This guy is obsessed with lifts
Mike’s jokes are on point. Your presence has added a great element to an already awesome channel.
Install that motor in the attic in the next house, out of site & it will be a cleaner look & give you more clearance if you were to use the cargo rack for wheels or what not. Cool system!
2 of these in tandem up in the attic with a tire rack that’s fucking genius!!! Stupid easy to load and right out of the way
Mike comin' in with the classic Dad joke
Haha, yep
It's nice to see you value high quality bikes too. I see a lot of amazing garages with $100 walmart bikes or even just bare bones bike shop bikes. Love to see you enjoy fine bikes with your cars.
I think the concept is awesome, and if you have a need for a lift in the garage its a legit option. I have a few storage bins in the garage and think I would rather have 1000$ than anything in the bin. For wheels and tires its great, as a way to display ~15k in bikes its also pretty awesome
Thanks Matt I have been waiting on this video, will be ordering soon
Two Steady Racks mounted on that same wall would be ~$160? They would take up less room than this rack. This system is $1000 + $600 for the rack. Granted, this would be more useful for the cargo tray side of things, but for the bike rack situation, it makes no sense. You would need to get a second rack to put on your vehicle (for another $600 cuz it has to be OG spec). There is no way you are going to want to unmount the bikes, then mount the rack on the truck, then remount the bikes every time you go for a ride and then repeat when you return home? Yes, I understand he is trying to showcase a new product and show how it works, but it as a bike storage rack, I do not see the utility. Doesnt seem like the kickstarter was all that popular either with only 49 backers?
I agree on all points but it's matt so he'll have 2 racks lol
its a 12k$ bike over a 120k Porsche, 1600 seems trivial for storage :).
Actually I disagree on the two racks piece. Whether you own one or two racks you still need to remove a bike from a rack and put a bike on a rack. Who wants to drive around with an empty rack on their car? Where do you store the second rack? I would use this as an opportunity to store my bikes AND my bike rack!
Definitely for someone with too much time on their hands and too much money in their account.
@@improvedgarage Where I live, racks live on cars almost year round. Most people are using them frequently enough, that taking them on and off the car each time they are needed would be very inconvenient. I guess it depends on how often you use your rack. 1UP sells a pretty nice wall mount for your rack when you arent using it. Thats where I put my rack on the occasions when it needs to be removed. If you use something like the Steady Rack for the bikes in the garage, un mounting takes seconds. It would probably take less than 5 mins to take a bike off a Steady Rack, and mount the bike to a 1UP rack already on the car. Safely and securely installing a 1UP does take some time, and I cant imagine having to do it each time I go for a ride.
Again, I do think it does depend on how often the rack is used.
@@stephenleach4808 I guess that makes sense. My rack is never on my car unless I’m using it. In the mean time I need a place to store it.
My bikes hang from the ceiling because a steady rack would make it so you can’t park 3 cars in my 3 car garage.. there just isn’t enough room in modern garages.. so my bikes are on a 10’ ceiling and my wife can’t get them down they are just too high and too heavy for her to manage. This would be awesome because I could park under it and my wife could load and unload it for the kids. I have 10’ ceilings, but only about 18” of space between the cars and the walls in my 3 car
I have 2 of these as well! They are super awesome!
Here for the bike content.
If you put the bikes looking from the other side, you can avoid the lamp and up higher the ramp a few inches more when use 2 bikes
I ordered mine thru the kickstarter program. Will be in stalling soon and this video was great to see an actual install. I will be putting my snow blower on my cargo rack then park the truck underneath. Thanks for the video!
Thanks for the note Marisa! Look forward to seeing your application of storing your snow blower. Please send us pics!
Where the horizontal uno-strut not meant for 2 studs? 16 in apart? You could bolt left side on left stud and right side on right stud. Also help share the load on two studs instead of one. Would also be centered on the wall? Not sure if that system needed bolts down the center Chanel. If so just block the wall! Hahaha.
Also the stud joke was epic! 👍😏
Thanks for the comment, the system only needs one stud to hold it...The horizontal channels maintains stability at the top and bottom and keeps the channel from twisting when the load moves up the wall. The channels at the top and bottom are designed to bolt into the top and bottom sill plates.
works beautifully
Love your videos Matt, been watching since the very beginning! Love the production. Only thing I think you need in the beginning of this video is a gimbal!! It would perfect it
Your Yeti has a slacker head tube than that Giant so if you swap the Yeti to the outside and put the Giant on the inside, it might clear the light fixture.
Awesome channel. I also thought the first :45 seconds was a beer commercial:)
Hey Matt how about switching the direction of each bike this way the seat would be by the light fixture instead of the handlebar and you could go up a little bit higher.
