About Allen Bike Racks
In 1967, after a few years of working on the aerospace technology for the Apollo missions, Dick Allen was out of a job. Government cutbacks led Allen, a Harvard-trained physicist, to transform his garage hobby into a new industry. A cycling enthusiast, inventor, and family man, Allen had a personal need for a bike-carrying device. On weekends, he would take his sons and wife to Cape Cod or the White Mountains of New Hampshire. What proved difficult time and again was the transport of his family’s bicycles. Rather than fight through inconvenience with twine and a dinged car, Allen sought an answer for himself as well as a market in which he foresaw major growth possibilities.
Always a pathfinder, Allen took to work in his Lincoln, Massachusetts garage in search of a more efficient way to transport bikes. Drafting designs during the day and constructing them throughout the night, he put together a model made of electrical conduit, metal strapping, and fire hose casings (for padding). At first, the Allens’ tested the prototype on weekend excursions. Finding the first trunk-mounted rack to be a success, Dick started Allen Bike Racks. Dealer acceptance came quickly, and by 1971 Allen Bike Racks were sold nationally through a number of major bicycle distributors. Today, the company owns over three dozen patents and offers a versatile product line of bike racks while Dick’s son Alex now owns and operates the business. What started out as a small garage run operation now operates three warehouses nationally, two factories abroad, and has products sold in more than a dozen countries around the world.

Short rack is short sighted….. Mom always told me “if you don’t have something nice to say, keep your mouth closed”. Well, I hope to say this nicely enough that she won’t find cause to scold…..I have an Allen bike rack (for my car) and have used it for years. It’s low-tech, it’s solid and it gets the job done. With that in mind, it was not a difficult decision to buy the wall rack. I mounted it and went to put my two bikes on it and…. no-way…… My wife and I both have mountain bike types. The crossover…
THOUGHT ABOUT MAKING MY OWN WALL RACK BUT THIS RACK IS MOST COST/TIME EFFECTIVE This is a nice wall rack for your bike. At this price point it doesn’t make sense to try to build one yourself. I love it for one bike, for two bikes I imagine it would be a bit tight. Very easy to hang with a single screw into a wall stud. The only thing that didn’t work well for me were the provided self adhesive foam strips. I think they are meant to be dual purpose. (1) To protect your wall (2) To keep the wall rack from swinging (moving) about the single hanging screw which it will do…
TIGHTLY Fits 2 Adult Bikes Was able to fit 2 mountain bikes (one men’s Gary Fisher, one women’s Liv Giant) on the wall mount, albeit very tight.Try different combinations and configurations to see why it works for you.In the end we decided to keep only one bike on the rack and one on the floor.It’s not easy getting the second bike mounted on the rack. Too much time and energy wasted.Also, no relief between the two bikes. Literally, right up against each other. Pedals get tangled,…
