How to measure your bike
When deciding between our different bike racks, it comes down to tyre diameter (A), wheel diameter (B) and if you have fenders/mudguards.
Match your tyre width and wheel diameter to our bike rack types to find the best Steadyrack to suit your bike. Learn more about measuring your bike.

Will hanging my bike damage the bike frame or forks?
Hanging a bike in Steadyrack will not cause any damage to your bike. No part of the bike frame touches the rack, only the front tyre, which is cradled in the steel arms.
Are Steadyrack bike racks safe to use for bikes with hydraulic brakes/forks/suspensions?
Yes! This a common concern for many bike owners with these types of brakes and suspension. When your bike is hung up vertically, the fluid in your forks will run towards the seals and keep them lubricated. This will prolong their use, so it’s actually good for your bike and forks to hang it vertically on our bike racks. If you have hydraulic brakes on your bike, the fluid will run down when the bike is hung, so we advise pumping the brakes a few times when you take the bike off the rack if it’s been there for a while. The shocks shouldn’t leak when the bike is hung up, however if they do then it’s a good indication that the seals might need replacing. Read our blog post for more information about storing bikes with hydraulic brakes in Steadyracks.
Can I lock my bike to a Steadyrack?
You can lock your bikes into our racks with a D Lock or Chain lock. This is sufficient to prevent opportunist theft and adequate if your bikes are stored in a private carpark. If your bikes are in a location fully accessible to the public, we recommend installing a bracket or a steel rail to the wall underneath the rack to attach a locking device to. As with everything, take caution when storing your bike in a public place, as professional thieves can generally get around any locking system.
Do the racks swing freely?
Steadyracks are assembled using a specific tension for the nuts (torque setting = 5nm) that holds the central spine to the top and bottom mounting brackets. This setting is designed to give sufficient tension to the pivot to ensure bikes can be loaded on any angle without the rack moving around too much. When you remove the 2 plastic caps from the top and bottom, the nuts are exposed. You can loosen both nuts to free up the rack more, and equally you can tighten them to lock the rack into position. We recommend you maintain them so the racks are stiff but can still be pivoted. The rack can be quite stiff when you use it for the first few times then it loosens up a bit. This is due to the type of fibre washers we use to assist with the stiffening effect.
Can I lock my Steadyrack into one position or any angle?
It is not possible to lock the rack solid in one position. However, you can tighten the nuts so the rack will become stiff and will effectively hold it in the one position. To do this, first remove the two plastic mounting bracket covers (End Caps). Next, tighten the two nuts that attach the central pivot bar to the mounting brackets. If you follow these steps, we recommend checking your fixings carefully and making sure they are very secure as any sideways pressure on the rack could damage the mounting bracket.
Are Steadyracks suitable for apartments?
Yes our racks are ideal for apartment buildings where the parking is in a secure environment and not exposed directly to the elements.

- DPDonato P.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars1 year agoBetter than expected
My bike is 77 lbs with 20” wheels. I always remove the battery before hanging it. I had to do some adjustments before installation, as my garage has concrete lip at the bottom so the bike rises at a slight angle. It works like a charm! Love the space gain. Btw, the customer service is top notch. Thank you guys!

We have Aventon fat tire bikes . I was concerned that they would not fit, but they work great.
- RZRoland Z.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars9 months agoFat Rack for Maxx Jagamoasta
Hey dear Steadyrack team,
You would like feedback on the Fat Rack. I'm happy to give that.
I am Roland from Germany, 62 years old and have been riding my e-fat bike, a Maxx Jagamoasta, for 3 years. First I looked for hydraulically supported brackets, because the bike is a really heavy chunk and I am no longer the youngest. But the brackets were all far too expensive and hard to get for fat bikes.
Then I found and ordered the Fat Rack from Steadyrack. It is very easy to attach and it is very easy to attach the fat bike. You don't need any strength or special skill for this. In addition, it is inexpensive and stable. My Grizzly bike has found its cave. We give 5 stars and have already ordered the next steadyrack - for my wife's trekking bike.
Kind regards, Roland

In the past 12mths I have continuously purchased more bikes and with every bike I have added a Steadyrack. I have 9 bikes and 9 racks.. They keep the small space neat and tidy when you are obsessed with cycling and have shared that obsession with your kids. This is not even the current photo of the wall of bikes.
- IMILKA M.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars1 year agoSolid, easy to install and use
I have one fender rack, one fat rack and several mtb racks. Happy with all. I don’t bother with the end caps on any as I find them difficult to take on and off and looks don’t really matter in the garage. The pivot allows all bikes to lie closer to wall to fit the truck in the garage- with each rack 32” apart.
