Wallmaster Bike Ceiling Mount Lift Hoist Hanger Storage Rack for Garage Indoor 2 pack

Works Great; Best Way To Store Your Bike
This is one of the best ways to store your bike if you’re out of space in the garage. If you’re capable of installing it yourself, you can hang your bike close to the ceiling of your garage, up and out of the way so it doesn’t get damaged and you can use the space in your garage you don’t normally utilize. Overall installation took me about 2-3 hours since I had to build a way for the mounts to screw into the ceiling of my garage because of the way the 2×4’s are placed due to the build of my house. Build quality is really nice. I’ve used this bike mount multiple times now and haven’t had any issues with it. My bike has never slipped down or moved once it’s set. This is a great way to keep your garage organized. Since you can mount each mount whatever distance apart you need to, this bike mount can accommodate any size bike whether mountain or road. I use it for my Trek Top Fuel 9.3, hooking the handlebar and the back of the saddle to lift the bike into the air. Great product.

Worked But I Made a Few Modifications
The design, as purchased will work and you don’t have to make the mods I made…..but….I personally do not like to attach anything overhead that bears any significant weight using lag bolts through drywall to hit a ceiling joist. Never know for certain that you hit the center of the wood and have a strong, sound support Based upon the spacing of my joists (24″ centers) I also wanted to raise the bicycles up to a different location from the joist location. This also depends on the direction in which your joists run in the ceiling. My joists run perpendicular to the 2×6. I chose to attach 2×6’s over a span of 3 of my ceiling joists with several lag bolts and deck screws to be sure it was solid so I was confident in its load bearing capability and for general safety.First minor annoyance was that the brackets are too long for a standard 2×6. The attachment flanges hang over the edges of a 2×6 as you can see in the pictures. I used an angle bracket to attach the brackets to the 2×6. Guess if I used a 2×10 (because I believe a 2×8 would not have sufficient wood attachment area at the edges) it would have been ok… know that a 2×10 costs more and is overkill for the weight of a bicycle…..Second minor annoyance is the height of the hooks from the ceiling. I chose to remove the “Y” yoke from between the hooks and installed an aluminum “L” piece to shorten the distance of the hooks from the pulleys. This allows the bicycle to be raised up much closer to the ceiling giving me more head clearance beneath the bike when it’s raised.Third minor annoyance was the bend in the hooks. It’s simply insufficient to safely lift and hold onto the back of the seats on my bicycles (I made two of these lifts). Had to put the hooks into my bench vise and bend them so they securely grabbed onto the back bottom of my bicycle seats and did not slip off when I raised or lowered the bike. The standard bends in the hooks worked fine for the handlebars.Fourth minor annoyance was that one of the hoist hangers was bent upon removal from the box and the safety rope stop did not work. I bent it back and it works properly now.Last minor issue is the rope itself. Yes, it does work, but its cheap and of low quality so if you use the hoist frequently you will be replacing the rope sooner than you might expect. I will only be using the hoists and rope for winter storage so I am not too concerned about the rope wearing out.Gotta say though, for the money, and if you wish to live with the standard design, it works well for what it is and will save you garage floor space. It’s easy to use, and the pulley design reduces the weight of the bicycle to a little over a quarter of its ground weight. I would however, strongly recommend that you bend the hooks that grasp under the seat to be sure they grab firmly. I gave it 4 stars because it does perform it’s intended function, it is cost effective (until you do what I did…:)) but not 5 for the reasons stated.

Awesome storage!
I am blessed with 11’ ceilings in my garage. When it came to storing bikes for the winter, there was no way I was going to carry a bike up a ladder to hook into the old fashioned hooks your grandpa used to use. I found this clever gadget on Amazon!So, I followed other reviews and mounted the pulleys to a 2×4 and then mounted the 2×4 to the ceiling. As a guy who overdoes things, I anchored the 2×4 with lag screws. It was reasonable amount of time for assembly, and the directions were well-written.It is easy to use, made of quality parts, assembled easily and works for any size bikes. With my high ceilings, I can raise the bikes to the ceiling and walk under them without hitting my head.Great product and sold my neighbors on a few sets as well!

Easy to install and did not take too much effort to hoist a 55 pound ebike. I like the automatic brake on the lifting cable that kicks in when you release the cable adjust your grip
