Best 2012 Audi Q5 Bike Storages

Well the bike stand arrived today, less than a week from ordering. I met the mail person at my mailbox so she wouldn't have to stop and get out. Can you tell I was excited? This is my second 3 bike floor stand Swagman Park It 3, the other one I left at our winter home in Florida. This one will be left in New York. Anyway, it took me probably 15 minutes to get it all put together and it was perfect as was the first stand. Anyone looking for a great Bike Stand check out this model that I purchase from eTrailer, you won't be disappointed. Thank you to all for the speedy delivery and a great product.

Received the bike stand early this afternoon and it took me approximately 20 minutes to assemble. Easy as can be. My bike fits perfectly and securely. As usual, anything I've purchased through eTrailer has been excellent quality and worked perfectly for me. Never had any issues. Thanks etrailer.

The Swagman X Mount Bike Carrier Storage Rack - Wall Mount rack really freed up floor space in our garage. We purchased two (2) mounts as we have a two bike Swagman rack and a four bike Hollywood rack. We use both bike racks with our RV and tow vehicle when the whole family travels with us. With the bike racks stored in the upright position on the Swagman storage racks, I can have our second car car in the garage. We used a 3/4 inch plywood backing for the wall mounts which allowed me to install the wall mounts between two wall studs. The four bake rack is mounted low on the wall and the two bike rack is mount just above it about shoulder height. Both racks are easy to remove and put in place for storage. The Swagman X Mount Bike Carrier Storage Rack - Wall Mount Rack is a real space saver.

Product performs exactly as promised. I have 3 receiver hitch racks, and it was great to get a couple off the floor. Bonus is that one of them is designed in such a way that I can hang a bike on it while stored in this bracket and work on the bike. Took away one star because I would like to have seen larger screws or maybe square bit screws. This came with 4 long skinny phillips head screws that seem to do the job, but require a lot of care to prevent stripping out the heads.

Great rack for overhead storage. It allowed for storage in an area of the garage that was basically dead space.

Adds so much space to our garage floor. Sturdy ceiling mount system.

So as with another customer I have a Thule T2 Pro XT and the rack will not insert in far enough for the locking pin on the rack to engage. So rather than drill a hole in my new valet I assembled it with the receiver section reversed. Now I can put the rack on and it slides far enough in that locking pin engages. (Check out the photos.) This is the reason for the 4 star review. Other than that it seems to be sturdy and definitely serves the purpose it was designed for.

I wanted to bring to your attention a problem I am having with my recent order for the:Hollywood Racks Rack Valet Rolling Storage Cart for Hitch-Mounted Bike Racks - 100 lbsItem # HRRV-1, which I just received. As you can see from the attached picture, the bike rack doesn't fit into the storage rack because the pin cannot reach the hole where it secures the system. It falls short by about an inch of reaching the hole. The rack I have is the Thule T2 Pro XT, and the picture attached below shows the reason why - namely the housing of the pin comes in the way of moving the rack further to be able to reach to hole. You can see the Hitch Pin Alignment Collar on the floor, but even after removing the latter it didn't fit. I did ask one of your reps whether the Hollywood storage cart would be compatible with the Thule rack which I had & she said it would be fine. I don't know if you have a solution, but if not I guess I'll just have to live with it - albeit a little less securely.
