"Installs with one wood screw"... One screw? Will it hold up two bikes?

I guess it would depend on the weight of the bikes and what you screw the screw into. I ended up drilling the mounting hole out and using a bigger screw for my application. I also bought a second rack since they are cheap and only put one bike on each since they hang over my and my wife's cars and they are a bit small anyway. I did not trust the screw they provided but after using a more robust screw, yes, I would say you could squeeze two bikes on one but I did not. The racks were really easy to mount and I like them a lot for one bike each.

I've been able to put up an adult bike and a child's bike on the rack. It's held them for several days. I believe there is a weight limit but I no longer have the box so I don't know what it is.

I had to use different screw, but of course the bikes should not be so heavy (old bikes). Regards.

One screw but make sure you use a stud finder. The screw I used it's the type they use for concrete with a hex head. Two bikes? I doubt it. I have my kid's 16 inch bike and there is no room left for another bike like that or bigger.

If it is screwed in actual wood I feel like it would. Mine is screwed into a drywall with a big anchor and it's holding up very well with one bike on it.

I doubt it will hold up much weight at all. Because of the receivers design it does not take very much weight to pull the receiver down. I have experience this and do not recommend using this for more than one bike.

None that I know of. We have two bikes with no problem and that is what it is setup for. The mounting bolts were too short so I had to get new ones.

No, just two will work just fine. You can mount it directly on top of the stem, or you can rotate the rubber base and mount it directly on the handlebars. I cut the zip ties every time I switch it from my summer bike and fat tire bike and just use new zip ties.

I am very satisfied with the rack... It serves it's purpose.. I believe there is always a solution to the request you are asking .. I unfortunately do not have the knowledge or know how to accomplish that.. But I can state that I have four bikes(2) on each arm and have had no problems.. My wife would like me to anchor the rack to the wall in case it might crush our daughter .. I again have no knowledge to know how ... THULE The name you know ..!!

It's not a free standing unit. I tried both of my bikes on it and it toppled over. Couldn't even rest it against the wall. The only way to secure was screw into wall. My storage unit has metal walls & prevents us from attaching anything. My thought if I have to screw into wall I'd get a wall mount unit.

I believe you want one bike stand and that will support two bikes. I have no idea what the two bike stand is for over $100.

most definately, will hold as many bikes as you can put on.I install the one that is rated a 2500 pounds and I pull a ATV behind my camper... I reinforced my 4" bumper with some angle iron, just to be extra careful.you wont have to do that if your just hauling bicycles.make sure you pick the right one... they come with 2" and 4" receivers

It comes with everything needed to attach it to one bike. You'll need some basic tools though (e.g. Allen wrench). &, if you loose the assembly the instructions the way I did, you can find them on the company website.

I often load 4 adult bikes on mine and yes it is tight but by alternating the bikes you can get it done. As Michael said in his post it is important to NOT push in the second rack all the way until you load the 3rd bike. It's kind of a hassle BUT it works better that most of the hitch ones out there that hang the bikes from their frames. I modified my primary rack by placing a two inch tall pc of rectangular steel tubing btwn the "wing" mount and the main bar. This elevates the first two bikes a couple of inches which seems to help. I do have to remove the seat off of my bike and put it in the back of the vehicle as the handlebars from the previous bike always seem to get in the way.

It comes with a fastening screw and a bolt. I fastened mine to the drywall in my garage! So far so good! There is enough clearance higher up for the pedals to rotate whilst on the rack. Each of the arms (brackets) fit into the stem independently so you can have the bike at various angles. Hope this helps.

Mine is free standing with normally two bikes on it. It is still very stable when I remove the bottom bike and leave the top one. In fact, that is typically the arrangement.

I can tell you it will hold 4 ordinary bikes. The newer E-Mountain bikes which I purchased this for, it has issues with securing. The unit is very heavy and cumbersome. If you are not use to holding weight up and aligning, you may need two people. The unit is built very well.

Yes... However you may only be able to get one bike on the rack depending how far your tire sticks out. I moved the tire mount , witch is on the bumper, to one side worked fine.

I think it would easily hold three in terms of handling the weight, though I've never put three on, only two. It would be tight, like the other responder said, and you'd need to tie the bikes down to keep them from moving/wobbling.

No, not meant to hang that way-- will tip over. The hooks hold the bike by its frame- top bar. You can stack 2 bikes, but horizontal.

It has nothing to do with the bike, the receiver will hold a bike rack as I use it to support two bikes!
