Bike Lift

This is a nice, sturdy bike lift. It didnt get 5 stars because it was missing some of the washers so we had to go buy some.

Easy installation, does the job intended. One negative > The rope is too short for a 10 foot ceiling. Bike does not reach the floor with rope fully extended. You have to lift it off the hooks before it touches the floor

Works well

Bought this product after reading reviews online. So far so good. It seems very sturdy. We mounted it to the ceiling of our garage, along a stud. It wasnt too difficult to put up and I dont feel like it will fall down. Weve pulled the bikes up and down a few times and it seems pretty easy to work. The rope is really long which is nice b/c we have really tall ceilings in our garage. It was more expensive than some cheapers ones we saw, but seemed the sturdiest and had good reviews here. No complaints.

Best Bike Hoist on the Market

by: andrewmountain On: 2006-10-16

I have tried almost all bike hoists on the market. The Racor is the cheapest at $21 and it works fine, but feels and looks budget. The other brands have similar design to the Racor but cost more and really dont work any better (some say they can lift more weight, but they have the same mechanical advantage as the Racor at 4:1 -- so anything more than about 80lb is really too hard to lift anyway). The Kettler Spezi has a unique design. It is around $50 but it feels good, works smoothly, and has the best locking mechanism. If you must have quality, buy the Kettler.
