Video Transcript for Review of Malone Bike Storage - Expo1 Wall Mount Bike Storage Rack - MAL98QR

Hi everybody, Andy here with etrailer.com, and today, we're gonna take a look at this Malone Expo1 Wall Mount Bike Storage Rack. This hanger is going to let you store one bike horizontally on the wall of your garage, basement, or your office. This rack features two padded arms that will gently cradle your bike by the top tube, and the padding is going to protect the bike's frame from scratches and scuffs, so this is gonna do a great job of protecting your bike from any nicks or scratches or anything like that. Now, this can be adjusted to accommodate a sloped top tube bike, and what I'm doing here is I'm just loosening the center knob here, and as you can see, there's a teeth all the way around the circumference of this part here, and so, you can just move this the way that you need it to accommodate the slope of your bike, and then match those teeth up and then tighten it down, and then that will keep this rack locked into that sloped position if that's what you needed. So let me go ahead and loosen this back up and center it. So it's gonna be very easy to do, so I'm gonna get this centered here as best as I can, and then tighten this back up.

And so, this'll accommodate a bike with a more straight top tube. Now, this is a heavy-duty steel construction with this black powder coat that is gonna resist rust, and the mounting hardware is included along with instructions to help you with the simple installation, and this is gonna store one bike. And let me take some measurements here for you that you might find helpful. I'm gonna look at the length beginning at where this is going to be mounted up to your wall, so I'm just going to start the tape measure from there. This is gonna be sitting about 15 1/2 inches out from your wall, so about 15 1/2 inches long, and then looking at the width, measuring at the widest point here, we're sitting right at 13 inches wide, and then looking at this bracket that's going to be mounted to your wall, the overall height of that bracket, we are sitting right at about 5 1/4 inches tall, and then three inches wide.

And then I measured the mounting holes earlier, center to center, and that measurement is 4 3/8 inches. Now, this bike rack does have a weight capacity of about 30 pounds, and this does have a limited lifetime warranty. Overall, if you're looking just to store one bike in your garage or in your basement or in your office, I think this is gonna do a great job for you, and I'm impressed by the ease of installation as well, and it has everything that you need to get this up and get your bike stored the way that you would like it and where you would like it. That's gonna conclude our look today, I do hope that it was helpful for you. Again, my name is Andy, thank you for joining me..
