 A good product, but figuring out how to mount it is challenging. September 6, 2008
This product is everything it is claimed to be. Well made, finish is great, well designed, and delivered on time. It deserves a nearly perfect score. The only problem is, there should be better instructions for the layout, AND suggestions on how to handle ceiling mounting without studs close to the desired mounting area.
Fortunately I am reasonably good at pre-visualize practical clearance issues, and did well in solid geometry. Without those skills, it would have been a very difficult install. For example, how far away from a wall would they recommend mounting this, due to handlebar clearance issues? What about double mounting for 2 bikes? I had several re-mounts because I had guessed wrong on the latter.
Like I said, a great product, but be sure to think out actual fitment BEFORE you start mounting this. Plan on a few hours of work if your garage is pretty well packed, like mine. If you have a lot of open real estate, it's a breeze.
 storage saver September 6, 2008
After the headache of an install onto the ceiling of my garage (tall garage; drywall); these bike racks work wonders. I bought 2 after seeing a neighbor had a similar lift. Thinking it'd be good for our bikes I quickly got em and tried to install them (Note tried).
It took a little while to figure out the best way to get them onto the garage ceiling, though after the struggle in the install, I'm loving the space. They easily lift each bike smoothly and the lock mechanism is simple; just like a window blind. The rope so far has held up though is rough on the hands when sliding through your grip.
Overall, these bike lifts are great. They are well worth the hassle of installing them, and some may have an easier time with studs exposed in the garage.
Ceiling mounted bike lift September 3, 2008
I have not gotten this installed yet but it looks like a great gadget to get the bike up in my store room! I am pleased with the product and the time it took to get to me. I have seen these lifts in stores at a higher price so I am pleased with the amount I paid.
Simple and Affordable August 19, 2008
I thought I would just make a simple hoist myself, haha. I could make one but for twice the price. Do yourself a favor just buy this one. It works plain and simple.
THESE MOUNTS ROCK August 19, 2008
We bought 2. They were super easy to install and work wonderful in our garage. Best bike mounts we have ever had.
