Steadyrack Bike Rack - Wall Mounted Bike Storage Solution

It came out of the box covered in what looked like mold but was actually corrosion. Since it doesnt affect the structural integrity of the rack, I went ahead and installed it. It wont be exposed to rain, since its inside the garage. It was easy to install, and with bum rotator cuffs its much easier to put the bike on this rack than on the ceiling hooks Ive been using. I suppose if someone was concerned about the corrosion they could use steel wool to polish the rack, but hey, its in the garage for petes sake. Not like its in the living room.

Once installed this product is excellent. The hardware is not great and none of the four racks I purchased came with instructions regarding the correct hole size for the plastic grommets used when not hitting a stud. Even when using a hole size small enough to have to hammer the plastic grommet in, the design is so poor the plastic will rotate instead of allowing you to tighten the bolt to a stop. The other aspect that is less than perfect is the silly clips that hold the top and bottom caps on. They are fragile and made of a hard plastic that breaks instead of bending. If you read your warranty, you will note that damage caused during installation or shipping is not covered. In my case I had one broken clip in shipping and one during installation. The cap still mounted but a better design or product material is needed at this price. With all that said, once mounted this rack is excellent. I have the racks spaced at 10 inches apart (254 MM) with every other rack about a 10” higher than either side. (Measure your bars, divide by 2, add an inch or more for clearance) Even with the additional height I am easily able to roll the bike onto the rack. The pivoting feature is excellent. I do not know of another way of getting four bikes into a tighter spot without risk of damage to any of them.

Followed the directions and the bike was way too high, readjusted and works very well. I like the swivel as well. would buy again.

I 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.

Bought these after doing lots of research. When I finally decided I wanted the bicycles off the floor with easy access, I decided on this brand primarily for ease of use and ability to swing the bicycles 90 degrees either side to minimize the protrusion into the garage space, which is being used for a car detailing business, a workshop, and an exercise area. I decided not to mount the racks directly on the 16OC studs because I wanted the bikes spaced about 12OC apart to maximize wall space. I spent more time planning and measuring than my husband and I spent installing the back boards and racks. I created templates and taped them to the wall to arrange how the back boards and racks would be mounted (see picture.) Then I cut and attached the back boards (2×4s) for each bike, which were all approximately the same size. I staggered the height of the racks so that the handle bars would clear each other and allow the bike to be mounted closer. I am very pleased with this purchase, and would purchase more if needed. I highly recommend! Oh and our 23 yo son said they were cool.

I looked into MANY other bike racks before I purchased the Steadyracks. These were the only ones I found that swivel and help save space and make it very easy to access the bikes. I needed something like this because my shed is 10 wide and my service door is directly in the middle (see picture). If I had a stationary rack the bikes would have stuck out into the middle of the doorway. I could have opted for something that I could hang the bikes on the wall above each other, but then I would have to pick up the entire bike and hoist it up 4 to get above the bike on the floor level, which is fine for me but not the other people in the household. Plus, I dont have enough wallspace to do that for four bikes. The Steadyrack solved all of my problems and make it super easy to access each bike by just swinging them a little to access the bike I need. (PS, please dont judge me by the messyness of my shed, LOL)

I hardly ever wright any reviews, but felt it was necessary after I installed these for my wife and I. As all, the older we get, the ease of use become very important and that was the main reason I purchased these bike racks. The bike racks main two purposes are space saving and ease of use. Well these accomplish both. They were very easy to install (wall stud installation) and I had all three bikes up in less than an our. I would recommend these for anyone who needs the extra space and does not want to have to lift the weight of the bike as with other types of bike racks.

Very sturdy, easy to install, takes little effort to load the bike. Best bike mount I have ever owned. I bought 2. I bought this mount as it swings to the side allowing me to keep 2 bikes and get them in and out with my car in a one car garage. You need to pay abstention to the position of the pedals prior to flopping them but is easy to do. Handlebars become the limiting factor on side travel. I would give 5 stars if the lower / rear mount retained the wheel when I flop the bikes to the wall. Works great when the bike is perpendicular to the wall but as you pull it to the side - the rear wheel pops out. Still works -- but my wall is covered with tire marks. Needs to be deeper!

Fits my Fat E-Bike tires (except*) and I am able to pivot the bike out of the way so I can pull the car into the garage. This bike mount appears to be beefy, so it can hold up my heavy electric mountain bike. I highly recommend following the directions and put those lag bolts into the wall studs directly or suffer the consequences. I used two 1x6 boards mounted into the wall studs on each end, with the bike rack screwed into those boards, using the supplied lag bolts. *(Exception: that plastic pivot piece for the rear tire, ahem, does NOT fit a fat tire. It’s not even close. See pic. I don’t know what the manufacturer was thinking by including that obviously narrow rear pivot mount. I didn’t bother to install it since it’s worthless.). I gave this mount 4 stars because of that narrow rear tire pivot piece. That plastic piece is a major disappointment for what appears to be an otherwise great product.

The removable cap/cover that you need to remove to install this is extremely tough to get off. The clips (on the main housing side) that holds to the cap can break and did in one area. Not happy but can live with it. The hinge are ultra stiff on my that makes it almost impossible to swivel. Slight loosening on one of the bolt helps dramatically. Otherwise it is a good solid unit.
