Bike Storage

[andyfromotley]

OK, five bikes in the garage is becoming somewhat tiresome, particulaly as i have to keep my new one seperate to avoid scratching etc.

Whats the best way to store em. Space isnt a huge issue as i have a double garage. I have seen some metal bracets that fit on the wall that you park the wheel into (like the ones councils used to provide) but they seem a bit dear.

I am sure you ingeneous bunch will have some answers.

Thanks

andy

This thread gives some ideas, the single wall hooks seem to be about £10 each and are very good. I've got the Lifeline ones from Wiggle and also a couple of the Halfords own brand(Bikehut?) ones. Heaviest bike I hand is about 36lbs and had no issues with that.

pulleys - hang some of them up and pull them out of the way like an old fashioned clothes airer.... You can buy the kit to do this - just needs a good strong beam to fit it to..

Chuck the cars out of the double garage.....

8 bikes and a kids electric trike in my garage....plus spare wheels...

Wall hangers.....? or those free standing bike stands -
