Question 1

Will this stand accomodate a 29er Mountain Bike with Suspension Forks and Disk Brakes?

Accepted Answer

Maybe not. Tire width might be a problem; it was for me. As others pointed out, this can only handle tires up to a certain width. My 27.5 by 2.25 MAXXIS does not fit well, and my 29.0 by 2.25 MAXXIS also does not fit. My 2.0 tires fit great. My gravel bike (42 width tire) works great too. My family has nine MTB in my our garage so I had a good chance to see what MTB tire works and what does not. The manufacturer advises this item for up to 2.3 tires but my brand new MAXXIS 2.25 will not work. This might be related to the side knob design. Who knows. I’m going to try the larger version and see if that works better for my standard MTB tires.

Question 2

I'm trying to put a bike on top of a ikea bookcase/room divider. 
(http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/00208646/#/80208652)
Would this product be the best option? I live in LA so it must be earthquake proof.

Accepted Answer

What is the purpose for putting the bike at that location? Storage or decoration? I would not advise using this rack in either option. It's does a great job holding a bike when used on the ground. It's my favorite rack for quick and easy storage. For you, if your looking for bike storage I would use a bike hoist system with pulleys and a rope, may can be found on Amazon, I use one as well. If it's for decoration, look for a bicycle display stand and fasten one to both the front and back tire and to the top of the bookcase using earthquake straps and fasteners.

Question 3

can it be used outdoors on a composite deck?

Accepted Answer

Shouldn't be a problem so long as your deck is reasonably leveled because the rakk is pretty stable.  The rubber end-caps on the legs will keep the deck from being scratched if you slide it around a bit while the bike is in the stand.

Question 4

Can I put my back wheel in this stand then lift the front tire up to lean against a wall so that my bike takes up less space in my apartment?

Accepted Answer

I wouldn't personally do that for fear of bike falling to the side with that much weight above the little stand
