This bike lift appears to be of great quality and works great! Installation was not very difficult (but make sure you have a good stud finder or some other way of making sure the screws are drilled in the center of the 2X4's), and raising and lowering the bike is even easier!The pulley system helps distribute the weight in such a way that it is not as hard as you would think lifting or lowering a 40 pound mountain bike. It feels like it about cuts the weight in half.There is also a catch on the end of the pulley so that even if you let go of the rope, the bike stays where it's at rather than crashes to the ground! The catch works so well, it almost seems that the rope-tie thing mounted to the wall is redundant (but redundancy never hurt anyone right?, and plus it gets the rope out of the way).The way the catch works is somewhat like vertical blinds. If you pull straight down or towards the wall mounted rope-tie thing, it will only raise the bike and won't lower them. You have to pull the rope back the other direction away from the wall to release the catch, and then keep the rope at that angle while lowering the bike.It really works great. My wife and I bought two of them for our bikes and love them! If you're worried about whether the hood of your vehicle will fit underneath the raised bikes, measure how tall your bike is and then add about 10 inches or so to tell you how low they will hang from the ceiling (the handle bars/seat of our bikes are around 8-10 inches from the ceiling when fully raised).Overall, this lift is very well made, easy to use, saves tons of space, and is a great deal! Solid five stars!

I got two of these and both my wife and I really like the way these work for our MTB's. They make it easy to raise and lower the bikes in a very secure manner.One reviewer I read before I purchased these mentioned the "hooks" are not hooks but "L" shaped, bent metal (rubber coated) bike connection objects. He mentioned his bike fell off the lift because of this lack of "hookness".The bike connection objects I got were indeed "hooks" but they do have a pretty flat angle in the "hook". Think an 80 degree angle instead of a 90 degree as an "L" will have. We find these "hooks" to work very well and we have had zero issues with the bikes coming off the "hooks" even after many uses.My only negative comment relates to the installation instructions. They suggest you drill a pilot hole into the wooden stud using a 1/8" drill bit to guide the mounting screws.The screws they supply are MUCH bigger around than 1/8". With a power driver, these screws and the 1/8" pilot hole make it is nearly impossible to bottom the screws into the stud. They get within about 1/2" of bottoming and just stop.I almost rounded the screw heads as the driver bit was jumping out of the the screw head even when I was really bearing down on the drill to hold the driver bit in the screw head. I have to think I was putting well over 75 pounds of pressure onto the drill and the screws would not bottom.I backed the screws out and re-drilled the pilot holes using a 5/32" drill bit and this worked much better. I still got a very firm, very secure bite as the screws entered and bottomed in the wooden stud and the force required to keep the driver bit in the screw head is much more reasonable.In all other ways the instruction were straight forward and easy to follow.

When you run out of ground space in the garage, the only answer is to go up! This lift suspends your bike from the ceiling and allows for easy mount/dismount. It is essentially two ceiling mounts, two pulleys, and a two "fingers" that grab on to your handlebars and back of the seat. The pulleys make lifting the bike 25% as hard as it would otherwise be. In summary, the 2016 version of this lift is relatively well-made and a really good deal at the price point of ~$16 shipped. For what it is designed for, your average bicycle, it does the job.Rather than reiterate what other people have said, I will provide you with my tips and comments on common complaints.QUALITY COMMENTS:Previous reviews mentioned the rope easily fraying: I could see that happening after very frequent and long-term use. The brake grabs at the rope like the cord on window blinds, and it also runs through a (metal) hole near the brake which could wear on it. The 2016 version at least seems to be better than older reviews indicate. When in doubt, just pick up a 3/16" replacement at the hardware store.Others commented on build quality. The metal is certainly sturdy enough for 50 lbs bikes, which is what it is rated for. I wouldn't go more than that. It is on the thinner side and I easily deflected the support slightly while screwing it in too tight. The screws seemed plenty strong.To the "fingers" that attach to the bike, they are probably 85 degrees from vertical. They have a rubber coating which grabs well. If you mount the pulleys directly vertical from the attachment points, you shouldn't have a problem unless someone goes to town hitting the bike while suspended (i.e. a ladder bumps it several feet). You can always physically tie the bike to the pulley mechanism for added safety.I haven't had a problem with the bike raising/lowering unevenly, even when mounting a tandem add-on which was back-heavy (no front-tire). No problems with the brake either.INSTALLATION TIPS:Installation took me a few hours to hang 3 lifts on a 13 ft ceiling.The provided rope is 50 ft long. To calculate how much you need, take the ceiling height times 4, add another foot for routing around the pulleys, and add the distance between the attachment points - usually the back of the seat and center of the handle bars. For a 12 ft ceiling, you're good. For a 13 ft as in my case, it will work with a full-size bike and tall person, but you'll have to lift up a shorter kids bike since it won't reach low enough. For anything else, go out and buy a longer, good quality 3/16" wide rope.For attachment to the ceiling, it must be attached to a ceiling beam - don't even think about drywall anchors. Getting the spacing between the pulleys is critical - it must be directly above the attachment points on the bike. Too far apart or too close and the "fingers" will be at an angle and may not grab strongly enough. That means you'll need to remount them to the ceiling if you switch from a kids bike to an adult bike, or vice versa. I'd recommend screwing the pulleys to a 3ft 2x4 board or 3/4" plywood, and affixing the board itself to the ceiling. Then you can easily dismount/remount the pulleys to the board instead the ceiling. That also gives you lee-way if the desired mount point isn't directly on a beam.For cases where you are mounting parallel with the beams but in between two of them, you can make an capital "I" shape: span a board perpendicular between the two beams on the front and rear of the bike. Then attach the main board in the center between the two of them in parallel with the beams.For cases where you are mounting perpendicular to the beams, use the same board technique - just attach it at the beams where it crosses (at least 2).For mounting two bikes, allow at least 1 ft between bikes and face them opposite directions. You can go with a square shape for this case: a board at the back and front like before, but instead of one long board in the center, go with two long boards. I mounted two kids bikes to one beam successfully with this configuration.Each ceiling mount has points for (4) #10 screws. The ones included seem strong enough, but only 6 are provided (2 per pulley, plus 2 for cleat). I added more for added sturdiness and stole the 2 from the cleat (all the same size).When the bike is down you won't have a lot of rope, but when it is up you'll have a ton (depending on ceiling height). The rope cleat should attach to the wall so it is above heads and out of the way.Both pulleys must be weighted-down to work. If you're trying to hang two bikes with one package...you could, but it would be difficult to lift and hang both at the same time. Plus be wary of the 50lb limit.

prodcuto de calidad , llega super rapido el mejor precio de otras paginas, facil de armar e instalar, a mis amigos.

Easy to fit and easy to use.

Fácil de Instalar y muy practico para aprovechar espacios, la cuerda esta lo suficientemente larga como para colocarla en techos altos.

Not very well engineered; it does the job, but I could have constructed a much better device by buying pulleys and ropes from the web and from my local builder's merchants - and for less money! I shall be replacing the rope with something more substantial - I don't trust it to hold my bike airborne for weeks at a time! £30+ is a lot to pay for this - probably worth about half that.(note added after ~6 months use): i replaced the rope wiht sashcord from my builders merchant - much betterBut the pulleys have a lot of play on their axles, and the cord sometimes gets trapped between the pully wheel and the housing. NO excuse for this - they should be better engineered.
