Can I hang a bike on the wall with one of these?

I believe you could but you should make sure that the unit is attached directly to a wall stud or if not that the anchor and wall material will support the weight of the bike.

Should definitely work, but the two arms may be a bit too close if you want a balanced two-point support, not perfect for single point hang. The previous answer's tip on stud is a good one.

It works to hang it high. You just have to be able to lift/push the bike that high to get it on the hook. A bike is pretty tall when stood upright, so keep that in mind when placing the hook/rail.

No, not meant to hang that way-- will tip over. The hooks hold the bike by its frame- top bar. You can stack 2 bikes, but horizontal.

I guess if u have a higher cieling and lighter bikes (35lbs max of each bike) but I suggest just get 2 of these and put it against the wall and hang your 4bikes in twos and u will appreciate it.

It depends on the width of the handlebars. I actually mounted a piece of wood on the wall to span the distance of a few studs, as to not have the positioning of the studs dictate the spacing of the brackets. The you can mount the brackets whichever distance you want from each other, and not sacrifice support.

I don't see why not. If you know how to mount it on the back somehow. The only problem is that It'll be heavier to hang.

Yes, but only if you mount it on the top of the frame so it's hanging down. It depends on how large the bike is as well.

I suppose you could. If memory serves, i secured mine so that the back frame was anchored to the wall using those fasteners that are designed with the spring loaded

Yes - you can hang it on the wall. Mine is sitting on the counter, but the plastic rack which allows the base to sit on the counter folds up flat and then you can hang it on the wall.

I hang my bikes by the front wheel with the back wheel resting against the wall. The force on the back wheel tends to keep the bike steady, but it would swing if you pushed it hard enough to one side.

I do not know how you would safely hang them on the wall . I did stack 2 and secured them to a wall.

Yes, but I would not because of the weight and stability issues. In fact, I used three "L" brackets to secure the rack to the wall to ensure it does not move.

May work; I'd recommend a stud mount, though to avoid any risk of pulling out your drywall. Also, depends on how thick your drywall is (1/2" vs 3/4"). With my bike (about 28lbs), I have the rear wheel resting on a cinder block so that there's no pull on the wall at all. Hope this helps.

Hello, you may clamp it anywhere it will hold. But mainly to the Bike Frame. Thank you

Dear Jill, you cannot hang it on the wall, per se., but you can screw it to the wall using red rawl plugs ( 6mm.) or mount it on a wooden base /plaque and then hangthe base on a wall nail locating on a hole drilled into the back of the wooden base. Kind regards Andy

I would hang it higher so the bike is completely off the floor. This way you have more wiggle room when you try to hang up your bike. Also, since every bike's size dimension is different, you won't have to worry if you want to hang a different bike in the future. I would just hang it where it is comfortable for you to hang your bike, leaving a few inches at the bottom.

I don't see why it couldn't. The bikes no matter what kind are held up in this setup at least typically by the front tire. I think this mount is also weighted for up to 50 pounds. So you'd have to get some good screws, and find a stud within the wall. But yes, mens.. womens.. childrens bikes should be fine all around, within the constraints.
