The unit mounts from the ceiling or the wall, for handy versatility. Made from epoxy coated, laser cut 12-gauge steel; the hook won't bend or rust for years of reliable storage. With no assembly required, the hanger mounts easily to the wall in minutes. --Brian D. Olson

These can be found all over the place for twice the money as I found them here. They are inexpensive, rubber padded, simple and work great!.

I use mine to hang from the ceiling instead of the wall as pictured.

1.0 out of 5 stars JUNK : scratches rims, August 21, 2008

The rubber covering the hook rips within two weeks of using the hook, coming off and then the sharp metal edge of the hook scratched the wheel rims. TWO of these hooks did this, so its a major design flaw. and the metal bends out over time, meaning that you have to bend it back in.

Look elsewhere for a good hook, one with a a round metal hook and rubberized coating rather than a cheap rubber cap like this one.

Good item for the cost--which is unmatched anywhere else; most outlets sell this for triple the cost you find it here.

The hook is larger than I had thought, based on the photos, but I'm using two of them, and they seem quite functional. I'm a bike commuter, so I take my bike on and off this rack at least once daily, and have been every day in the two weeks I've had it.

I'm quite pleased with the purchase.

I did wrap a bit of electrical tape around the contact portion of the hook, to keep the rubber tip in place and to provide a bit of extra cushion. The tip's prone to splitting, falling off--my only complaint.
