It’s gonna be the back of a park space for a car, so my biggest fear is either the screws or the pedal loosing themselves and the bike hitting the back of the car probably breaking the back window.
It sounds like a stupid fear, but in the last garage, the bike rack screws loose and my bike ended in the floor (not hitting anything expensive luckly) at least three times. It was a brick wall and I don’t know who was the idiot fixing the bike racks to it but it worries me I become that idiot, but c’mon how hard can it fucking be?
the right size masonry bit, screws, and plastic sleeve anchors to grip the hole in the brick might do it, but the metal style anchors are much stronger if you’re worried about it coming loose. either beefy masonry screw anchors or the expanding metal sleeve kind
that seems pretty solid but it’s a bit rude to anyone else using that hallway
no one else uses that hallway right
you gotta remember that bikes are absurdly light, so they can cope with real bullshit condiditions that’d be fucked for other vehicles

if you’re worried about falling on the car maybe you oughta perch it directly on the car if practicable
Tight space, low sheet-metal roof, not my car :/
if you don’t do it right it can be hard to solidly screw into masonry.
If your new place has solid wood to screw into I wouldn’t worry about it much.
Nope, it’s 40 yo masonry, classical type of brick, those solid small orange ones made of cooked mud
ah
