Features:
The innovative Velo Hinge lets you store 1 bike on the wall of your home, garage, or office. The rack has a vinyl-coated hook that holds your bike securely by the front wheel. The hook pivots so you can rotate your bike against the wall to conserve space, and the hook folds up to store inside a compact base when not in use. Mounting hardware included.
Easy Installation
The rack mounts to any wall stud with the included hardware. The pivoting hook allows you to swing your bike to the left, but the orientation can be changed to swing your bike to the right. If you would prefer the bike to swing to the right, simply remove the hook, rotate the base 180 degrees, and reinsert the hook into the base.
Simple to Use
The Velo Hinge is simple to use. Just open the hinged cover, flip the hook over the top, and close the cover. Your bike hangs from the rack by the front wheel. The vinyl-coated hook is designed to hold most standard road bike, mountain bike, and children's bike wheels. An extended hook is available (sold separately) for deep dish rims and wide mountain bike tires.
The rack comes with a wheel bumper to keep the bike stable and help prevent sway. Just hang your bike from the hook and note where the rear wheel touches your wall to determine the appropriate location to mount the wheel bumper.

Today we're going to be taking a look at the Feedback Sports Velo Hinge Storage Rack, part number 301-16724. The Velo hinge offers a space saving design over traditional bike hooks. The pivoting hook allows you to optimize your bike storage and it makes your bike easy to retrieve when you're ready to use it. It features a vinyl coated hook so it won't harm or scratch your wheel and it's going to work with most bike tires excluding fat tires. When it's not in use, the hook tucks away for a clean look. Here at the bottom, the bumper keeps your rear wheel stable, preventing it from swaying. It's perfect for a whole family of bikes, so pick up multiple to keep them organized and out of the way. It's made out of a sturdy steel construction with a black powder coat finish.
It's dimensions are seven and a quarter inches tall by three and a half inches wide and five eighths inches deep. The hook can be installed taking your fold out to the left or to the right. You'll just simply flip it and move the hook. It comes with all the hardware you need to get it installed. You just want to be sure to mount it to a secure area, like a stud.
You'll also want to be sure that there's no electrical or any plumbing behind the wall. When installing the bumper, you can use your bike as a template for its position. And that's going to complete our look at the Feedback Sports Velo Hinge Bike Storage Rack, part number 301-16724.

Compact, wall-mounted rack holds 1 bike by the front wheel in your home, garage, or office. Pivoting hook lets you swing bike against your wall to conserve space. Hook folds into housing when not in use. Mounting hardware included.This is the best bike rack on the market. It is PERFECT if you have limited garage space or just prefer that your bike(s) don't take up tons of space. They are very sturdy and strong (hang them from a wall stud, obviously), and the brilliant addition of a hinge to a vertical bike hook allows a bike to hang surprisingly flat against a wall. If you have multiple bikes and want to maximize space, hang each bike so that handlebars align with gaps in the frame of the other bikes (see included photo). I only have about 7' of wall space, and I fit three bikes with room for a fourth, and they barely stick out from the wall (not even as far as my trash can!). IMPORTANT NOTE - I have two 29ers with 2.3" and 2.4" wide tires and the standard hook could not hold them. The standard hook was perfect for my road bike, but for mountain bikes you definitely need to purchase the larger hook (Item # 301-16858, "Long Wheel Hook for Feedback Sports Velo Hinge Bike Storage Rack").
Easy to install. Bikes look great. Definitely get the long hook if using this for mountain bikes. I tried both and The shorter might fit but it is more troublesome to hook in and out. If installing in a concrete wall use 3/16 tapcon screws with a 5/32 bit.
I ordered 6 of these to hang my family's bikes in the garage. I was a bit surprised that there were no reviews when I purchased--the price is right and the material is made of heavy steel. Easily reversed the swing direction and when mounted to studs it appears to be solid. It seems like a more cost effective approach than the other $70 pivoting/hanging bike rack.
I love this product - it's simple and robust. It does what I expect it to extremely well.
Love these bike brackets. They were easy to install and perfect for our loft location. The brackets keep our bikes out of the way, while looking stylish in the loft setting. And it's easy for me (5'4", 120lbs) to get the bikes on and off!
Overall its a strong sturdy product with a solid concept. I hung 6 bikes using very little space. The drawbacks; the rubber on the hook is flimsy and weak. The rubber on two of the hooks is already tearing and coming off with each use. I've had to wrap electrical tape to avoid damaging my bike wheels. The other drawback is the bottom bracket that stabilized your rear wheel. To short to hold wheel and will slip when rotating bikes.
Good product for hanging bike flat against the wall. You will probably end up still scuffing the wall. Also for me I put in with a giant toggle bolt which is going to keep it secure, but is going to do some damage to your wall (wouldn't be necessary if you can find the stud). So good product and space saving for an apartment

Above is still very true a year later
Works fantastic! You'll need to order larger hook for MTB tires though.
The product is excellent it was exactly what I was looking for to hang my new bike in the garage. The hanger is sturdy was very easy to install and fits all my needs. I am very pleased .
Great product. Works just as advertised. My favorite part is that the bikes "fold" in closer to the wall and don't take up as much area in my shop. Very happy with this storage solution!
These hinged storage racks are very easy to install and work flawlessly. Bikes are up and out of the way when not in use and are easily accessible when ready to ride. Great product!
Great bike hooks! Simple to install and great quality! Also customer service is the best at etrailer they are on it!!! Just all around amazing company!
It works. You will definitely need the longer hook for mountain bike tires. Easy to install. They do flex some with a 30lbs bike on them.

Good. All 6 are used in my garage. Only thing I would have done differently would be to mount the brackets onto a 2x4 or something similar to move brackets further from wall. This would allow the bikes to sit flatter pedals hit wall first.
