Review on Wall Mount Bicycle Rack For Garage - Qualward Bike Hanger Cycling Pedal Storage Stand. by Mdl Thurston

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great way to fit a lot of bikes in a small space

This is a great way for me to keep my "regular" bike at the ready and within easy reach, while still keeping my other bikes at the ready--but not in the way. I am now storing five bikes where I used to keep three. The hardware itself is well made. The rubber coating on the pedal hook seems very tough and durable. The wheel trays are a little short, but they do the job well enough. The screws and drywall anchors are actually better than typical Chinese fasteners. By that I mean that they are good enough to use for anchoring the wheels trays, if one pre-drills the holes for the drywall anchors. I made sure to mount the pedal brackets into wall studs with my own screws, since that is where the bike's weight is hanging. Another reviewer commented that these brackets are superior to other versions, because the screw holes in the pedal brackets are aligned vertically. I agree. If you can hit a stud, both screws will be biting into wood. I've had my regular bike in and out of the rack many times now, and it has become second nature to me. I have added a bungee around the pedal, to ensure that the bikes will stay in the brackets in the event of earthquake. This bracket set has allowed me to get the car into the garage, while still having easy access to my bike. Imagine that!
