DeltCycle Bike Storage Hoist: Auto-Locking Ceiling Rack & Hooks for Garage, 50 lb Capacity, Kayak Option, Hangers for Garage Ceiling up to 12 Ft Review

To make the bike big enough to walk under I had to secure it to the top of the roof and didn't have room to mount it. along the ridge. Since I had two mounting heights, I cut the pair of 2x4s I had left over to make relatively even mounting points. I assembled everything on the floor and attached it to the roof beam. It took a few hours to install but works great! My daughter can easily raise and lower the bike. (I think that's a quarter of the bike's weight, but I'm not entirely sure.) If you…

I used this on a kayak and it works great for that. He picks it up off the ground and lets me pick it up so I can easily walk under it and also drive cars under it. The problem occurs when you try to downgrade it. The line lock does not work when you try to lower the kayak. The same method works well on bikes, allowing you to get almost directly under the front reel/line retainer. Things like a kayak are so wide that you have to step out of the way to lower the kayak. The problem is that if you

I had to install four of these in the ceiling of my garage. Installation was pretty easy. Raising and lowering the wheels is a bit fiddly, but since I don't have to go to my wheels every day, I can live with that. For example, some of my bikes don't have footrests. So if the bike has front and rear hooks, holding the bike upright and keeping one hand on the rope, you quickly realize that you need two more hands (or a helper). . I've had the bike for about 2 months and no damage. The build…

I chose this hoist for two reasons. First, the mounting bolts align with the pulleys, making it easier to install the bolts into the carriers. Most other hoists have bolts on the sides of the pulleys, which I think makes it more likely that the bolts will end up on either side of the beams. Second, the hooks are more curved to ensure a better grip on the bike. As for the screws: I pre-drilled the holes according to the instructions and coated the threads with silicone grease, but the…

There are multiple products in this listing and this review is for the elevator. I don't usually write reviews that carefully. However, this product is great. Exactly as described, good value for money and easy to install. Completely free space in the garage. Once the ceiling joists were defined, I attached 1" thick planks across the full span where I wanted to hang the bikes. This was necessary because the joists ran perpendicular to how I wanted to hang the bikes. If the beams are in the same

Ordered one of these a few months ago after some concerns about some reviews. After installing and using it for about two months I just ordered a second one for another bike. Comments: As others have said, the rope that comes with the kit is not of very good quality. I have to replace it soon. On the other hand, they give you a lot of rope for the high ceiling in the garage. Our ceiling is about 10-1/2 feet and I have spare rope. Contrary to some of the comments I had no problems with the…
