Reddit mentions: The best bike racks & stands

you have a lot of options, but they all boil down to the question of whether you want to store your bike horizontally (e.g. holding the bike up by the top tube, like with this mount), or vertically (usually holding the bike by the front wheel, like this mount).

i prefer vertical mounts because they take less wall space, but it means stuff might tumble out of my saddle bag or panniers if i leave things in them when i mount my bike. i've gotten in the habit of removing these bags on my way into my apartment, but once in a while i forget. but horizontal mounts take up a relatively enormous amount of wall space. on the other hand, if you're proud of your bike, it can be a nice way to show it off i guess.

i use the vertical mount i linked above for my apartment, but my office has this track thing with some hooks and we can hold up 3 bikes in the 48" track (with the middle big upside down to avoid the handlebars knocking into each other). they're all pretty great, and i have no complaints except that you'll want to figure out what to do to protect the wall from the wheels sooner rather than later. even relatively smooth tires will start eating up the wall where they rest, if they're there without any protection.

there are also more aesthetically themed mounts both on the horizontal and vertical sides of things. i tend to prefer understated kind of industrial looks, though, so the white metal hook really pleased me and i didn't save links to other products i saw.

the major takeaway is (i hope) that you have tons of dimensions to work out, and most of them are personal preference. if you don't have any wall space, then horizontal mounts might be out of the question, but beyond those sorts of things, as long as you have a stud you can mount just about whatever you want. road bikes aren't very heavy, and the load they put on a properly installed wall mount almost certainly won't be a problem.

so just look for something you like that has a good handful of believable reviews (there are chrome extensions and stuff that can analyze reviews for false reviews, which is unfortunately a thing). you can also find really inventive designs on etsy and stuff, which will give you inspiration for what qualities to look for (material, size, color, etc...) if nothing else.

This is lovely, but your layout needs some work. That bike should be hung vertically in the inaccessible corner where the light wood end table is currently. http://www.amazon.com/Racor-B-1R-Solo-Vertical-Bike/dp/B0009I8ANM/ref=sr_1_1?s=hi&ie=UTF8&qid=1381846128&sr=1-1

I'd find a better solution for the TV and the couch. I like where the couch is currently, the TV should be on the long wall on an tilting wall mount so you can push it out to be across from the TV when in use and push it back when not, or leave it angled at the TV all the time. Either way, it will feel more cohesive. http://www.bestbuy.com/site/peerless-truvue-full-motion-tilting-wall-mount-for-most-22-37-flat-panel-tvs-black/8844925.p?id=1218911747388&skuId=8844925&ref=06&loc=01&ci_src=14110944&ci_sku=8844925&extensionType={adtype}:{network}&s_kwcid=PTC!pla!{keyword}!{matchtype}!{adwords_producttargetid}!{network}!{ifmobile:M}!{creative}&kpid=8844925&k_clickid=71b18fad-31d0-3968-eb9b-00006b13c787&gclid=CPLQu7iBmboCFQ-a4Aod_gEAFQ
You'll probably have to get rid of one of those recliners to make this work, as your living room is very narrow and long. I'd consider swapping out the recliner for the modern chair in the basement. That has more of the esthetic that you're going for. You have to work with what you have, my friend. As time and money permits, consider a left return sectional that can run along the long wall. That will keep the room open. Also, you need an area rug in the living room. That will define this space.
Lastly, a rule of thumb for hanging art is that it shouldn't be hung any higher than the door frame. There are, of course, exceptions to the rule, but I think that you're home would do well with following that idea. It keeps the items in the room connected and allows the viewer to actually see it. Your house is wonderful. Truly. You're young and you're catering to your lifestyle. Getting accolades in the interior design subreddit ain't easy. You're on your way.

I was in your position once, though I had a folding bike with a flatbar (so essentially a hybrid that folds). As someone mentioned below, getting Ergon grips with barends does at least get you a second hand position, but frankly, it looks like you've explored all the options and none are particularly exceptional. One of the additional costs to consider in conversion (in addition to the drop bar and brifters) is that the hybrid-style v-brakes are incompatible with brifters, and you either have to get road-style caliper brakes (best) or an adapter (look for a "travel agent"), which some say cause some sponginess or lack of feel in braking.

