Questions & Answers

What is the most important thing to do when installing the Bike Lift?

Ensure that the 2 pieces of the Bike Lift assembly are screwed into ceiling joists (beams) rather than just the plasterboard.

That way they’ll easily support your bike.

What’s the maximum safe weight that the Bike Lift can hold?

Of course, nobody wants a bike to fall on their head! It may make an interesting story when someone asks you where the bruise came from, but we’d like to avoid that! ;o)

The Bike Lift can safely hold a 22kg bike.

You’d be hard pressed to find a bike that heavy these days.

What is the minimum distance between the ceiling and the top of the bike?

When fully hoisted, the bike is 22 cm from the top of the ceiling.

Does the Bike Lift come with everything I’ll need for installation?

The Bike Lift comes with all hardware, screws and rope.

The only things you’ll need are a tape measure, Philips Head screwdriver, a ladder and perhaps a stud finder.

How much is postage and handling?

Providing you’re within Australia, postage is just $9.95.

Where do you deliver to?

We deliver to Australia only. For US and Canadian orders, please see www.storeyourbike.com.

Where do the profits go?

Good question!

The profits go to me (Jack) to help me pay for my pilot’s licence. I want to get into the Air Force as a pilot and every little bit helps!

What do you know about bikes, Jack?

Another excellent question that makes me suspect we’re making these up ourselves!

I know a little about bikes – I’m the youngest person ever to cycle across Australia (4,500 kms in 30 days) and I manage the web site for the Sydney to Surfers bike ride.
