First Impressions:-----------------The "Platinum Series Heavy-Duty Rubber Cradles" appear to be vinyl actually: this shouldn't affect anything but is worth mentioning. The cradles have a loose friction fit in plastic cups that slide freely along the adjustable arms. The adjusting knob is easy to use: engaging teeth provide defined stops but there is enough free play in the rack system that you should be able to find the right angle to accommodate your top tube.Construction is not Thule or Yakima-level but appears sturdy enough. I would feel better about it if the arms were seam welded to the back plate on all four sides - not just top and bottom. Better yet: bend the arms assembly from a single piece of tubing.Installation:-------------The most challenging part will be locating a wall stud. You can pretty much guess how to install this without reading the instructions, however they are clearly written. Note: the instructions specify using a "drill bit with a diameter half the size of the screw diameter." Doing so I had to apply so much torque that I could feel the screw heads start to strip. Consequently, I following the usual practice of using a drill bit with a diameter equivalent to the screw center (shaft less threads) and still had to soap the threads to get the screws in. I feel this is the best approach to take.Post-Installation Comments:---------------------------I could not find many solutions on the market for single-bike wall mount racks that adjust for angled top tubes. Overall for the price I was expecting something a bit more substantial but so far the rack is working well. I will however keep an eye on the welds so my bike doesn't come crashing down atop my car. I thought the vinyl cradles might fall out of the plastic cups when removing the bike but they have stayed in place. The rack arms take on a slight downward tilt under the weight of the bike (confirmed by my level) so I feared the mounting cradle/cup assemblies might creep and fall of the ends, but the weight actually holds them in place. Also, the looseness provides a self-adjusting function, shifting the cradles to the best points once you put the bike in place. Overall I am satisfied with this rack but would consider a sturdier-feeling alternative if one was available.

This past winter I bought a Gearup Gravity bike rack for storing my Trek mountain and hybrid bikes in my apartment. I was impressed by it's solid steel construction. So, when I needed to hang my new Trek road bike I knew immediately to whom to turn. The Gearup one-bike wall mount is the same heavy duty steel construction and mounts solidly to a wall stud. (Yes, it needs to be screwed into a stud...don't even try to hollow-wall mount it...that's NOT how it's meant to be used). My only problem was that, even with a pilot hole (which maybe wasn't big enough), my drill stripped one of the two phillips-head screws provided with the rack. Fortunately, I had a few 1/4" x 2" hex-head screws handy, so I used one of them in the upper hole of the rack instead (no stripping problems ratcheting hex-head screws with a socket wrench). I managed to drill in the other phillips-head screw without stripping it. Now, my bike rests nicely on the cantilevered arms. P.S. Another reviewer said that they couldn't hang their mountain bike from the rack. Well, I tested it with my Trek 6700 hardtail (20" frame) and it hangs just fine...so, I haven't the foggiest notion what their problem is.

I was hoping to find a wall mount that would allow me to compensate for the somewhat steep angle of my bikes top tube. Most wall mounts would not allow for any adjustments and those that did seemed to be rather large, cumbersome, or require the installation of a floor to ceiling post. In the end, this was the only option that suited me - at least on paper.Now that the mount has been installed for some time, I can say that I am very happy with my purchase. I was a bit concerned that the arms sagged a little when I hang my bike up, but I have not experienced any problems because of it. That said, the sagging is rather minor and should probably be expected - not because of poor design, but because of simple physics.I was also concerned that the weight of the bike might case the mounting base to press into the drywall - but it has not. I should point out that I have a somewhat heavy urban bike - not a lightweight road bike.This wall mount is great - and I would buy it again without any reservations.

Works really well for storing a bike in my utility closet in an out of the way spot. I just use snap toggles into my (steel) studs. It is cheap and very solid. I never trust the hardware that comes with these things. Use good long wood screws (wood studs) or toggle bolts (metal studs) or alligators (cinder block/brick/concrete) and this thing isn't going anywhere.

I would actually give it a 4.5. The only weakness is the plastic parts that rotate and engage to set the angle of the rack. If it had been made of metal I would have given it a 5.5 out of 5 rating. I have not had any problem yet and do not expect any since once you set the angle there is no need to change it unless you get another bicycle.

I use these mounts to hang my road bikes on the wall in my garage. I love them because they are sturdy, simple, and allow me to run a braided steel cable (behind the mount against the wall) to securely lock the bikes to their mount for added peace of mind. The angle of the mount is easily adjustable and the included mounting screws work well. Good deal too!

Works well. However hard to fit in full suspension frames. I have to use a seat to stem crossbar. If the arms were slimmer it would work better. Easy to mount.

The stand is more esthetically pleasing than it appears, and the pads holding the bike frame slide in and out so that you can push your bike against the wall if you choose. It was a snap to assemble, given that I had the proper tools, including a stud finder. It did not find it unduly unsteady: there is going to be some give because of the nature of the construction. I am not worried about my bike falling. Bottom line: good value for money.
