Tools and Hardware Reviews of Racor Pro PSB-1R Single Folding Bike Rack
Customer Review: works great!
Summary: 4 Stars
This is great for getting your bike off the floor, especially if you don't have a garage or other storage space for it. Only complaint is that the front wheel will swivel freely because there is nothing holding it still. Lock the front wheel to the pedal with your bicycle lock--this will prevent both the pedal and the wheel from moving around, hitting the wall, hitting a person, etc. It looks like a "magic" flying bicycle on the wall--especially if you put your helmet on the shelf it hides the rack, so all you see is the bike and the helmet. Very cool!Customer Review: Racor Pro Single Folding Bike Rack #PSB-1R

Racor Pro Single Folding Bike Rack #PSB-1R
Exactly as advertised. Great wall rack. Perfect for most types of bikes, but I wouldn't take my chances on a really heavy bike since their is no reinforcement arm...just the two screws that hold the bracket to the wall. Perfect for lighter bikes, and kids bikes. I also like the ability to fold up out of the way when not in use.
Customer Review: Works great
Summary: 4 Stars
I have two of these: one for my mountain bike and one for my road bike. I use them to create additional floor space and to keep the bikes out of "crash range" from my kids.
The racks themselves are great but come with soft-metal Phillips screws that are kind of a pain to secure tightly into wall studs. I endured the process with my first rack but switched to 2x1/4" hex lags that I provided myself for the second, much more enjoyable, installation.
Customer Review: good, but bike handles tilt
Summary: 4 Stars
The rack provides basic mounting capabilities and works well with my Motobecane Cyclocross bicycle. My only problem with it is that there is no mechanism for preventing the handle bars from turning left or right while mounted so my tire often hits the wall and leaves marks. I guess this is a problem because I may not have complete balanced/leveled the rack system when I mounted it but I still think there should be something to prevent handlebar movement.Customer Review: Not For Mountain Bikes
Summary: 1 Stars
This product lasted about 6 months. My mountain bike was too heavy for it to handle. One look at the rack, and it has obvious design flaws. The "arms" are not properly shored up. Further, the holes for the screws are very close together - this does not allow for proper leverage in holding up any sort of weight. This might be ok for one of those super-light road-bikes, but I would not recommend this for a mountain bike of any size.
