I needed to find a piece of wood to attach the rack to and attach that to my ceiling. Then I had to hammer the hooks so that the seat would not fall off half way to the roof. Since it was hairy getting the darned thing up I haven’t had the guts to take it down. My poor bike has cobwebs! I wouldn’t recommend this product.

I would not wish this product on an enemy. It was a nightmare to install. I have a horrible kink in my neck and a headache. I would compare this project to Michaelango painting the Sisteen Chapel but at least he was able to lay on his back. The brackets weigh a pound a piece and there is no simple way to install. They kept falling on my head. I tried pre drilling the holes, but how can a person try to screw in a screw while also holding this one pound bracket straight. Then the screws are like boars tusks and would have punched into my upstairs bedroom. I finished up using some nails and small screws. Nightmare to install. Not worth the cost or distress.

It can lift your bike to the ceiling and lock it in place for simple storage.

I am keeping my bike in my bedroom where I have no floorspace to spare so I am going to have to look up at this every night. This is not the lowest priced option. I have seen $12.99 for other brands.

Like others have experienced, the cords fall apart. A better solution is to buy two large hooks that screw into the ceiling studs, and hang the bike upside down by the rims. There are hooks that have rubber covers and do a better job than the Racor lift.