In the new og designed house is the plan to have storage like this, or have a 2nd room / cupboard for all this and have the garage "empty"
Oh Mike and his jokes haha
13:37 My reaction to Matt's comment too 😂
I’ve had 3 steady racks for quite some time and they’re really great, especially if you don’t have the height for a lift solution.
I have them too, but this is way better. It's exactly what I was looking for in a bike rack.
@@ObsessedGarage I DO like it. Where I have my bikes it’s a low ceiling so this wouldn’t work for me. BUT, if I had the height and room to do this for 6 bikes I would haha.
We have a bike rack in development that will hold 6 bikes...We will keep Matt and his followers up to date when it becomes available.
@@topshelfstoragesolutions4497 sounds interesting, and always good seeing more products come to the market for the bikes! Looking forward to it!
I'd love to see a tire rack specific mount designed similarly to a wall mount as an accessory so one doesn't even need to tie the tires down. It should be as simple as placing them on and hoisting them up.
Great idea for a tire rack...We have it on our product development roadmap and will keep Matt and his followers up to date when it becomes available.
19:43 got me cracking up. Haha
You should make bike videos
Could they add an accessory so you could work on ya bike also like you have in the corner?
Good idea...We do have the bike maintenance accessory on our product development roadmap...We will let Matt and his followers know when it is available.
Oh that’s sick
Love how all your products you recommend and use are meant only for the “well off” 😕
What happened to today's podcast?
That’s how I install stuff too. Hire a professional so I can just stand there and look Marvelous🤩
Matt, how in the world have you not had a good quality garage door company come over and do a easy high lift modification to your garage doors. I did that, with shift mount openers, and it makes the garage doors nice and tucked up to ceiling.
One more thing to make sure you do on your custom build.
It would have allowed you to position that lift where ever, shortening the door by 3 or 4 feet.
That was on the list to have done, but I'm moving out.
This is outstanding! I have been looking for a solution like this for my winter wheels / tires! Will you be selling the cargo rack as well on the OG store? Thank you!
Yes, cargo rack should be up this week!
Glad you like the idea...Both the Lift 400 and the Cargo Rack are in stock.
A couple hooks from home depot would be a much cleaner look, that lift is so bulky
I wonder if you could cut the cord and direct wire the lift to something prettier. A normal decor switch even.
Kyle, good idea.
Do you think I could use it to lift up my snowblower - weight loads check out fine.
Yes, if the Snowblower is under 250lbs as the Cargo Rack weighs about 50lbs and combined they are at the 300lb limit of a single trolley.
Opinion on ceramic coating?
I would like to buy that fancy bike rack, where can I get one for my truck?
Nice 3 bike rack
I’d like to think if you can lift to attach or remove the accessories then you can certainly lift your bike to hang on a hook. Of your tires onto a shelf. 🤷🏻♂️
Ha, ha.. That is junk.
Did you try up different placement configurations with the bike because it looks almost possible where the seat or handlebar could sit just forward of the light housing. Hard to fully see with the video but since the rack allows for adjustment with placement it seems possible. Possibly the white bike on the wall side.
Powder coat the unistrut to match the walls.
Andrew, great idea and yes you can powder coat the unistrut whatever color you want. Just keep in mind that the trolley does roll up and down in the unistrut and overtime the powder coat may wear under the stainless steel wheels. I agree it would look great, you could tape off the inside portion of the track....Just some additional thoughts...Tabb
Some Foldable handle bars, and have an electrical engineer design a wireless remote and limit switch-that’s OG spec.
You don't have a bike specific shed/room where they sit on Park Tool stands, complete with bike specific tool chests, so they're easy to work on and clean?.... Matt, you can go deeper into cycling haha.
I could probably fit my Toyota Tercel under there no problem.
I wonder if you would have more clearance with the light if you flipped the bikes around. The back bike with the handle bars on the left and the front bike with the handle bars on the right.
You can make one out of a door opener.
Why did you guys cancel the Friday podcast yesterday?
Looks like a real PITA to install. I’d prefer SteadyRack.
Who makes the bike rack? I like the ease of use.
That is 1up USA. Made in Wisconsin. 100% USA made parts and no plastic. Only sold direct by manufacturer. They are the best.
Man, Matt really goes overkill on everything huh? I like this system BUT for anything else other than bikes. Plenty of room in that garage for a couple of Steady Racks which take seconds to load or unload compared to this where you have to faff around and hope to god you don't let the bikes hit the roof.
If installing on a wall stud, I don’t understand the need for the horizontal uni-strut at top and bottom. With a longer uni-strut you could mount motor in the attic and get a really clean look.
