Can I use the clamp as a bike rack/clamp in the garage ?

Yes. That's what I do. It does it all. I mounted to a post tho so not 100% your handle bars will clear (if mounted to a wall). I have a support post floor to rafters (4x4) that mine is lag bolted into. Measure your bars center of stem to end to make sure the mount is long enough to accommodate...

Yes, but that is not the real purpose of the clamp. Remember, the clamp's purpose is to hold the bike firmly in place. Whereas, a bike rack should be a no fuss bike holder. So, with that, know that it would be a bit tedious to clamp and un-clamp a bike. If I were you, I'd get an honest to goodness bike rack, or a bike hoist for that purpose. Hope this helps.

Yes, This assumes that you have a wall to attach it to. Once attached, it will allow you to maintain clearance between the bike and the wall. When not in use it swings out of the way. I have been extremely happy with mind.

You can use it. However it is not designed to quickly place the bike on and off of it.

Yes, you can use this as a bike rack. Do not clamp it down on any carbon-fiber tubes, however. Good luck.

Yes, there's a theaded hole for the clamp to be applied there. Looks like you'd just have to remove the weight from that side of the bench press bar, to avoid the weights knocking together

The clamp is about 2-inch in height. If your seatpost has less than 3-inch exposed then it wouldn't be suitable. You should also consider if the rear wheel might get in the way of the rack if seatpost is raised very low.

yes you should have no problem doing it that way.I put mine in my garage and it work great.

it could possible. it didn't line up well with the ones on my bikes frame. there is a clamp ring setup that comes with it so you can attach it just above (this is what i did) not all frames have rack attach points so i imagine this system was designed to mediate that issue.

Yes it can and that's what we did. I manage an apartment complex and we put concrete pads in and bolted the racks down for our residents. This is a good bike rack for the money and so far it's worked out well.

Yes, but you have to buy concrete wall screw or concrete wall anchor. I also had to get a drill bit for concrete to drill the hole. My drill is not very powerful and it took 2 hours to make a hole deep enough in my garage wall to attach this. There is only one hole, so the unit moves when I put my bike on in. We only put one bike on it. A two-screw unit would be more stable. I do like that it folds up against the wall, if needed.

Yes you could , and use two brackets on the top of the rear rack. You might lose some of the stability of the baskets by not using the lower bracket that connects to the frame. It was easy to connect to the rack though. But and a bolt tighten to a P shaped clamp. I use them every day. Open up easy and I added a shot if WD-40 to the little hinge that holds the basket closed when not in use and was a big help. Take care, John

It really needs to go up against the wall and screwed into the wall at the top, preferably into a stud or cinder block garage wall because it's not going to stand by itself when you put a bike or two on it. I have mine in my garage screwed into the wall and it works fine that way. Don't expect it to be safe unless you attach it to a wall.

I only use it to hold the bikes so they are not sitting on the tires. I guess you could if you bolted the rack really securely to the wall. Any type of lock is just a determent, if they really want it they can get it!

I put hooks on my garage wall. The rack goes on one set of hooks and the 2-bike extension goes on another set. Easy.

Not sure but I will tell you the it has a dual hook - a metal bar with a hook at each end - from which you hang the frame of the bike. If you hung one wheel from one hook it would be off center, and I don't think a wheel would hang from both hooks because the hooks are too far apart. The bar with the hooks on it is adjustable in that you can make it horizontal, vertical or anywhere in between but if you turn it vertical, the hooks would be facing left and right (versus up and down) and would not secure the bike. It is a fantastic stand though I will say, but you need to secure it to your ceiling with a screw or two because it expands and contracts just a bit with change in temperature in a garage and could come loose. Hope that helps.

I believe you could but you should make sure that the unit is attached directly to a wall stud or if not that the anchor and wall material will support the weight of the bike.

No. Don't plan on leaving your bike with this rack. I don't know of a way to lock it.

This unit would serve well as a bike holder for continued use. It is very well made and sturdy and should hold up well. You will have to manually close the clamping surface or jaws and then release them each time.

I lock our bikes with a bike lock inside the yardstash. You could bolt it to concrete if you had too.

I've used this stand to service/repair my own bike, as well as the bikes of several friends and family members. I haven't yet come across a bike frame that this stand's clamp will not accommodate. I hope this helps.
