    It's a decent hoist, but you'll need to supply your own rope.

    Heidelbergensis has no use for this. His bicycle cannot fit in the same pink troll with him, nor is there even a wall in the tent to hang this.

    Well I need it shipped to my house. Shipped elsewhere does me no good.

    I bought it for $16 from Amazon back in Dec 2007, and it's still in its box. It's doing way better than any stock I'm holding...

    Yep these are not bad - the rope they give you is poor at best.

    It must suck when that rope loosens from it's anchor in the middle of the night.

    I don't know why people buy this baconnaise. Get two coated accessory hooks ($2 each at Home Depot), anchor them into your ceiling studs, and hang your bike by the rims. No dealing with stupid ropes or other Racor brand garbage.

    #10 is correct. Get the elongated hooks.

    #10, #12 - my garage is almost 2 story height. I seriously don't like this product and the hooks I would never be able to reach. Any other suggestions?

    #13,

    Buy a gravity stand or hang your bikes vertically on the wall. There's no reason to make bike storage more complicated than it has to be, and this Racor device is overkill.
