The dog bone connectors attach securely to your wall, and the rack arms connect to these using the supplied confirmat screws and hex key. The middle holes on the dog bones provide the connection points – simply drill, mount the dog bones to the wall with the coach screws and plugs, then attach the rack arms for instant bicycle storage.