Anti twist from the initial torque of the motor.
Thanks for the comment, the system only needs one stud to hold it...The horizontal channels maintains stability at the top and bottom and keeps the channel from twisting when the load moves up the wall. The channels at the top and bottom are designed to bolt into the top and bottom sill plates. Mounting the motor unit in the attic is a great idea.
am sure matt has billions in the bank when have u ever seen matt use them mountain bikes ?? lol
Is that a Yeti SB130?
SB100
@@ObsessedGarage nice, just ordered an Alchemy Arktos 135. Its kind of an SB130 clone (sine suspension). Your bike looks like an art piece
I think Matty needs a shed
The next house ? When does it end.. 😂
Are there mountains in Florida for your mountain bike? JK, I’m sure there are some good bunny hills
The rack and lift needs to go to the floor. Your family should be able to use it easily. Rolling on and off the lifting
Guess your not planning to move out of this house now?
Moving out Feb 17th.
Another advantage of The Lift is that you can take it with you or sell it with the house.
@@ObsessedGarage why! So much time and money to put in this house to go do it all over again. Still loved the last house so much.
If these guys killed someone, they would never get caught.
Why’s there a vise mounted in the middle of a countertop?
To trigger you...
@@jeffc6832 🤣🤣🤣
No room in the kitchen
This is completely lame. It’s not space saving, it’s clunky, slow to remove bikes. Simple is very often better.
.
Show me better. I haven't seen it.
@@ObsessedGarage better is either the hanger you showed in the beginning or a hook from the ceiling- I ride multiple times per week on 3 different types of bikes - I want to grab and go, and not have to move cars. I will bet you a drink that you will not like this setup after a year. If you do. -then good for you. Appreciate the show and your work. I only disagree with two of your opinions 1. The bike lift in this video, 2. The garage builds you do are amazing. But where do you store your rakes, shovels, brooms, etc.. I have a zero turn as well . I said this before in a video of yours, and you essentially said you don’t keep junk in your garage, but most every homeowner- even those who are meticulous, have stuff that doesn’t go in a cabinet. I am getting ready for a garage remodel so I am watching all of your vids. I like the cabinets, lighting, flooring, etc... and of course the 911s. I have a GTS- want a GT3, but don’t want to pay 100k over sticker. Anyway, appreciate you and the show.
@@joesph9748 he removed the dropper post from his sb100 and stores it on that work stand mount in the background... the bike is just a toy and he is not a 'mountain biker' - just a guy that likes his stuff 'dialed'. I think the lift idea isnt so bad for someone living in places where riding is seasonal and they don't want to keep their rack on their vehicles i.e. in winter months. If you live in a place where you're riding frequently and year round, this isn't a great solution, but certainly a neat way to store your bike rack with bikes on it.
I think we can all agree the perfect solution is to store them somewhere else 😂
This is a waste of space and time. Hanging a bike on the ceiling is faster and yields the same results. If you can’t pick up a carbon bike maybe you should be riding an e-bike and then I see a use for this lift.
I agree with this, but if you did have more space than Matt, it would be pretty nice to put them up like this. I don't think it's the best idea / fit for a garage this size
The only waste of space and time I see here is your comment. Look at this from a business perspective and use your brain to realize that Matt is demonstrating this in his garage for a video. Maybe this isn't the perfect use case for it (in your opinion) but he wants to sell these to people who do have a use case for it.
@@jeffc6832 thank you
This doesn’t seem space-saving or efficient to me. It’s cool as hell though.
Seems like a waste of money. Why do the bikes need to be up in the air when the space below it is now wasted you can't store anything under the bikes because then you can't lower the bikes to the ground, so why wouldn't you just leave the bikes on the ground and make storage space above them. Some people just have too much money and don't know what to do with it.
Yeah...I'm not sure what to say about that. I don't want stuff on my floor.
Needs oil
That lift sounds rather loud and seems kind of clunky
Why are you lifting the bike to place it on a lift? That's what a lift is supposed to do --- so you don't have to lift the bike off the ground! That's way too much effort for the money and time invested.
Exercise bro...exercise. Lifting things is how you stay young.
If you were a cyclist, you'd be plenty fit enough to lift up a bike. It is how you stay young.
A little bit of a goof up with the editing at 25:50 and 26:40
Garage Gator GG820 for my 4 bikes at a 1/3 of the cost than this POS that has rails running up the side of the drywall. No Thanks. Its like the guy who sells you on a $100 bottle of wine that cannot compare to a $29.99 bottle that I could recommend.
I'm out. Wasted time and money. Unsubscribed
