Hornit CLUG Bike Clip Indoor & Outdoor Bicycle Storage Rack & Mount System, 5 Sizes, Easy to install

When we moved to a new home I wanted to find a good solution for our bicycles in the garage, so I picked one of these up to give it a try.It works fine in general, but I have a few minor issues that would cause me to not buy any others:*If you bump into the bike it is likely to fall from the mount*you really need to keep your tires well inflated to avoid the bike falling on its own. Not a problem with bikes that are used often enough, but I have at least one that gets little use and this causes an issue.Note that I "fixed" these issues slightly by adding some velcro behind the strap around the wheel. This solution is a little bit of a pain and makes using the mount far less convenient than it could be.Given the cost of the CLUG, I will likely be using another solution, such as cheaper screw-in rubber coated hooks instead.

My roommate and I needed a way to efficiently store our multiple bikes without taking up a lot of space in our apartment or putting anchor holes in the wall. I got 3 of these CLUGs and installed each to a section of painted baseboard trim. I then used CommandStrips to adhere the trim to the wall (very solid hold against sheering forces). When its time to move, the CommandStrips will pull free without damaging the paint and I can take my snazzy little racks to their new home.With a small guard at the back-tire position to avoid marring the base of the wall, the bikes hang perfectly, neatly, and I didn't have to endanger my damage deposit.The CLUGs also work as advertised. I've had one bike fall over the last 6 months because I had a leak in the front tire and it went flat. Keep your tires inflated (at least above 15 psi I reckon), and you'll be fine.

I've purchased the small and medium size Clugs for differing tire sizes, and had fitment issues with both products. The Clug says it can fit a range of tire sizes in its description. However, if your tires are on the smaller size of the spectrum for your particular Small/Medium/Large Clug, I can virtually guarantee it will not fit. It will slide in, and then slide right back out without being held in place like the product is supposed to do. So just keep that in mind before you buy. If your bike is more in the middle or upper range of the dimensions, then this should work fine.Side note - The first Clug I purchased was missing the wall anchor and had to be exchanged. Wasn't a big ideal but still bothersome to buy a new product that doesn't include everything it's supposed to come with.

I bought the Hornit to keep my bike upright (I'm clipping the front tire on it while both tires on the ground, horizontally) in my condo and unfortunately it was a disappointing purchase.For starters, there is no room for error when drilling holes for this thing. I was about a millimeter off on one of the screws and had to drill a larger hole in order to get the screw to line up with it. And the size of the hole you need to drill is much bigger than I had anticipated...Also, one of the screws I received was defective so thankfully I had one laying around that I could use.My bike tire is 32mm so I purchased the smallest Hornit after reading a review that said it would be better to have it snug than too loose. With my tire right on the edge of the small one and the next size up, I just don't think it's fully compatible with my bike. It takes some force to get it to clip in and once it's clipped, if I tip my bike over a few inches, it falls right over. Maybe the next size up would be better but I'm concerned that one would be too loose.I guess it will sort of do it's job as long as one handle bar uses the wall for support. I can't imagine that this thing could hold my bike up if I was trying to prop the front wheel up to hold it vertically. My bike is a Giant Escape so maybe it's just too heavy for the size of this clip.It's definitely overpriced at a $20 price point. $10 would be much more reasonable for a small piece of plastic and two screws.

These things are awesome!I have two mountain bikes, and I used to have them stood up in the corner of my dining room, with all of my gear just thrown all over in that same area. Eventually, I just got sick of how it looked. It was time to make a change, and after seeing these featured on YouTube by Seth's Bike Hacks, I decided to pick two of them up and see what I could do.Installation was fairly simple. I followed the instructions and headed to my local hardware store to buy the correct size of drill bit. After that, installation was a snap! My tires fit snugly into the CLUG and I have no worries about them coming loose and the bikes falling onto the floor (I mounted them vertically to save space). All in all, these are amazing! Check out the photos of what I was able to do!

