Sports reviews of Topeak Dual Touch Bike Storage Stand

Customer Review: Doubt you'll find a better tension stand
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars

I'm very happy with this stand so far. I bought it to store my mountain bike and my road bike in my laundry room. The room has a slick vinyl floor and drywall ceiling, but all four walls are plaster against solid brick, so a wall-mounted rack wasn't practical. It is very important to place the stand directly under a ceiling joist. If you have flat ceilings, joists are easy to locate with a cheap stud-finder. To alleviate my worries about the base slipping on the vinyl floor, I took a scrap of non-slip rug pad (shelf liner would work too, something like this: Griptex Wonderliner Extra 20 by 60-Inch Roll, White) and cut out a circle the same size as the base of the stand to help create some friction with the floor. Then it's just a matter of getting the stand good and tight, which wasn't difficult.

Like some of the other commenters, I was concerned because the brake cable on my road bike runs underneath the top tube of the frame, which can lead to pressure on the cable when its sitting on the hooks. I solved this problem though. There are two metal fittings/guides welded to the underside of the frame that keep the cable in place. I just adjusted the width between the hooks to the same spacing, and now the bike sits on the aluminum fittings rather than the brake cable.

I am thinking about buying the Topeak Handlebar Stablizer for Bike Stand. I've had no problem with the road bike (which I keep on top since it's lighter), but the mountain bike wheel tends to turn sideways and get in the way as I'm walking by. I've got the unit close enough to the wall that the handlebar touches slightly, and that mostly keeps it in place. But seems like the stabilizer would be worth it.

My only complaint was with shipping. Amazon shipped it UPS and it arrived within 24 hours on standard shipping, so I believe it shipped from the Amazon warehouse in my town. Even so, the long, narrow box that was left on my front porch was almost demolished. One end was completely gone, and the main part had been taped back together. Even the enclosed box that contained the smaller components had broken open. Fortunately, all the parts were still there and the product itself didn't appear damaged. I've never had this problem with Amazon before, but I usually don't order oversized items.