Anyway, I wouldn't say that someone that logs 100+ miles a week (20x3+40) is a "casual" rider, and I discovered that after doing a century ride, I felt the "versatility" of the upright, flatbar hybrid position was too limiting. It's a shame you have such a nice hybrid bike--frankly, I'm disappointed in the bike industry's push to get people onto hybrids, in my jaded view, they are simply a case of "jack of all trades, master of none" and the so-called "versatility" is just another word to sell bikes to people who are initially put off by the idea of lycra-clad roadies. Road bikes come in all kinds of geometries these days, and there are some pretty relaxed geometry bikes (they call them "endurance" these days) which should really be what's sold to the more "casual" rider instead of hybrids.

Anyway again, I sympathize with your apartment lifestyle... I ended up sucking it up and getting a real road bike after deciding that I like biking enough and I wanted to commit to it as a positive lifestyle/fitness change. Thankfully, since the other bike is a folding bike, the space addition wasn't huge. Maybe the solution instead is a really nice two bicycle rack :)

Ah, that's so annoying! Efficient storage will probably depend a lot on where in your building you have room to store things, but here's a couple ideas.

We have one of these from Amazon. You can buy a kit to make it hold four bikes - two on front and two on back. You just extend the pole to fit tightly between the ceiling and floor - no screws or holes. Plus it looks really nice. We are able to put it pretty close to the wall and still get the two bikes on the back side off - I put a wall hanging behind it to prevent marking up the walls. But this means our dining room is now a bike room *shrug*

I also saw this while looking for the link for you and think it looks pretty great for corner storage!

EDIT: The first thing you want to do, as in do this right now, is find the serial numbers of your bikes and record that information. This will be critical in the event that your bike is stolen.

*****

So for starters, you'll probably want two locks. A big, heavy U-bolt, as well as a cable/chain lock that you can put through the wheels. Ideally the cable/chain would have its own lock. Avoid those integrated rotary locks; they are shit. Here's an interesting guide testing the safety of a few popular models.

1. Pick the right thing to lock to. This seems obvious but a lot of people screw it up anyway. If you can lift your locked bike off of it, don't lock it there. (example 1, example 2.) Avoid street signs for this reason. Also, check to make sure that the object you're locking to is secured to the ground. Sometimes thieves will lay traps that look like good places to lock, but then they just pluck the trap off the ground and take the bike with them to remove the lock later. (example 1, example 2.) Other times, thieves will saw through a rack and then hide the gap with a piece of tape.
   
   
2. Always put your strongest lock through the frame. Your wheels are removable and much less valuable than the rest of your bicycle put together.
   
   
3. Always lock your wheels. Ideally you can put your U-lock through the frame as well as one of the wheels. That's particularly a good idea because it eats up empty space within the lock, which makes the lock harder to break or cut without breaking or cutting your bicycle. But even then, you'll have an unlocked wheel. Use your secondary lock to go through that wheel. If possible, also put your secondary lock through the frame and also lock it to the object you're locking to.
   
   
4. Have your bike exposed for as little time as possible. If you can have your bike inside, do so. For one thing, this prevents damage to your drivetrain if it rains. For another, your bike won't be stolen. I use something like this to store my bikes in my apartment.
   
   The theme of locking your bike is to make it too much of a bother to deal with. You can't make it impossible for your bike to be stolen, but you can make it hard enough that nobody will care. This framework also means it's a good idea to never leave a super-expensive bike unoccupied, ever. Your bikes look fine for general commuting/locking, though.

I feel your pain. If I were in your shoes I’d sure as hell want to bring my bike into my apartment too.

I’ve got two bikes I switch between regularly, and recently got this from Amazon. It’s right against the wall just inside my apartment, so I can hang them up and take them down easily just as I’m coming and going.

Don’t worry about hanging your bike by the rim of a wheel. Unless your frame is made out of ultra dense material from a collapsed star and weighs a ton you’ll be fine. I wouldn’t discount a pulley system with the ceiling, even if it’s tall either. Installation would certainly be a pain, but worth it once you got it done. I’ve seen some innovative setups on YouTube, you can look there for some inspiration and brainstorming. It’s also possible you could make something just to fit your needs in a DIY project. Before I bought my rack I was contemplating following some instructions online to make one myself out of $50 or so of PVC pipe or wood from a hardware store. Good luck with whatever you choose.

