hanging in the garage in the space that one bike would take up. Super easy to install, saves space and is easy to load and unload the bikes; even the heavier e-bike. I highly recommend this rack.

> 24 hourI love finally having a solution to keep my 2 bike neatly up against the wall... Im using a classic model for both a road and mountain bike I havent seen another solution that allows you to easily load and then fold the bikes in so its a great design! Im taking away a star because of the plastic body and rear wheel support - you would expect metal at this price although the construction of the rack itself seems very well made ...also, as other reviewers have mentioned, the rear wheel support doesnt really secure the tire. If you swing the bike on its hinge too quickly the rear wheel pops out. Still recommended but its hard to justify the price.

> 24 hourSpent a lot of time researching and testing bike storage systems... couldnt be happier with these. They cost a lot compared to rubber-coated hooks. But, unlike that cheap option, these are rock-solid, dont scrape your rims and make loading and unloading your bike as easy as rolling it. Additionally, the ability to swing the bikes allowed me to mount them 16 apart (perfect for attaching to studs), even mountain bikes with really wide handlebars. The only gripe I have is with the installation instructions. The method for calculating the mounting height is *way* off, especially for bikes with large tires. I had to add 2.5 inches for my mountain bikes and 1.5 inches for my dual sports with road tires. For bikes with big tires, it is extremely important that the rear tire not be touching the ground, or your bike will roll off the rack. Pros - Super compact storage due to swinging mount - Unbelievably easy to roll on and off... no lifting at all - Rock-solid construction - Feels like its worth more than it cost (and it aint cheap!) - Looks like they belong in a pro bike shop or the lobby of a trendy Silicon Valley start up - All hardware included, even for concrete and masonry walls Cons - Installation instructions may only be for road bikes, so your mileage may vary - Seriously, thats it

> 24 hourI bought this about 2 months ago I think and have had my bike pulled in and out of it a ton of times but still it’s holding really well. Now one thing to note is that this product is advertised as being able to be installed anywhere but in reality it’s best to instal on a wall stud to insure it won’t fall especially if it’s for a heavy mountain bike like mine. The arm easily swings the bike with a light push and shows no signs of strain. The bottom tire holder isn’t perfectly fitting for the tires I have on however that’s not too big of a problem for me. Overall great product that is really underpriced.

> 24 hourI spent a lot of time researching vertical wall mounts before purchasing the SteadyRack. My main focus was to find something that was easy enough for my daughter and wife to use, as they were unable to take their bikes off the wall or put them back up for that matter using the standard hook type solution that is sold by most big chain hardware stores. Im very happy with this solution so far, my wife and daughter can now get their bike off the wall, and put them back. The fact that you can swivel the mount side to side is a nice touch, as you can move other bikes out of the way when dealing with your bike. Obviously these are much more expensive than a hook, however, if your the type that appreciates simplicity and flexibility, you wont be disappointed. I ended up mounting three bikes on the wall, I ended up putting 16 between each SteadyRack, I mounted the middle bike (mine) about 7-8 inches higher than the other two so that the handlebars would not interfere with each other, keeping in the mind that the two on the end would be easier to get up and down for my wife and daughter (lower to floor). I left room on the left and right side, so the bikes on the end can be swiveled out the way if needed. I did not use the mounting bolts that came with the kit, as the studs did not line up in my preferred location, I purchased 75 pound drywall screw kit, I used 3 of the 4 mounting holes on the top and bottom, I suppose you could use all 4 mounting spots if you wanted, however, it seems very secure using the top 3 for me. Follow the install instructions for height off the ground, as you dont want to mount it to high off the ground or it will be harder for your wife and kids to deal with their bikes. Hope this helps. Great product !!!

> 24 hourI was hesitant at first by the price because I needed 2. But after the easy install and ease of use, I couldn’t be more than happy to recommend this to everyone that wants a vertical rack that also saves space. Just do it, pull the trigger and buy this rack, you won’t regret it.

> 24 hourI found these not so easy to install but I had to deal with thin condo walls and a stud that was not easy to find. Overall this product is very good. After searching for something to get my bike off the floor in my condo and swing out of the way when my second bedroom Murphy bed needed to be used I was so happy to find this product. The hardware is very sturdy. The plastic caps are strong. It works perfectly. I did wish the swing out of the way allowed the tire to be in a grub on left and right side @ - their solution is to float the tire on the left or right side of the bottom cap. But it does work great. I give it a overall 5 as its my fault the install was hard. Online video instructions helped a lot.
