Description of 👋 HARKEN Anti-Drop One-Person Self-Leveling Material Handling Products, Shelves, and Racking Systems

COMPATIBLE WITH ANY BIKE: Designed to safely and easily store your bicycle while organizing your garage. Commonly used with Specialized, Trek, Giant, Cannondale, Scott, Yeti, Schwinn, Mongoose, but compatible with all brands. SAFEST HOIST DESIGN WITH ANTI-DROP SYSTEM: Self-locking cleat grips instantly to prevent accidental release if the rope is dropped. Patented system lifts the load evenly regardless of weight distribution, allowing the load to be stored against the garage ceiling for maximum clearance underneath. EASY ONE-PERSON OPERATION: Simply park underneath the installed hoist, secure the load, and lift. One person can have their bike stored or ready to ride in seconds. Pulley system creates a 2:1 mechanical advantage to reduce the force it takes to lift the load to the ceiling. AVAILABLE IN THREE LENGTHS: Choose from a 10, 12, or 16 foot model based on your floor-to-ceiling garage height. QUALITY MANUFACTURING WITH 5-YEAR WARRANTY: High quality stainless steel hardware and double braided rope provide durability. Ball bearing pulleys keep the system running smoothly. 60 years of innovation. Made in USA.

Easy installation, high quality!

This is a high quality, easy to install item. I've had several of the two bike hangers in the past and they were a lot more tiring to hang. With this device, all you have to do is find a bolt, drill a pilot hole, insert an anchor and run the rope. The mechanism works well and looks good. The only problem with the single point design is that the bike can sometimes rotate or not hang parallel to the wall. It doesn't really matter, but it might bother some.

Pros
  • AVAILABLE IN THREE LENGTHS: Choose from a 10', 12' or 16' length depending on your garage floor to ceiling height.
Cons
  • Older Dubious Purchase

Ideal for people who have more bikes than garage space

I really like cycling and have moved into an apartment right on the cycle path. It's good! But now I only have a 1 car garage for my 5 bikes and my car. These lifts are very useful for getting my bikes off the ground and making room for my car (as it has to be removed from the parking lot and put in the garage in winter). They were easy to install, just finding and drilling one hole per bike. The lift is durable and easy to use. I highly recommend. It's worth the premium for quality and ease of

Pros
  • EASY ONE-MAN OPERATION: Simply park under the built-in lift, secure the load and lift. One person can stow or ride their bike in seconds. The pulley system creates a 2:1 mechanical advantage to reduce the force required to lift a load to the ceiling.
Cons
  • A few little things

Ratchet wears FAST, poor customer service.

Update: Harken said they would send a replacement for the prematurely worn elevator. They were very enthusiastic about the customer care until I changed my review to reflect what I consider good customer service, then they suddenly lost interest and never sent a replacement. If you want an expensive elevator that is rarely used, this is a good choice. Otherwise, a tiny important part is made of soft material and wears out quickly, and you have to replace the entire lift at least once a season…

Pros
  • COMPATIBLE WITH ANY BIKE: Designed to store your bike safely and conveniently when organizing your garage. Commonly used with Specialized, Trek, Giant, Cannondale, Scott, Yeti, Schwinn, Mongoose but compatible with all brands.
Cons
  • Not sure
