NO MORE BIKE HOOKS - CHANGE THE WAY YOU STORE YOUR BICYCLE TODAY!
Bikes are awkward to store, that’s for sure. If you’re lacking floor space in your garage or home, don’t rely on bike hooks - vertical wall mount bike storage is your best option.
Unfortunately, most people immediately think this means bike hooks for mounting your bike on the wall. Wrong. Steadyrack is trying to revolutionize the misconceptions surrounding vertical bike hook storage by proving that bike hooks are not the only alternative to floor storage, and they downright suck. This is why - juggling your bike up into a hook is awkward. Using hooks is a generally unpleasant activity. When you've returned from a long ride the last thing you want to do is try fit that hook in between your wheel spokes, whilst holding it awkwardly above your head and getting tire marks on your walls. A Steadyrack involves no lifting, no juggling, and no awkward positioning - simply stand the bike up on its back wheel and roll it forwards into the Steadyrack.
Bikes can be heavy
Your average bike can weigh around 26lbs, which isn't a lot when you are riding it, or resting it up against a wall, but can be a lot when trying to lift it into a bike hook on a wall. Because of the lifting action bike hooks require, a lot of people struggle to use them. Steadyracks require no lifting.
Bike hooks do not carry much weight and bikes can be heavy!
Because most bike hanging hooks are made of plastic or a lightweight material, they carry very little weight. This means they don't hold heavier bikes like fat bikes, bikes with fenders, bikes with accessories, or eBikes. Steadyracks can carry an extraordinary amount of weight, up to 77lbs. Take our Fat Rack for example, which has even been tested under 220lbs loads and still works perfectly.
Bike hooks damage your rims
Most bike hooks for a wall sit between your wheel spokes and rest up against the rim. This places the majority of force on a very small section of your rims, causing damage. Other bike hooks rely on your bike frame for support, causing similar damage. The Steadyrack bike rack only comes into contact with your bike tires, making it the best solution for your bike.
Most bicycle hooks for the garage or wall are made of plastic or material that does not withstand time
Planning on hanging your bike outside? You probably shouldn't risk it with a bicycle hook since most hooks are manufactured using plastic and have a short life span when exposed to the elements for a long amount of time. You need something stronger.
Want to store your bike flat against the wall? Most other vertical bike hooks for the wall only place your bike 90 degrees against the wall. Steadyrack’s allow you to fold your bike almost completely flat against the wall with very little effort. This takes up less space and allows you to store more bikes in the one location.
Which Bike Stand Is Right for My Bike?
Our bicycle rack stands are easy to install in your garage or home and don’t require any heavy lifting, which means they’re safe to use. They also feature a unique 160-degree pivot which allows for accessibility in tight spaces and efficient storage, no matter where you install them.
Why a Steadyrack Bike Mount for Your Wall?
With Steadyrack’s wall mount bike storage racks, you’ll be able to free up precious space in your home or garage. Bicycles are large items when they’re horizontal, making them difficult to store. Storing your bike with a wall mount can help solve this problem. Getting your bike off the floor not only protects your bike by giving it a safe, dedicated space to be stored by its wheels (instead of its rims or spokes), but Steadyrack’s wall mount bicycle racks also free up your floor space for lots of other activities - just imagine what you could do in a garage or shed which had extra floor space to utilize for the other activities you enjoy.
The trouble with conventional bike wall mounts is that once installed, your bike still protrudes from the wall, not to mention the potential damage that can occur if the bike is bumped. With conventional bike rack systems for the wall, you must physically pick up and lift your bike into the wall mount. This is a cumbersome activity and potentially dangerous if someone doesn’t have the amount of strength required to lift the bike up. With Steadyrack’s design, the process is safer - there’s no lifting required as you can manoeuvre the bike onto the back tire and then simply push the bike into the wall rack.
Typical wall hanging bicycle racks are static; once the bike is in the rack it can’t move. Steadyrack’s mounted bike rack’s pivot 160-degrees, which means you can push your bike as close to the wall as your handlebars and pedals allow.
This also means you can fit more bikes into the same space whilst maintaining easy access and ensuring the safety of yourself and the surrounding bikes on the wall.
Almost any type of bike will fit in a Steadyrack. You’re sure to find one that will fit perfectly, with detailed information on how to choose the best rack for your bike. If you’ll be swapping the type of bike that is stored in a Steadyrack, opted for our Fat Rack or Mountain Bike Rack (MTB), as the wider arms will accommodate both large and small bikes, without compromising the space-saving and safety features.
