How to measure your bike
When deciding between our different bike racks, it comes down to tire diameter (A), wheel diameter (B) and if you have fenders/mudguards.
Match your tire width and wheel diameter to our bike rack types to find the best Steadyrack to suit your bike. Learn more about measuring your bike.

Will hanging my bike damage the bike frame or forks?
Hanging a bike in Steadyrack will not cause any damage to your bike. No part of the bike frame touches the rack, only the front tire, which is cradled in the steel arms.
How does the Steadyrack handle carbon wheels on road bikes?
One of the main features of our design is the fact that it is the most suitable rack for carbon wheels. There is less pressure on the bike than when you’re riding it and it is certainly better than hooks. The wheel is cradled between the two support arms and the tire cushions the wheel and bike. There should be absolutely no need to do any maintenance on your rims or wheels if you use a Steadyrack.
Can I lock my bike to a Steadyrack?
You can lock your bikes into our racks with a D Lock or Chain lock. This is sufficient to prevent opportunist theft and adequate if your bikes are stored in a private carpark. If your bikes are in a location fully accessible to the public, we recommend installing a bracket or a steel rail to the wall underneath the rack to attach a locking device to. As with everything, take caution when storing your bike in a public place, as professional thieves can generally get around any locking system.
Do the racks swing freely?
Steadyracks are assembled using a specific tension for the nuts (torque setting = 5nm) that holds the central spine to the top and bottom mounting brackets. This setting is designed to give sufficient tension to the pivot to ensure bikes can be loaded on any angle without the rack moving around too much. When you remove the 2 plastic caps from the top and bottom, the nuts are exposed. You can loosen both nuts to free up the rack more, and equally you can tighten them to lock the rack into position. We recommend you maintain them so the racks are stiff but can still be pivoted. The rack can be quite stiff when you use it for the first few times but it does loosen over time. This is due to the type of fibre washers we use to assist with the stiffening effect.
Can I lock my Steadyrack into one position or any angle?
It is not possible to lock the rack solid in one position. However, you can tighten the nuts so the rack will become stiff and will effectively hold it in the one position. To do this, first remove the two plastic mounting bracket covers (End Caps). Next, tighten the two nuts that attach the central pivot bar to the mounting brackets. If you follow these steps, we recommend checking your fixings carefully and making sure they are very secure as any sideways pressure on the rack could damage the mounting bracket.
Are Steadyracks suitable for apartments?
Yes our racks are ideal for apartment buildings where the parking is in a secure environment and not exposed directly to the elements.