Purchased this as a minimalist solution to bike storage in a very small bedroom (pics attached). Installation is wonderfully simple - I used the included template to mark spots to drill to put small holes for the drywall anchors. Tap in the drywall anchors with a hammer. Then take a phillips head screwdriver to put the screws into those. It holds the bike as designed. The tires shown in pics are 25mm Continental Gatorskin tires but I feel that 23 or 28 would also fit fine in this size of CLUG.It seems to hold securely enough, but my only critique/concern during installation is that the drywall anchors felt like they were going to bend or break when tapping them in, I wish they were a bit more substantial/sturdy so that the apparatus felt more secure in drywall. I would recommend you put this into a stud where possible thus bypassing the need for the plastic anchors entirely, but that wasn't an option for me. If it rips/falls out in the future, I will just have to grab a couple new drywall anchors and move it over an inch left or right in the same wall.In short, buy this.

This is a great product, without doubt. My only criticism is the tyre size range recommendation.We have tyres that are 2.35" so i bought the MTB XL as they start from 2.3", however, this doesn't sit snug and hold the bike wheel vertically. You can balance it precariously but the slightest nudge will knock the bike out resulting in a loud crash! (first hand experience). That said, if you put teh bike up and then angle the front wheel to one side it holds it better.We also bought some mtb size ones and the 2.362 fits really snug and secure so I would recommend going for a smaller size if you are right at the low end of the size range.We also have two bikes with 1.95" wheels which is at the low end of the mtb size range (starting at 1.75"), and these again need to be angled to feel secured. If I hadn't already fitted them all, I might try to exchange them for the hybrid size, but I figure we'll get bikes with bigger tyres in the future so going to make do.Just wanted to share my size findings in case they help anyone. All said and done, they are REALLY easy to fit and do a great job of holding the bikes. Especially mine which fits perfectly! ;o)

I’ve only given it 3 stars as I ride 2.85 tyres but in my opinion the appropriate sized clug is a tad to big. I therefore used an old ratchet strap around the whole thing just for extra security. My tire is properly inflated so it’s not because I’m riding low pressures either. Packaging is great, comes with all the necessary bits and the cardboard box with the drill points is a neat touch. I like it but in hindsight the size down would probably have been the better option. At £17 though it’s not something I’d buy another to replace it with. My tyre size was only just in to the largest size but it clearly was hence my purchase. The strap, although not as aesthetically pleasing, does the job so if you found yourself in the same sort of situation it’s not useless. It’s not until it’s on the wall either that you can see how the bike ‘pulls’ on the clug. By the time you’ve installed you’ve used the screws and plugs so sending back wouldn’t probably be an option.

Got this a week or so ago. Easy to put up.I took note of a few of rhe comments that if the tyre deflates if tou don't use your bike for a while, so when I attached it to the wall I put a velcro strip behind it and made sure the screws went through that as well.I tested it by letting the tyre down whilst attached to the clug and it stayed firmly in place.I like the minimalist look of the clug on the wall as it is in my conservatory, which occasionally gets used when friends come round & if needed the bike can be relegated elsewhere for a while.Would buy again.

I bought the small for road bike, and large and xl for mtb (or xl and xxl) can't actually remember and currently not accessible to check). Road bike one is perfect, tincy and near invisible. The mtb two were bought because I wasn't sure which size would work best, my tyre came to the extremes of both; too big for the large and too thin for xl. I used the xl however, if i touch the bike it unseats. Easily got round this by putting a ribbon behind the white bracket part and tying the wheel in. All i need now is some sort of removable waterproof protection for the wall, as my bikes are in the house and the rear tyres sit on an painted wall. I would definitely get these again, regardless of sizing issues now I've found a way round it.

Works fine although it is a little tough to attach the bike and feels like it might break at some point. However this is probably because I've got awkward in-between 32mm tyres which falls between the road and hybrid version. I opted for road as was worried the hybrid would be too loose. Possibly this was the wrong decision? But it's been opened now and attached to the wall so can't really send it back to swap for the larger size to find out.
