Thanks a bunch. You’re video gave me the confidence to tackle the job myself. I’m a 50 year old woman and didn’t want to pay someone to do the installation. Your instructions made it so easy. Thank you so much for taking the time and posting this video.

Awesome video. I don't trust myself to do the installation, but it makes me confident that I could operate it.

Thanks for your step by step video on how to install bike hoist from start to finish including opening the package. I bought the same hoist and watched other videos but they only show the finish job which sucks. They didn't help at all. Yours include detailed measurement with calculation and simulation on how the bike will appear hoisted. You also show right additional parts to use like screws, wood size needed and all. Thanks again.

Excellent video, so complete. I bought my set a year ago, and due to the many reviews online, I've been reluctant to make the decisions on how to install it. I was going to use it for ebike, but the weight of such a bike, 70 lbs, would require more mechanical advantage than that hoist provides. Oh well, I have two analog bikes that have to be hoisted. Your video has given me the incentive. It seems you determined an optimal approach. Thanks!

Great parenting. Very good how to video.

Absolutely wonderful video showing how to install these. I bought them for a client of mine, and am unsure of the installation. Your wall cord holder was a genius idea! I've been thinking I needed another pully or some guide on the wall. I'm going to duplicate what you did. Thanks!!

Great job! Thanks for sharing all the tips.

Very informative video!! I’m looking for someway to store my two road bikes and my one mountain bike. I’d contemplated wall mounts but after watching this I’ll be going with the hoists. Thank you!

Your Video was very helpful. It definately saved me a lot of time and trouble. Thanks

Thanks a ton for this video. I just finished putting mine up this afternoon. Your tips were invaluable. My bike's up and out of the way!

Awesome, thanks for showing the auto lock weaving, my instructions didnt have that diagram.

Your son did an outstanding job.

very helpful video - i am considering getting and wanted to understand how it worked. thanks

It's nice..and safe. Thumbs up!

Come here kid , stand under the bike, spin around once and see if it falls. My kits came with no instructions at all. Bought mine on ebay ! Just a tiny picture of the bike hanging. But i figured out the locking pulley thing by trial and error. Also, the screws they supplied are cheessy. One snapped off at the head. Luckily I backed it out with vice grips and used my own stronger exterior screws to finish the install. Love having the space now. Maybe more bikes will go up, we will see !

Amazing lifting hoist,

Nice video, thanks.

Very helpful video thanks

Timber ‘plant’. Best method for spreading weight

Really nice video, great instructions on taking measurements and the additional tips. I got mine at harbor freight and it was well priced, however the instructions sucked. The pictures they provided were horrible and your video was a life saver. In my garage, I had to mount the hoist along a single ceiling stud instead of across. So the 2x6 had to be mounted exactly in the middle of a single stud, which took a lot of time. Wish i had the orientation in garage that allowed mounting across the studs. I guess a 1x6 would work out well for this situation.

I bought my bicycle lift from Lidl here in the UK under the Fischer brand name but is essentially the same piece of kit.

Awesome.. thank you.

Good stuff! How's it holding up? Any issues so far? I'm a bit nervous having it hang above a car haha

That kid is a mirror image of myself when I was 12.

Just curious could u hoo to the bike in a way that it would pull the bike up sideways for even more room

i use a safety strap to hold the black claps on the bike seat and handle.... i had the bike slip off a few times while lifting ..scary .. good vid!

could one use something like to to lift car tires for a ceiling mounted tire rack?

Always be Knolling!!

Where did u end up mounting the extra rope holder?

My idea of more is better. Thanks for the remeasuring strategies and allowing for front and back clearances. I like the little guide you built too. Will see if I can find a guide of similar design at a boating store or climbing supplier.

7:30, thanks!

great vid

Thanks I subscribed do you still need that 2×6 if you have a concrete ceiling thanks again

Up to how high of a ceiling can this be used?

thanks for the video showing the locking mechanism, do you think that the rope will wear much being pulled through that little hole often? thanks again

Very helpful as the directions that came with the lift were a bit vague

👍🏼

It looks like you used a 2x6" board to mount the hardware on and then mounted that to the ceiling. I was thinking about using a 1x6" board. Do you think that is sufficient or do you need the 2x6"?

Question? What sie the lag bolts for this? 2-inch x ?? Please let me know. Thanks.

True or false?: if the bracket/plate is mounted too far in any direction, the front and back of the bike won't rise at the same time. I suppose that's the mechanics of pulleys, right?

I'm assuming you had to get your kids a stool underneath the anchors so they could retrieve the rope?

2" screws to fasten the 2x6 to the ceiling? A 2x6 is a inch and a half thick plus 5/8 or 1/2" drywall? Good luck

Muito bom.. Gostei!! Quero montar um elevador pra bagageiro de teto.. Obrigado

What is this other channel? I know you as IQLess. I recognized the thumbnail style, then I see your face and your voice.

It’s goes up just fine but not so great coming down.

and the car must be removed to drop the bikes....????

So you bought 2" screws to screw a 2" board into the "roof". Got it. Sounds safe

Can you hang it lengthwise along one stud?

Also why not just screw in to the studs?

Now, just hope the seat or handlebars don't come off.

9:30 ... so that should have been done first, huh?

come install this in my kitchen

Anyone else holding their breath in case it suddenly fell on the daughter or the dalek?

You skipped over the most challenging and important part: drilling the holes for the lag bolts and screwing it into the ceiling. Instead we got 10 minutes of your children raising an lowering bikes. Oh well...

Like shooting a fly with a cannon 😔
