Fat tire bike room mounts

I’m looking to see if anyone’s had experience mounting/hanging their fat tire bikes on mounts like the ones in the images?

My new apartment has mounts similar to these and I’m wondering if it’ll hold up my 60lb fat tires...

I just installed the Steadyrack Fat Bike Rack in my Garage for my +70lbs Radrover: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01CF59PPS/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o08_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

It holds my ebike with Topeak rack and battery still installed. It also swings 160 degrees if you need space around the hanging ebike. It only took a few minutes to install the 4 bolts into the wood stud for the upper piece and two smaller bolts for the lower guide for the rear tire (used drill to make guide holes for bolts first).

I would be a little worried about your wall mount if there are only two bolts, if the bolts are not thick enough for the extra ebike weight, or if you can't verify the bolts are secure into the stud.

My current setup is provided by the building I live in, so I wouldn't have any options to install my own. I may have to take a look and see how secure the installation is and make my decision then. Or I did also see some bikes locked to the railings in the bike room. We'll see. Thanks.
