Installing Harbor Freight Bike Pulley Lifts

Needed a garage bicycle storage solution and these pulley lifts from Harbor Freight were a good fit.

The included instructions didn’t show how to string the line through the locking mechanism so your close-up of this is VERY helpful - thank you!

Thanks for the video. I installed these. You mentioned it was finicky to get them to go up evenly. I found them more than finicky. And for a heavier bike, I found it a real problem. It wanted to pull up one side more than the other. So as you desribed you have to help it; and the higher it gets the harder it is to help it stay level.

Came here for the threading of the rope through the brake - Thanks!

Just bought this and your video is a life saver, thank you so much for sharing!

Got two for Christmas. I’m thinking of adding a pulley to the wall to keep the rope closer to the wall though.

Thanks for the video. It helped with my install. I installed them above our suv.

I'm heading out today to buy these and this is exactly what I needed to see!

Nice! Now all I need is a $400, 000 house with a 12 foot ceiling in the garage.

These came with the house I bought a few years ago. I tried using them and realized they sucked, but wondered if it was just me.

It’s not me.

Can those bike hoists handle a 70 lbs electric bike?

This might work if you have a Corvette. Most people nowadays buy trucks and SUVs. But thanks for showing how this works.

These "hooks" won't stay under my seat and have dropped the bike twice before relegating it to no more use.

Only thing for me I don’t have a ceiling lol
