Would there be any reason one could not use these hooks to mount bike to wall? I notice the hooks specify ceiling and do not mention wall mounting.

I suspect that parts of the bike (pedals, handlebars, tire) would scratch wall, as these hooks would not standoff from the wall surface enough to keep the bike clear. The 100 pound per hook rating is probably a bit conservative, these are stroog hooks when mounted into structure!

Not sure what type of mounting you require, but this bike light mounting works great on the handlebars.

The supplied hooks are probably not strong enough to hold a bike. I think you might be able to modify to hold a bike if you attached a piece of wood (e.g. 2x4 or 1x2) to the ceiling "rafters". Run the wood across the width of the ceiling (about 7 feet) and attach hooks to the wood. Maybe you could get two bikes hung. By the way, outside dimension of footprint frame is 27.5" x 85.5". Max height at highest peak is 81.5" You would have a bit over 6' of hanging height to work with for the bikes.

I didn't mount them, but the speakers were mounted to the wall using these: http://www.amazon.com/VideoSecu-Universal-Speaker-Brackets-Ceilings/dp/B001QNBUA4/ref=pd_bxgy_e_img_y. I hope this helps.

Yes, it hooks to the wheel of any type of bike. You just have to make sure you mount it high enough on the wall.

They might be ok to hang light weight bicycles. As I have not hung any bike, so its hard to determine.

Hi. I gave this to a friend of mine last Christmas and he went to Lowes and bought wall anchors and stainless screws to mount the unit, as where he wanted it placed did not have wall studs located where needed. He says they worked great.

Bike is Suspended by Nylon Rope to the ceiling. I believe if anyone really wanted Your Bike bad enough, this Hanging /Storage System would NOT prevent them from doing that? You could However remove a wheel and keep it inside or pad Lock Wheel before raising it up!Cheers! Curt>~iii~<( sure freed up a lot of room in My Garage!

The only limitation is the width and depth of the bike wheel, not the gender of the bike. This hook is fine for most bikes. I have a 29 inch wheel mountain bike and it works fine. However, I also have a Specialized Fatboy bike with 4 inch wide wheels and it will not fit this bike hook - there is insufficient gap between the wall and the hook and the hook isn't wide enough to grab the wheel.

yes. I bought mounts, but didn't use them. There's a standard hole like in poster frames for just hanging them with a nail in the wall on the back of the speaker.

i bought mounts separately but never used them. save a few buck and mount them to the wall -- think it looks better anyway.

There's actually no built in hangers or slots for a wall mount, so you'll have to figure out a way for you to do that yourself.HOWEVER, to be truthful, I don't feel as if they're worthy of being mounted on a wall, only because they're not the loudest speakers. While they are accurate and a good buy for a desktop/small room setup, I wouldn't mount them on a wall only because I'm assuming you're mounting them in a medium sized/larger room.

We hung them from lights on a ceiling fan and just didn't use the fan. We tied them with slip knots. Hope this helps.

Only the end brackets attach to the wall -- making installation fairly easy and pain-free (although still a two-person operation to ensure you're hanging it level). The cross-bar, to which the bike hooks attach, simply rests in the brackets. I have 5 bikes on it now and it's very sturdy and a great space-saver.

I secured it with lag bolts, thru the drywall into the rafters. Dry wall screws into expander things won't hold that much weight. One thing to be careful of and that is if you use lag srews (bolts)be sure they are long enough and that you hit the center of the rafter. I made that mistake and after awhile it fell down for me, with the bike on it. I put the hoist on a 2x4 and screwed that to the ceiling. Anymore questions I hope I can help.

I would hang it higher so the bike is completely off the floor. This way you have more wiggle room when you try to hang up your bike. Also, since every bike's size dimension is different, you won't have to worry if you want to hang a different bike in the future. I would just hang it where it is comfortable for you to hang your bike, leaving a few inches at the bottom.

Truly, i haven't seen an issue with the hooks on these. I often am not the one using the end product, though. Just assembling banners for other departments within the organization and they use them as needed. Sorry I couldn't be of more help!
