Would it be possible to hold two bikes vertically by 1 or 2 wheels, rather than horizontally, from this? Don't have much width to work with.

One bike yes. Two bikes, no. The bar does not expand that high to reach a ceiling high enough to hold 2 bikes vertically. Also, I don't think you could hold one bike on one side of the bar and the second bike on the other. I would imagine the bikes would brush up against each other because the hooks don't stick out far enough.

Yes... However you may only be able to get one bike on the rack depending how far your tire sticks out. I moved the tire mount , witch is on the bumper, to one side worked fine.

You could expand it if they make a kit, I don't know. You could definitely buy two and make a ten bike rack and have two end pieces left over...

This is bike rack will not support the weight of two bicycles.No you cannot open your trunk the straps will loosen.It is flimsy .I returned my rack

The total length of the hook from the wall to the tip is 12.5", so given the clearance you would need for the pedals, etc. I would think only one bicycle would fit. I do not have personal experience with this since I use the ones I have for hanging tools. If it is an adult bicycle and you want to hang them horizontally, you would want to use two hooks, not for the weight - a single hook could handle the weight - but for balance. If you hang one vertically by a wheel, handlebar stem, etc. one would do fine.

I suppose you can get an adapter to do so-------that would cause the rack to be extended out further and not sure that is a good idea. I also think that it might wobble around a bit unless you could get a bolt through connection.

It would probably depend on the weight. I don't know what the maximum weight limit is for the rack. It holds 3 bikes so bikes don't really weigh that much.

This rack stand can easily accommodate the larger cruiser wheels. I have two mountain bikes with larger than normal wheels and there is still room. The width of each wheel holder is about 3 1/2 inches and flexes. Hope this helps.

Not a good idea. you cannot sit on back rack so no where for 2nd person to sit.but we are pleased with the bike so far with one rider at a time.

Unless the bike is ultra heavy it's no problem hanging it this way. The weight is actually distributed between the front wheel and to a lesser degree rear wheel from a "vector" stand pt.

I can tell you it will hold 4 ordinary bikes. The newer E-Mountain bikes which I purchased this for, it has issues with securing. The unit is very heavy and cumbersome. If you are not use to holding weight up and aligning, you may need two people. The unit is built very well.

Why? Its designed to hold bikes horizontally. it will probably hold a 22 lb bike vertically, but you might have unexpected issues by using it outside its intended design.

Not sure but I will tell you the it has a dual hook - a metal bar with a hook at each end - from which you hang the frame of the bike. If you hung one wheel from one hook it would be off center, and I don't think a wheel would hang from both hooks because the hooks are too far apart. The bar with the hooks on it is adjustable in that you can make it horizontal, vertical or anywhere in between but if you turn it vertical, the hooks would be facing left and right (versus up and down) and would not secure the bike. It is a fantastic stand though I will say, but you need to secure it to your ceiling with a screw or two because it expands and contracts just a bit with change in temperature in a garage and could come loose. Hope that helps.

There is a vertical support, but doesn't work well. I modified the vertical bar where it would grab the tire. I used some square tube, long bolt and but. Also I use strap to strap the bikes to the rack. Hope that helps.

it works great with two bikes but I have not tried just one on top. I would think it would be unstable with all the weight on top. You could put one on the bottom by itself but that lowers the center of gravity. I hope this helps. One other thing you could do is clamp the rack to the wall and then you could put one on top.

The platform has enough area to lift a bike with both wheels off the ground without a problem. Two of them might give you more stability, but I don't see how you could fit two of the jacks under the bike and lift by the frame. You bike is different than mine, obviously, but if I could even get two underneath, I'd be lifting partly by the exhaust pipes, and they'd probably get damaged in the process. I think you'd be better off with paddocks.

I believe so (I only have two of these though). My stands came separately, then I got the small connector piece that I can use to connect the two however I want to. So the bikes can line up beside each other, or every-other-one can face the opposite direction, or probably some other ways too.
