I was sooooo nervous about putting our two full size mountain bikes on this rack but it held up like a champ! I have a small garage and no space for bikes, so I needed a good solution and I took a chance. The bikes are hanging over my car and I was so worried they wouldn't hold up that I left the car out of the garage for days to make sure it would hold up! It does! I've taken bikes there a few times, which is easy (aside from the weight of the bikes, it's a pain), and I had no problem getting it even a little bit off the wall. I love this solution and I highly recommend it!