DIY is cool and all, but this is a truly awesome rack, cheap, and looks good enough to use in my on-campus office. (And it fits big MTB tires! Strong enough to hold up a bike upright with a single loaded pannier, too.)

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B001F9V842/ref=twister_B006JXYGW0?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1

How about a stand like this one?. If you go on /r/bicycling someone just shared theirs and it looks great. With tall ceilings you could even get three bikes on there, with the least used one up top but other two easily accessible.

Another option is something like these which would still keep them easy to access but out of the way.

Edit:I realise your ceilings are probably too tall for the first link but they also sell the same concept that you can kinda mount to the wall on one end, rather than relying on ceiling.

I have shelves, toolbox, and workbench along all of the walls that can fit them. Problem is, if I build along the sides of the garage then there isn't enough room to open the car doors (garage is pretty narrow for a 2-car). It's already pretty tight along the sides with lawn mower, roto-tiller, air compressor, etc. I do need to install pegboard over my work bench to hang tools, that will help free up a bit of space that I could then build some small shelves or drawers for smaller items.

I've seen the bike racks that go into the wall and actually used them at our previous house, I may have to take a trip to the hardware store and take a look. I also just found this for the bikes, I may try it out - may make for good winter storage at least.

Get one of those round laundry baskets, have your pulley mounted above, and like the other guy said, have a cleat (that's what his picture is of) to secure the line to. I'd recommend putting the cleat at ground level, so she can load it, pull it up and secure it on the ground, then go up and unload and reload it. When she comes back down she can untie it from the cleat and bring it back to ground level with her stuff in it.

Edit: I have a bike hoist in my shed with a safety, might be a good cheap pulley. They're often on sale: http://www.amazon.com/RAD-Cycle-Products-Bike-Hoist/dp/B000PEURIQ

Nicely done. Looks really good and I like the small profile. Just an FYI to anyone interested, a few dollars more gets you THIS

The wall racks are these:
http://www.amazon.com/Delta-Michelangelo-Two-Bike-Gravity-Stand/dp/B000ACAM38/ref=sr_1_4?s=sporting-goods&ie=UTF8&qid=1323268346&sr=1-4

They're super easy to put together and they're actually super stable.

That looks really nice. I like the clean style.

That Ikea pole costs $30. The other stuff (brackets, hooks, square piping) would probably bring the cost over $50. Plus, you'd actually have to put it together. It's probably easier and cheaper just to buy a pre-made gravity stand. But I do like the look of that Ikea one.

I have a 2 bike stand that is free standing (http://www.amazon.com/Racor-Pro-PLB-2R-Two-Bike-Stand/dp/B000077CPK?ie=UTF8&psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00). It can be bolted to the wall to assist it and be flush against it. The arms for each bike can be positioned independently and the hooks will swivel as well.

I know it looks wonky, but really I have one free standing in my garage with a 62 Steel Raleigh 3 Speed on the top part and while it does lean out some, it has been up for well over a year. That includes fumbling the bike around hanging it up and taking it down (damn thing is heavy), using it as a make-shift stand for tire changes, and just getting banged around.

You shouldn't store a bike with hydro brakes upside down, as any air trapped in the reservoir can potentially migrate up the line, but it takes a while for that to happen. I generally work on my bikes upside down, simply because that's how I worked on them as a kid and I'm more comfortable doing it that way. I've had my MTB upside down for hours at a time, never had any negative effects.

Turning it upside down a few minutes before every few rides can help keep the foam seals in the suspension fork wet with oil (depending on the fork of course).

I don't really think bikes are heavy enough to put wheels out of true by hanging them if you use the bike regularly. It's not like you hang the bike by the same exact spot every time. I use a feedback sports rack to store my bikes, simply back them into it and they stay upright.

You know, I've been searching for a solution for the exact same problem. The best I've come up with is something like this or something like this and moutning it high up on the wall near the ceiling. Neither one is a ideal solution. Right now are bikes are next to our bed. I'm interested to see what other people may post in here.

You can get it at http://www.amazon.com/Delta-Michelangelo-Two-Bike-Gravity-Stand/dp/B000ACAM38, but it looks like the price went up. I only paid $50.

However, despite all the good reviews, I've had mixed feelings about it. My bike seems to be significantly heavier on one side, so more weight is on one of the hooks than the other. I'm a little worried it's going to snap one day.

