The design is geared towards bicycle enthusiast and beginners, that either have more then one bike or are restricted by apartment size. The product's main goal is SPACE SAVER. The answer is, placing the bicycle in a vertical direction by hanging the rear tire on a hook like arm. Works similarly to a coat hanger. Features adjustable arms for fitment for wide variety of bikes. Also has built in wheels, into the base, for moveability and can store bicycles in a closet spaces. Easy to use and it is a stand alone unit requiring zero mounting. Just assemble and hang your bike up.
