Editorial Review :

There's no such thing as not enough room for another bike. Store your bikes overhead and out of the way. Smooth pulleys and latches make lifting even heavy bikes super easy. The exclusive rope locking mechanism prevents unwanted release and can suspend one bike - 55 lb. load limit. Please note, you can mount this item as pictured on a 2 x 4 and screw the 2 X 4 to the joist or mount it right to the joist itself. The hoist is built with thick rope for a better look and feel. Lifetime warranty.

Rad Bike Hoist

This product was easy to install. I had it installed in about 15 minutes. Its easy to use. My eight year old raises and lowers his bike with ease. As fas as looks, its great because we don't even hardly notice it up at the ceiling.

What's Not To Like!

Product is just as described. Works great. Great price too. What's not to like. Pretty simple, actually. Pulleys, hooks and rope. Not much can go wrong.

Good product, good price, is exactly what I needed

The product was exactly what I needed. Purchased three of the same to lift bikes out of the way. Better price then local stores. I have 12' ceilings in my garage and so these get the bike's completely out of the way. After measuring and finding stud's, I determined the best mounting would be to put a 1 x 4 against the ceiling sheet rock. This made it very easy to measure and attach the lift system to the board on the ground first, then I mounted the board the the ceiling. I'm guessing it took me about 30 minutes to do the first one and then about 15 minutes each for the others. The long cord worked out great for me, I didn't need to trim anything.

The pulley system isn't a fast lifting system. I take my time lifting it up and down but it requires little effort. It's clean, easy to use and the right price. Well worth it.

great space saver

purchased this for half the price of the exact same hoist I bought at sports chalet! I raised our 2 beach cruiser bikes up to the ceiling and you hardly know they are there.

Poor Execution

Beware, the RAD and Racor bike ceiling mounts have minor important differences. Previously I had purchased a Racor, and I thought I was buying the same bike mount when I bought the RAD. The main important difference is the hooks. The RAD's hooks are "L" shaped; they're not "J" shaped like those in the illustration advertising the product. The RAD's hooks are also rivited onto the pully assemble and the tension cannot be adjusted. The rubber coating on the RAD's hooks is also short; it only comes up about 1/2" after the turn.

If you're looking for a bike mount, the Racor is also cheaply made, but it's certainly better than the RAD for only a couple of dollars more.

Just what I wanted.

Looks good. It's very sturdy. It does what it's supposed to. Great for storage and super easy to assemble. Price is right.

Great value for storage

I am very pleased with this purchase. The shipment (I ordered two units) was delivered in two days, and came in perfect condition. Some previous reviews mentioned they were broken on delivery, but the Sterilite boxes were inside another box so were well protected. The shelves are much more sturdy than I expected. For this price, I actually expected flimsier plastic, but they really are "heavy duty". They are also extremely easy to assemble, I had no problem fitting the pieces together with my bare hands and a little elbow grease. The first unit is already built and full of boxes within half an hour of delivery. I will probably purchase more of these in the future.

Perfect for my Pantry

This is an easy to assemble, light weight shelving unit great for my pantry. It is perfect for this application - don't know about using for a garage for heavy tools etc. but it is definitely sturdy enough to be loaded with cans and bottles. A good choice and one I would make again.

Racor Bike Hoist

This product was an inexpensive and easy solution for mounting my bike to a very high garage ceiling. Instructions were simple and straight forward and now my bike is conveniently out of the way!

Good for lifting extension ladder

I used the PBH-1R to lift my 24' extension ladder high up to the ceiling. I have a set of large pipe hooks on my garage wall, but when I hung the ladder to the hooks, the ladder hung so low that it was impossible to pass beneath it. This Bike Lift helped the situation by raising the ladder higher.

When I opened the pacakge to install it, I found two welcome surprises.