Apart from that, I've been pretty happy with it and you can even hang two bikes on it if you want.

I built a stand that mounted like that--tension floor to ceiling--and hung bikes vertically, using wood. That was a while ago and I don't have good pictures, but it can be done if you are up for that sort of project. As an intermediate options, u/fallingbomb's stand, this one that goes up to 11.5 feet, or this one that goes up to 11 could serve as a good head start to setting up to hang bikes vertically, even though they don't have the right hooks and rear wheel guides for that yet.

Otherwise, you might like this simple one bike vertical stand, or this four bike vertical stand Or, for an expensive solution, this.

That looks pretty cool. For those who need a two-bike stand, I just installed this guy. It's not free-standing as it needs a wall to lean on, but as long as you're not drunkenly stumbling by it 24/7, it doesn't need to be bolted into anything. It does have a small safety strap for those drunkards out there. :)

There's nothing you can really get to allow you to fold up your pedals or bars, but the other commenter made a good suggestion about taking your front wheel off.

Personally, I use this freestanding rack. It has some pretty critical reviews, but after owning and using it, I feel like there's a lot of user error behind those reviews. It takes up as much horizontal space as the bike itself, but allows you to stack two of them, which saves a considerable amount of space of you have multiple bikes. A lot of the reviews say that it doesn't stand up or isn't stable, or that it needs to be leaning against or anchored to a wall to remain stable, but mine can stand up in the middle of the room on its own as long as there's a bike on it.

Other than this and the other suggestions, all I can think of is getting a folding bike and stashing it in a corner when you're not using it.

Oh, one more suggestion: if your bed frame (or any other piece of furniture) is tall enough, you can just slip your bike underneath, virtually eliminating any space it would take up.

I got this and it works great for elevating a bike and having another hanging or leaning at floor level. Looks like this manufacturer's version is no longer being produced but there's another very similar by someone else linked in the Amazon page.

It presses between the ceiling and floor. I spray painted it white to match the walls too. Looks pretty good and no permanent marks.

I've been working with a 501(c)(3) non-profit that has helped recover over 6,000 stolen bikes. Happy to answer any questions about the trends/scenarios we see most frequently. There's also a monthly newsletter of recovery stories for your entertainment.

Bringing it inside is the best option if you can (though I would've gone with a slightly more elaborate solution for convenience.). For long term storage, I'd throw a u-lock on the rear wheel and lock it to the frame through the seat stays so you can't walk/ride it without removing the lock.

For free-standing, this one is great. I had 4 bikes at my old apartment and had two of these racks side by side in my entry-way. If you want to hang them vertically, the link below is a great one.

free-standing

vertical wall mount

You caught me; I guess I do own one more bike accessory. I am living in a studio apartment, and this allows the bike to stand upright in one of the corners. I'm not trying to push you into buying a bike, just providing the solution I found to storing a bike in a small space. Best of luck on your road to minimizing!

Here's how you do it. Don't. Honestly, it's not worth potentially damaging the walls, as University Housing regulations usually have explicit rules about these things. Some even go as far as to say how you can affix posters and such.

Look into something like this or this if you're looking for something that won't take up space. Even though both can handle two bikes, you could always use the top rack and utilize the space below, or allow your roommate to use it as well.

You'll save yourself the time, potential repairs, possible fines, and be able to take this with you when you move into an apartment.

I am a huge fan of steady rack! https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004N9BUEY/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I have six of them mounted in my garage, two of the fat bike versions and 4 regular. They swing left to right so you can mount your bike then swing it out of the way. Very easy on and off as well.

​

edit: main website https://www.steadyrack.com

Here it is, exact model, my only gripes with it are that any under-seat bags need to be removed in order to have enough seat tube to properly seat it, and that the front wheel needs to be secured to the downtube with a velcro strap. Adds about 30 seconds to the process of storing the bike.

Others haven't had luck with fenders or rear racks- you'd have to eyeball your fender to see if it'd be clear, since the rear wheel rests on the frame at the 3 o'clock position, and I haven't had trouble with a rear rack (my bike is size 51 so that might be why).

I should also add that I haven't had any stability issues - the bike might wobble if you bump it as it's resting on a round tire and it's top heavy, but I've never had any issue with the bike actually falling over, even when I'm removing the chain and derailleur cage for cleaning.

