Bike storage made simple. Unique technology lifts and stores your bike without electricity or clumsy ropes and pulleys. Simple to use and install, with Kradl your bike is ready when you are.
The rubberized strap and proprietary clasp safely secures around the bike frame.
Gently pull the shift cord to switch Kradl into lift mode.
Push the bike down toward the floor to engage lift.
As Kradl pulls the bike upward, guide the bike to store it near the ceiling or at desired height.
Simply pull the bike down when ready to go for a ride.
How much can Kradl lift?
There are two models to choose from: the 25lb model, which is designed for bikes weighing upto 25lbs; and the 40lb model, which is designed for bikes weighing 26-40lbs.
How high can Kradl go?
The 25lb model has 12' of travel and is best used for ceiling heights upto 14'. The 40lb model has 10' of travel and works best with ceilings upto 12'.
Does Kradl work with bikes that have slanted or step-through frames?
Yes. The proprietary Kradl harness safely secures to step-through frames and top tubes that are slanted.
Can Kradl be installed on pitched ceilings?
Yes. Kradl can be mounted on sloped ceilings.
How is Kradl installed?
Kradl attaches to a ceiling stud using only two lag screws that are provided with each Kradl.
Customer uses 25lb Kradl mounted to sloped ceiling to hang bike in modern home.
Customer uses 40lb Kradl and straps bike wheels to the wall to create even more space.
Customer showcases mountain bike using 40lb Kradl on a reclaimed wood ceiling.
Customer uses two 25lb Kradls to hoist classic beach cruiser upside down.
Kradl works great for E-bikes weighing 40lbs. or less, but what if your E-bike is too heavy? Don't lose hope, there may be a solution for you. Many E-bikes will weigh 40lbs. or less if you first remove the battery. Alternatively, we have had customers successfully use two Kradls in tandem to lift bikes weighing in excess of 40lbs. We are not going to lie, Kradl was not originally designed to be used like this, but it may be a good alternative if you have a heavy E-bike.

Clever Simple Versatile
Kradl inventor and avid outdoorsman, Robert, lay flatlining from a massive heart attack on a San Diego mountain hiking trail. Miraculously he collapsed within 100 yards of forest service helipad in the vicinity of where a San Diego Fire & Rescue helicopter was on a training flight. Thanks to the quick actions of his hiking buddies that scrambled down to a location with cell service, the helicopter was dispatched to Robert's location. A first responder used a defibrillator and triggered a faint pulse. With no time to spare, Robert was airlifted to a nearby hospital and straight into heart surgery.
Stir crazy yet hesitant to venture back out on remote trails following his near death experience, Robert turned to biking. It didn't take many rides, however, for him to realize that he needed a better way to get his bike out from his packed garage. An engineer by trade, he set off to design a better bike storage solution and Kradl was born.
In gratitude to the emergency responders responsible for saving Robert's life, a portion of the proceeds from every Kradl sold in an amount capable of powering a rescue helicopter upto ten kilometers is donated to charitable groups and organizations that support first responders in the places where you ride.
Clever Technology - Kradl uses proprietary technology to lift bikes weighing as much as 40lbs without electricity. While other solutions require that you lift your bike or hoist it up with a rope and pulleys, Kradl does the heavy lifting for you.
Simple - Kradl's elegant design requires only two mounting screws for mounting to a single load supporting joist or cross-beam.
Versatile - The lack of any electrical requirements together with Kradl's compact size and its unique bike harness that uses a single point of attachment means that Kradl can be mounted in places where other bike storage solutions just don't work. Hanging a bike perpendicular, parallel and across ceiling joists, from a sloped ceiling and in barns or sheds are just a few of the many options.
There is a sense of accomplishment and personal satisfaction that comes from seeing a dream become reality, but by far the best part of this experience has been the interactions with customers. There are times when a customer will call frustrated that his or her new Kradl doesn't seem to work. More often than not the unique technology used by Kradl is causing some confusion, but, with a little guidance, he or she is soon experiencing Kradl lifting his or her bike for the first time. Hearing the elation in a customer's voice during that "a-ha" moment and genuine surprise from the experience of how Kradl pulls a bike skyward never gets old.
