 Great way to regain garage space September 4, 2010
Bobby Mac (PA)
I bought two of these to get two road bikes off the garage floor and out of harm's way. The installation was easy and the product works well. The screws supplied are just fine as long as you drill 1/8" pilot holes before screwing them in. If you screw them in with a power screwdriver without pilot holes you'll probably strip or break the heads.
I mounted mine at right angles to the ceiling joists so I had to mount a 2' X 4' first and then attach the puley assemblies to that.
I ordered another one to hang my extension ladder as well.

It takes a bit of patience to hang, but very nice once you have it up.

love the product. Its inexpensive and does the job, I bought four of them. The only negative thing is the rope started to fray after the first few times of use. Needs a better rope.

I recently purchased and installed the Delta El Greco Ceiling Hoist for my mountain bike. After reading the the reviews of other hoists from Rad and Racor, I chose the Delta because it had the least negative reviews.
Most of these negative comments were related to the supplied mounting screws. The screws are typical Asian-made hardware, not the best in the world - but the screws supplied are not defective. With the proper drive tool, they can be easily used. They are Pozidrive screws, I added an image to the photo gallery to illustrate how a Pozidrive screw is identified. These can be driven by a Phillips driver, but it requires care to properly align the driver with the screw drive recess. If the driver is allow to move off center to an angle while apply drive torque, the bit will easily "cam out."
To successfully use the supplied screws, a proper screwdriver must be used. Most people, myself included, do not own Pozidrive tools. I used a #3 Phillips bit in a cordless drill/driver and had no trouble with the screws. However, if you're not comfortable with this, or don't have a #3 Phillips driver, then it's easy enough to go to the local hardware store and buy some screws for under a dollar.
As to the operation of the hoist after getting it installed, it works great. The bicycle raises fairly evenly (stays level) and the rope catch holds it securely in place once the bike is up. As another reviewer mentioned, it works sort of like a venetian blind type device. It's still wise to also use the supplied rope cleat to tie-off the excess rope as an added safety measure.
I love the way this bicycle hoist works and am very happy with it.

I used a board between the joists to mount the rack. Then screwed the rack into the board. The rack works great but I agree with 3 privious reviews that the screws are that great. I used deck screws instead. Easy to put up and works great. Because I've only had it up for 2 weeks now I don't know how durable the cord will be. Easy to operate and I'm ordering a second one.
