Review on 🚲 Allen Sports Black Wall Mounted Bike Storage Rack, Model 201B by Bill Russett

Revainrating 3 out of 5

FIRMLY fits 2 adult bikes

Managed to fit 2 mountain bikes (a Gary Fisher for men, a Liv Giant for women) to the wall mount, albeit very tightly. Try different combinations and configurations to see why it works for you. In the end we decided to only leave one bike on the rack and one on the floor. Putting a second bike on a luggage rack is not easy. Too much time and energy wasted. In addition, there is no relief between the two motorcycles. Literally right next to each other. Pedals get tangled, cables/wires are crushed. Ideal for an adult bike. MUST NOT be called "2 Bike Storage Rack". More like "1 bike (2 bikes if you're lucky) storage bike". However, as they say, you can fit 2 adult bikes. It's better if you have exposed studs (like a garage without drywall). This can give you a depth of 3.5 inches (if you have 2x4 studs) behind the wall mount so you can fit the handlebar portion of your bike between the studs. Hope. You can imagine. The one screw that comes with the bracket is made out of pretty poor metal. If you're not very careful you could snap the head off if you drill too fast. I ended up with my own screw. Overall a solid wall mount, easy to use and attach to the wall. Haven't damaged the bikes in any way. yet.

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • Not bad, but...
