Installing The Lift - Motorized Garage Bike Lift

- Опубликовано: 2 апр 2022
- Mike and I get The Lift installed at my new interim house. I still think this is one of my favorite discoveries. It seems like good, ol' fashioned overkill, but I think it's worth every penny.

You should have moved the mount closer to the right as close to the wall as possible. You could have mounted the remote on the right wall and the door would swing fully open.
Definitely a bike rack for people who don't ride bikes lol.
Why do you say that? I ride my bike and I am interested in this. I am not sure if I have a suitable location for it but it is a good idea.
@@motluv Just because most people I know who ride would spend $40 on a rope and pully from Home depot and put the other $1400 into a new wheelset or front fork ;)
@@deserteagle10 I get it and understand.
@@deserteagle10 Your statement is as ridiculous and silly as the reasons you gave for making it.
You simply have no basis to make your comments other than you can’t afford the lift. It’s okay if you can’t, perfectly fine using cheaper alternatives. Nobody knocking you for using what you use, but you feel the need to come take a crap all over someone else’s solution? Come on, man. Really?
I know at least a dozen professional cyclists and twice that many aggressive amateurs who ride every day 365. Some of these people don’t even have a bike rack or a garage. Yet, they have thousands and thousands invested in a single bike + gear. A few have very elaborate solutions far beyond what Matt is showing here and exponentially more expensive. While most just have bike mounts or hangers in the garage. Cheap and simple. But one thing is for sure, NONE of them would turn down this lift.
I’m sorry but your “lols” comment wasn’t funny. It only show lack of vision and possibly ignorance.
@@Reaper-Jim no he’s expressing his opinion which is what happens when someone posts a review on UTube. I also think it’s a POS. Matt’s opinions are typically right on but for me this is clunky, slow and a waste of money vs buying something simple that hangs the bike. I ride every day so for me this would be very inconvenient but if u like it....more power to you. I would bet hard money people who buy this will not like it after a year or so...
It wastes so much space though. That whole area has been taken up by that lift. Seriously, use steady racks and that's only a 1/4 of the space taken.
My grandmother loves hers
@@supermotos For the same people
Looks great
About to pull the trigger on this one. I’d like to take it one step further and have the track powder coated in satin black
Just a MEH on this one. Kids will slam the door open and hit the bikes, lift is kinda janky if you move the bikes side to side. You'll probably end up putting stuff underneath them anyway and have to move the junk before you can use the lift. Wont use the bikes as much when there up and out of the way. A highend bike stand you can store/display and work on the bike is the way to go. Still watched the whole video.
Do you know what kind of pulley that is inside there? I already have a similar setup with unistrut and pulley but it's not electric. I could just mount a pulley vertical above. But I can't seem to find any that look like that. How does the pulley cable get from the bottom of the black box up to the top and not get tangled or caught on anything? Usually when rolling up a cable it has the wheel horizontal. Any help would be appreciated.
Hey Matt, The thing has so many possibilities. you know what would be a neat if there’s space in the attic you could Cut A hole in the ceiling and make a cubby so the bikes could go up into the cubby and clear the door and still keep the attic separate from the garage totally not necessary just a crazy idea have a good one as always and Mike if you read this great work.
He already has the Majic Attic Lift which does just that. ;-)
Are the bikes blocking the security camera?
If it were a bit more to the right prob would’ve been better. Control unit on right wall. But overall useful especially for kids bikes too.
I was thinking the same - further away from the door. And the controller on the sidewall. The last thing I want is to load dirty/wet bikes up and stand underneath them when all the stuff is dripping.
You know matt....Symmetry doesn't create ocd lol..
They put it there so the track would be on a stud, I think they discussed it at the start of the video.
Do the bikes block the camera now?
Has Matt seen the kickstarter for the T1 Tomahawk Professional Digital Tap Measure?
That looks pretty awesome.
That is clean looking. Nice job.
It’s the 1up for me.
Another piece of Awesomeness added in style. Very cool.
A shed in the yard would have been a much better storage idea for storage.
Not really if I had a three car garage I wouldn’t wanna shed Messing up the look of my backyard also a decent shed would probably be a minimum of $3000 this thing is less then 1000 so I’d have to disagree it’s not a better idea
@@johnmbell4642 I’ll take my shed over that lift any day.
@@GearReviewDepot but Matt doesn’t sell sheds
@@johnmbell4642 And? You know you’re allowed to buy stuff Matt doesn’t sell right?
@@GearReviewDepot that’s not the way I understand it but this conversation has giving me a great idea I’m going to buy a car capsule which is kind of like a shed andi’m going to buy a lift then I’m gonna put the capsule (Uninflated) on the lift and Store it neatly out of the way. Now that’s the best idea of all………
I feel like I watched you do this in your old garage ?
Every ga-ragh needs a Mike. I mean, every homeowner, needs a Mike.
Where did you buy your bike rack for your vehicle at?

When can we get a e36 update video?
Im planning on doing a wash and talk on it soon.
That was a horrible spot, behind the door, to put that bike lift.
That is one thing I am surprised about. I thought Matt would have went with another solution because the door makes it no “dialed in”.
That has got to be the most ridiculous and cumbersome way to store two bikes in a garage that I’ve ever seen. Especially in this application, it interfered with the door. I understand that it was a paid partnership with the lift company, but there is no way you’re going to keep that there. You know it’s ridiculous and out of place too.
Do you even ride your yeti SB 100? I have the same bike, check out Onyx hubs. Totally quiet instant engagement uses sprag clutch!!
Still can’t believe this Channel hasn’t gotten million subscribers yet
Needs an app to control the motor up and down
It would be cool if you could list what tools were used during your projects so they could also be purchased in the OG store. I've got the Sonic tools from you and one of the Milwaukees Mike was using, but I don't recognize the other one.
These are the tools Mike was using in the video:

@@ObsessedGarage Thanks! You should add it to all your videos. I'm sure folks would watch and buy. Be well.
👍
This seems like an overkill. Kradl lift is much simpler and way less expensive.
Badly place door lol
Some people just don’t seem to get the concept of this auto-bike lift. Wether it’s the cost, functionality or look … I think it’s going way over their heads. It’s not about the cost, the space savings, it’s functionality or any of that. It’s about it looking badass and getting bikes out of the way. That’s it. It does this at 100%.
Look, I spent $40 on a bike rack 20 years ago and I’m still using it today. Will I ever buy anything like this? No, of course not. But don’t hate on something just because you think it’s overpriced or not functionally sound. I think the lift looks cool as hell. It’s not for me but I appreciate it existing.
👍
Disagree - the people who don’t get it actually ride their bikes. It’s cumbersome, over priced, slow, I could keep going. It’s a POS. But if you like it - it’s your money....
@@joesph9748 Clearly you didn’t actually read my comments, but it’s your words. Do what you like.
