BIKE TOWER 5  instructions manual

Thank you for purchasing Minoura 

BIKE TOWER 5

.

This is the bike storage stand which can hold 2 bikes on its cradle hook at two different heights. If you add 2 

more optional cradles behind the pole, you can hold up to 4 bikes on a pole.

The main pole is fully adjustable from 1.7 meter (5' 7") to 3.1 meter (10' 2") between the floor and the ceiling of 

your room. And the top rubber cup is spring loaded so you can install BIKE TOWER 5 at anywhere you need 

without any tool.

IMPORTANT NOTES

• Please read this instructions manual carefully before use.
• BIKE TOWER is the storage stand for ordinary 2-wheel bicycles only.  Do NOT use it 

for any other purposes, for example, displaying heavy electric bikes or tandem bikes, 
attaching wall panel or using the pole horizontally to hook down the bikes.

• BIKE TOWER is installed between the floor and ceiling using a strong spring and the 

tension this provides.  BIKE TOWER must be installed firmly on a solid floor and ceiling 

using a supporting beam or load bearing area of the ceiling.  Failure to do so may cause 
damage to your ceiling, bikes, BIKE TOWER, and may cause personal injury.

Set the BIKE TOWER up vertically 

from floor to ceiling.  Make sure 
the BIKE TOWER is not slanted.  
Slanted installation may cause the 
BIKE TOWER to fall down, causing 
damage and/or injury.

When setting the main telescoping 
pole, make sure to extend it until the 
red warning sign no longer shows.  
The warning sign is located just 
below the upper rubber cup.

Red Warning Sign

Set BIKE TOWER firmly 
against a supporting beam 
or load bearing area of the 
ceiling.
Failure to do so will cause 
damage to your ceiling.
