Will this hold an original 1950's beach cruiser on the wall? I know the limit is 40lbs, but my bike might weigh a little more, possibly 50lbs.

ONLY if you rest the rear tire (as I do on a cinder block in my garage) on something that will carry most of the bike weight, AND secure the bracket to a wall stud at the appropriate height for the front tire hook to cradle the tire and not have the tire hanging on it. Only then would I consider doing what you ask. Hope this helps.

I would not exceed the recommended weight. But if you use this rack, be sure you anchor it to a stud

I used wall anchors on a brick wall with these hooks and have an 80s Japanese Lotus that is roughly 30 lbs. They are completely secure and I have a tendency to bounce my bike around a bit on the hook when hanging it up because I'm short. I would be hesitant to put anything over 40 lbs on the hooks, but it may be ok with anchors.

I have three of these racks, all of them supporting heavy "beach cuisers" in vertical positions. I would suggest mounting the rack at a height that allows the bike to rest on the rear tire, thereby taking some of the weight off the rack. This has kept a lot of stress off the rack(wall) as well as the front wheel. I've not had any visible damage to any of my front wheels.

I don't know for sure but I would estimate it could hold 2 beach cruiser size bikes or up to 50 pounds. I would estimate that the measurement from receiver to outside of rack would be around 20".

I just use it as a shelf in the laundry room so probably have never had more than 30 pounds on mine. I've got three brackets on a 48" shelf. Seems sturdy enough, but I doubt I'd put 150 pounds on it.

If you install it in the wall studs I would guess it would hold 50 pounds. It's pretty rugged. That's why I chose it.

Hi Lyn,We recommend no more than 50 pounds. We have another version coming soon that will hold substantially more. Thanks for your inquiry.

My daughter and I both have this bike and we are both around 250 lbs. We haven't had any problems (although I did buy a bigger seat for it for comfort). That could be the upper limit, but I'm not sure. I would check with the manufacturer to get a more qualified answer.

The will! We also have cruisers though our tires are not quite that wide there is plenty of width in the rings for what you have. BTW, we love this bike rack!!! It holds the bikes perfectly so nothing rubs or bangs together. Best wishes.

I had it hooked to the pull out on my patio so that I can clean my bike. Let's just say, it doesn't hold it up too well. It wobbles and then it came down! My bike's a road bike that weigh 17lbs. I wouldn't put my hybrid cruiser on it. I hope this helps you in determining whether you want to get this product or not.

The bike is very strong and I believe that the limit is 240lbs, so you should be fine.

It held up for my bike, but between the bike and myself we're only 500 lbs. I have it at the entrance of my garage because there was a pretty large lip from our garage to our driveway. Problem is that the ramp is higher than the garage so it doesn't line up well. Measure first if that's your intended purpose. Hope that helps.

I just put it on my wife'd Electra Beach Cruiser and it doesn't work. The wheels wont touch the ground. She weights only 105 lbs but I wont let her try it as the bike would lean and fall. Unless the one I received is defective, I wouldn't recommend to put it on a 26" bike.

This is designed for bicycles, I am not sure that it will hold that much weight. MINI does not give it a weight rating as most bikes are max 30 lbs at most.

This is probably too late but the limit is supposedly 90 lbs (45 lbs per bike). Hollywood makes a comparable bike rack specifically for e-bikes with a much higher weight limit. It's also more expensive. I'm going to get this one for my Yuba Mundo which weighs 60# by itself but plan on having only it on the rack.

Maybe. I think 40# would be right at the upper limit it could hold. I'd replace the included screws with longer heavier duty lag bolts. The bracket would be the weak link in the chain. It's made of approximately 1/8" plate bent to shape.

I wouldn't put more than 8 pounds in there otherwise it would be difficult to maneuver the bicycle. That's just me, I think it will hold more but it would depend on what you're hauling. Hope this helps.

My bike weighs 36lbs and is holding it very well I would think it would hold a 45 lb bike fine
