Amazon.com Product Description
With the rise in popularity of expensive bicycles, storage and safety have become an issue. Bikes stored one on top of the other in a garage or hanging from a ceiling can be dangerous for small children or can fall and damage not only the bike, but an expensive automobile or truck. The PBS-2R Racor Bike Stand will securely store two bikes in either direction and can be used indoors or can be secured outside the home to safely store your bikes. The Stand is easy for children to use and the tubular steel construction with its durable epoxy finish will give you many years of dependable service. --C. Dwight Barnett

Does what it's supposed to. April 30, 2008
J. Nipper (New Market, Md USA)
Works perfectly fine for a 54cm road bike. Assembly was kind of a pain due to poor instructions, but other than that I have no complaints.
 Horrible, Horrible and oh yeah, Horrible April 29, 2008
M. Raibley (Chicago, IL United States)
Cheaply constructed, one of the vertical tubes had a smashed in end and another one of the vertical tubes I had to bend with my vise just to make it usable. This product proves the old adage, "You get what you pay for". I wished I would have spent a little more money and got a better bike stand. The stand is not sturdy at all and due to its lack of stability, the wheels that actually sit inside the stand have unnecessary stress placed on them. If you want something that's sturdy and made of at least decent quality, BUY SOMETHING ELSE!
Need to adjust for MTB Dics Brakes April 17, 2008
Homey G (Florida)
Good product. Takes about 10 minutes to assemble. If you have a mountain bike or other with disc brakes, make sure you spread the outer wheel insert bars to provide enough spacing for the rotor. This took some effort to spread the center portion of the wheel slot bar. Do this prior to tightening the screws on the unit. Also, you can opt to take a dish towel and fold it, and them wrap it around the top portion of the wheel slot (where the tire touches the wheel slot) and use zip ties to keep the bike stable and secure without hitting the disc rotor. With slight modifications, the stand functions very well without touching the brake rotors. Overall decent bike stand. This unit holds my Gary Fisher HiFi Deluxe '08 and Trek Madone 5.2 '08 without issue (except listed above).

The Racor bike stand is of a great in quality and price. Almost perfect all in all! Seriously.
HOWEVER, and this is a big however, it is NOT intended to be used with mountain bikes, which typically have wider wheels (the bike weights ends up sitting on the wheel spikes against the Racor frame), forget also about using it with any bike that has disk brakes (again the disk brake will be stuck against the frame).
I believe the design is just too old (perfect fit for much older bikes with skinny wheels and flimsy brakes).
It is a shame, but it is in it's way to the garbage. (it is too cheap for the hassle of sending it back).
Great Bike Stand April 7, 2008
Cheri Root (Orlando, FL,United States)
I purchased two of these bike stands to house four bikes. They work great. My son's bike is a little smaller so we turned the stand around so the wheel fits in better. We previously had our bikes hanging on hooks in the garage and it was extremely difficult to get them up and down every time we wanted to ride. The bike stands are easy, convenient and our bikes are always accessible, which makes us ride them more! The only negative is that the stands do not stay in place when you roll your bike in and out, but they are still well made and sturdy. I would definitely recommend.
