This Bike Hanger by Leisure Sports easily stores your bikes and ladders overhead and out of the way. Smooth pulleys and latches make lifting heavy items a snap, while the exclusive rope locking mechanism prevents unwanted release and can suspend up to 100lbs. You can mount this ceiling bike rack as pictured on a 2x4 and screw the 2x4 to the joist, but you can also mount it right to the joist itself.
