Steadyrack Bike Rack - Wall Mounted Bike Storage Solution

This rack is fantastic. We are a very active cycling family- 9 bikes between 4 people. My wife and daughters are not particularly tall, so hanging bikes on the wall has always been a bit of a challenge, We had traditional bike hooks in the wall, but family members had difficulty hoisting the bike up into the hook. Additionally, if you need to move the bikes to one side or the other, inevitably the bike wheel turns sideways to the hook and things get messy from there. The result? Hooks bending spokes, bikes tangled up, and unhappy cyclists. When rennovating the garage, I bit the bullet and bought a bunch of these racks. WOW! What a difference!! We staggered the bikes (high/ low) to squeeze them close together. Bikes just roll onto the low racks from the floor- basically zero effort. To store a bike on the high rack still requires lifting, but its a lot easier to do- instead of having to capture the hook with the wheel, you just drop the wheel onto the rack. Much simpler! Perhaps the best feature is the ability to swing bikes from one side to the other. Unless you have a dedicated garage for your bikes, youre likely sharing space with cars and household stuff. Getting to the bike at the end of the row used to always cause problems for us. Now, we can just swing the other bikes out of the way and access whichever bike were after. Brilliant!! The photos attached are before and after shots. The before shot shows lots of wheel/ tire marks on the walls, and you can tell they dont always hit the hook they were after. Weve had the SteadyRacks installed for over 6 months, and theres nary a mark on the wall. Fantastic!!

Easy to install. Good value

Mounted mine next to my storage room door, tilt it in the front of my door out of the rain then If I need to go in I just move it to the right. Don’t think it was meant for the fat 29inch wheels but all I did was bend them open a little more to fit around the tire. Only issue is the bottom piece. I had to use a strap to hold the bottom tire to the mount so I can fully rotate it without the tire falling but other than that it worked perfect.

I like this rack very much, and it’s a perfect solution for holding my 39-pound vintage bicycle in my small condo. It’s easy to use, and swings far enough that the bicycle’s pedal is right up against the wall, so that is what determines how flat it can fold. I tried a couple of other products, but with this one I don’t have to lift that very heavy bicycle, and it is also held off the ground so that I can sweep underneath it and it doesn’t catch dust bunnies. However, I followed the instructions for measuring so that the bike would be 3 inches off the ground, and somehow it ended up only 1 inch off the ground. I’m not sure what happened there, but I didn’t realize this until after it was already installed, so I’m not gonna go back and drill a bunch more holes in my wall to raise it up another couple of inches. I was able to drill one of the bolts into a stud, and one had to go into drywall with an anchor, so make sure you pay attention to what surface you are drilling into. I think the only other thing I want to do is put a little bit of vinyl sheeting behind the lower tire support, to guard against any scuffs on my wall. That is what I have done with my other bikes where they are close to the wall. I will say that when I am putting the bike on the rack, if I don’t line up the front wheel exactly with the rack it will move side to side and make it hard to put the bike on. So just line it up properly, and it rolls right on and it’s held very securely. I did try rolling my mountain bike onto this, and it did work, and I think it would work with just about any bike except for one with exceptionally wide tires..

I dont usually bother leaving reviews, but I really appreciate good engineering. Weve been trying for years to find a decent bike storage solution. We got 4 racks and mounted on every other stud in the garage. Directions were clear. The only thing missing was drill bit size (1/4 if youre going into a stud). The first one took about 40 minutes to figure out. the rest took about 10 minutes apiece. Its easy to lift bikes on and off the lift, and the mount feels very sturdy. Bikes are off the floor and for the first time in a decade I can walk to the garage door without tripping. Happy customer.

This is the best solution for bike storage. It is sturdy and securely holds the bikes even without the lower back tire cup/guide. It was easy to install and is simple to use. Total bonus that they hinge such that 2 bikes can nestle closer taking up less space. The bikes also arent quite vertical as the wall is not uniform in thickness: thicker foundation wall at the bottom with frame/drywall above it. It still is secure. Our garage is pretty tight, and I have no concerns of a bike falling on the car parked nearby even if jostled or bumped.

Its hard to impress me and bike storage has frustrated me for years. Ive been through a few moderately expensive options. Having moved recently I was back in the market to try and solve the bike storage issue for our five bicycles, still wanting better than the old system I took with me. I wanted relatively easy installation. I wanted good quality. I wanted something that got the bicycles out of the way. I wanted a system that my wife and kids would actually use (this was the biggest problem). I have tried enough systems that didnt work (or not very well) so was finally willing to spend more because I was at the point of the bikes going or me going. If this is you, look no further. I bought five of these babies so quite a bill but I have no regrets five days in. This solves all these issues and now seems a bargain. Im giving my old reasonably well reviewed zero gravity style (bar on wall, foot on floor, four arms sticking out to hold two bicycles) to charity. Its rare for me to give such a glowing review. Ill update if my happiness level deteriorates since Im posting at five day mark. But, in those five days Ive only gotten happier. A few very minor nits: 1) The little covers for the bolts dont snap on/off very easily. Those could be better; 2) There are no instructions for how to space them for multiple bicycles. They should give some instruction (Others online wrote about 16 based on stud distance but happier at 32 despite all the space that takes up horizontally. My space allowed 22 spacing so I added studs to mount to which took more work but it works well at 22. I dont think 16 would work well and 32 is just too far apart. 24 probably the sweet spot); 3) The instructions are in metric so takes a little conversion (I found that mounting the bicycles so that the back tire is about 2 off the floor when hanging in the rack)

Installs super easy, does the job I need them to do flawlessly. Super bomber build quality. This is my favorite bike storage solution I’ve used this far in my lifetime of cycling. Can’t recommend these racks enough.

We 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.)

These racks really work well. I purchased 4 so that we could get our bikes off the floor and on a wall. I staggered them so I could get all the bikes in a smaller area. I would have given 4.5 stars if I could. The installation instructions are available, but I had to go to their website to find the spacing for installing multiple racks next to each other either in line or staggered like I installed them. That should be a simple 1-2 lines to indicate the spacing. Customers should not have to go online and search around their site to find it.
