Bike Stand by Racor

2008-05-30
This bike stand is easy to assemble. It is light enough to easily move around and heavy enough to hold the bikes securely without tipping or moving as the bikes are put in and out. I bought 2 of these units since we have 4 bikes to store and they fit side by side perfectly and still have enough space between them so the bikes are not colliding. The kids bikes are best loaded from the opposite side as shown in the instructions. Cleaned up the garage floor nicely!

exellent. great valvu. steardy.
the only con- is that it takes some time to assemble- other than that- I would buy more.

Does what it's supposed to.

Works perfectly fine for a 54cm road bike. Assembly was kind of a pain due to poor instructions, but other than that I have no complaints.

Horrible, Horrible and oh yeah, Horrible

Cheaply constructed, one of the vertical tubes had a smashed in end and another one of the vertical tubes I had to bend with my vise just to make it usable. This product proves the old adage, "You get what you pay for". I wished I would have spent a little more money and got a better bike stand. The stand is not sturdy at all and due to its lack of stability, the wheels that actually sit inside the stand have unnecessary stress placed on them. If you want something that's sturdy and made of at least decent quality, BUY SOMETHING ELSE!

Need to adjust for MTB Dics Brakes

Good product. Takes about 10 minutes to assemble. If you have a mountain bike or other with disc brakes, make sure you spread the outer wheel insert bars to provide enough spacing for the rotor. This took some effort to spread the center portion of the wheel slot bar. Do this prior to tightening the screws on the unit. Also, you can opt to take a dish towel and fold it, and them wrap it around the top portion of the wheel slot (where the tire touches the wheel slot) and use zip ties to keep the bike stable and secure without hitting the disc rotor. With slight modifications, the stand functions very well without touching the brake rotors. Overall decent bike stand. This unit holds my Gary Fisher HiFi Deluxe '08 and Trek Madone 5.2 '08 without issue (except listed above).

Poorly tooled

2008-07-23
This might be the most poorly tooled piece of junk I have ever purchased. Holes are not properly aligned, bolts are stripped, virtually nothing works as it should. It should be a pretty simple thing to put together, but because parts don't fit or don't work, it is incredibly frustrating. By using parts in ways other than how they were supposed to be used, I was able to get this to work for one bike, but only with a lot of effort and verbal expressions of frustration. Maybe I just got a bad unit, but I will certainly never buy this brand again.

Quick set-up, works great

This rack was easy to set up (<15 min) and is great for neatly storing bikes in an apartment. It holds our two road bikes, but in opposing directions so as to not have the two handlebars vying for the same space. Highly recommended!

Awesome Bicycle Racks

2008-07-07
If you are looking for a way to organize the bicycles in your home these are the way to go. These racks are very solid and hold the bicycles securely without worry of damage to the wheels. They were very easy to put together.

Hard to put together, but worth it.

2008-06-24
Working great for my bikes, came in the mail very quickly. Difficult to put together, one has to use a bit of "English" to get the parts to line up properly, but with two of us, we were able to put them together in about 20 minutes each.

A decent bike stand

2008-06-15
Pros: Compact and doesn't require wall installation. Easy to assemble. Does the job of holding bikes upright, outdoors in our very windy area.

Con: The stand is very lightweight and will stick to fat tires, which could add a couple of seconds to the removal of a mountain bike. To avoid this, I step on the base of the stand with one foot then pull the bike out. You might consider drilling the stand to the floor or filling its hollow base with sand or rocks.