(1) The hanger hooks can be rotated relative to pulley. Just loosen a screw, rotate hook, and tighten the screw. It was very helpful for me to grab side rails of my ladder. If you are interested in this product to hang a ladder and shopped another RACOR's ABL-1R lift, you have found that the fingers of ABL-1R does not rotate, and the pulley took awkward twist in the product picture. It does not happen to this PHB-1R.

(2) The included rope was very long. Because I had to span the two pulley attachments further than typical bicycle application(6ft vs. 3ft), I was concerned if I could run out of rope. It turned out that I have more than enough rope even though my installation was unusual.

Lifting a 45lbs ladder (24ft Type 1A 300lbs rating) is not featherweight. However, there is no feeling of rope stretching or pulley creaking. The product felt very solid. I read in some review that the included screws are prone to strip, but if pilot holes were drilled deep enough(all the length of the screw), the screw can be driven without any trouble. In fact, I broke my screwdriver bit (not screw!) when I drove the screw to a hole which I did not drill the pilot hole all the way.

A last word: don't cut the rope when the lift is full up. If you want to trim the rope, do it when the lift is full down.

Love getting my garage space back!

Getting my bike up off the floor is such a fantastic achievement. So glad to have this. It's my second one, for my second bike. Works great.

A good product but not necessary.

I bought this contraption to keep my new bike from getting beat up. It took a few trips up and down the ladder to get it right. It works ok but it takes a half mile of rope to hoist the bike up. It looks like something the Egyptians invented to build the pyramids. What bothered me most was all the rope I had to screw with. After I used it a couple times I took it down and went to HD and bought two bike hangers for about 2.50 ea. They are really big hooks covered in rubber that screw to the ceiling. Now I just lift the bike up and hook the front wheel, then lift and hook the back wheel. It's a whole lot faster and you don't have all that stuff hanging down all over.

Using for a Kayak

I currently use this for a kayak that weighs about 45lbs.It works as advertised, the rope frays slightly and may be worth replacing eventually, however it has survived over a years worth of ups and downs of my bi-weekly kayak trips. Well worth 16 bucks.

only cascaders that a reliable

I purchased some plastic cascaders that didn't work at all. I saw these were steel and decided to try them. While you only get two per order, they are worth their weight in gold. They are the only reliable cascaders that I've seen thus far.

Not as helpful as I thought

Good - Metal is sturdy, allows me to hang more hangers in my tiny dorm closet.

Bad - Moves crowding from the top of closet to bottom. Picture depicts the closet being cut in half, but because most of my clothes hung are thick jackets it doesn't quite work that way. I think this is better for a lot of shirts, and not heavier/thicker clothing.

piece of crap

I have a very small closet, I'm talking 3 feet of space for a whole lot of clothes. I desperately need a space-saver and thought these would get the job done. Don't be fooled, these save virtually NO space. Sure, there's more room on the closet rung itself, but when you drop it down the clothes all bunch up and push out at the bottom, especially if you're hanging sweaters, jackets, etc. So you have more room for the actual hangers, but unless you prefer your clothes packed together at the bottom and a wrinkled mess, these are not the miracle workers they claim to be. Overall, you can force these to make more space, but your clothes will be wrinkled. I probably fit about three more garments into my closet after using these. And it's still packed..

Poor customer service

Item showed as being available but wasn't; it took about a week after order was placed for vendor to acknowledge that it wasn't going to be shipped. Subsequent emails requesting status update were either ignored or erroneous in their information. Item finally (supposedly) shipped about a month after order placed. Ship date: 2/18; estimated arrival date: 2/4. Nice trick! If the quality of the merchandise is anything like the quality of customer service, I'm in trouble....

Rating :



These helped

These helped, they were sturdy and did help save some space and also helped organize. They are good for hanging shirts, blouses, and maybe thin pants on, I would not try hanging a bunch of sweaters or jeans on them though. While they are sturdy enough for it, if you have a lot of clothes in your closet hanging thick items on these wont save much space.