The 'customers also purchased' links from that item have other designs of vertical floor stands worth considering, some that secure by the front wheel which makes the added step of securing the front wheel unnecessary.

Great work! But you should consider hanging your bikes differently. Hung by the rim will put all the bike's weight on one point of the rim and possible warp it. I got these and they work great.

http://www.amazon.com/RAD-Cycle-Products-Bike-Hoist/dp/B003TFOPJA/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1463858945&sr=8-1&keywords=bicycle+pulley+storage

the pulleys we use is pretty similiar to those. works great. our ceiling slants up, so we have the bikes well above our heads. if you have a dropper post, i run some paracord around the frame and up through the seat post, that way the weight of the bike sits on the frame as opposed to the post. some dropper posts (command post and gravity dropper) wont need this.

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000FIE4WC/

Compression post stand. Love it so far, looks pretty badass! The bike on top is no doubt heavier than my Stumpy, and the stand is holding everything fine.

Edit: for size reference, my Stumpjumper is an XL.

Read up on the drywall anchors. They are probably rated for 50 pounds pulling straight down the wall, perpendicular to the anchor. You're going to be applying quite a bit of pulling out force. See what they are rated for with that. This may be listed on the anchor package for something like ceiling mount for hanging a plant.

You'll probably want a toggle bolt instead, as they have a higher pullout force. Look up the sort of thing done for hanging shelving and you'll see.

It may just be better for you, if possible, to get a wall rack that puts most of its load into the floor, like this one.

We have a couple [Delta Michelangelo 2 Rugged] (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B009ZN0OTK) stands and they work really well. The Michelangelo Canaletto looks to be about the same but quite a bit cheaper.

They're neat in that they lean against your wall; the weight of the bikes keeps them stable. You can tack them to the wall with an included nylon strap if need be, but we've never bothered to.

I got this pulley hanger and spray painted it white, and used this white parachute cord to give it more reach.

Works like a charm. I like to think of it as my "art" centerpiece.

The Racor bike lift is $25 and does a great job in apartments with high ceilings. I've got one installed in my tiny bungalow apt with a gabled ceiling and it's fantastic.

I actually really like my Bike Bunk. It's WAY more stable than I would have thought, and I actually have 2 bikes on the bottom rack after buying my latest one. Pretty cheap and doesn't require any permanent modifications to your space.

I will certainly know where to get feedback on my amateur photography from now on... Plus it's not a kickstand, it's a bike stand! I thought I got away with a clean, affordable performance setup for enjoyable riding and the lock and bag add some versatility.

I want to install a bike wall mount into drywall, but I'm not sure I can reliably find a stud. I have an edge-finder, but it detects metal and other things (electric pipes, metal stuff) that I shouldn't be screwing into. My bike is light, but I feel like standard drywall mounts would't be enough to hold it. Are there some special mounts I can use?

> The only other stand I liked was this one for $38.50.

This is the one I have. It's sturdy, easy to use, and holds the bike securely.

http://www.amazon.com/RAD-Cycle-Products-Highest-Quality/dp/B003VOX1XU/ref=sr_1_13?ie=UTF8&qid=1452792548&sr=8-13&keywords=bike+hanger

I have had great luck with this style in smaller apartments. Up and out of the way.

This is what I bought for my apt. I would thing the difference in prices is from aesthetics and overall size of the rack. This gravity stand takes up less floor space and is less industrial looking then the one in your picture. Which could account for the higher price tag. I have one carbon bike on there now and it could easily hold another.

I'm sure that most all of them will work regardless of price. With multiple carbon bikes on a free standing rack I would look at the reviews to see if others have done the same.

I was born into it pretty much. Before I was born my dad raced motorcross, but gave it up and started racing mountain bikes shortly before I was born. For a few years he owned a bike shop when I was in elementary school.

For as long as I can remember, the third bedroom in my parents house has been the bike room, with about 6 or 7 bikes in there(and that's after I moved out, although a few of mine are still there)

I just got this stand and am going to build a stand for my bedroom to hold bikes this (can't drill holes in my wall) for the rest of my bikes that are at home. Well, I will never be able to fit the tandem in here.

I’ve got a tiny apartment and can’t drill into walls either, so I opted for a Gravity bike stand . I didn’t get this exact one, but one almost identical to it. It’s worked pretty well and doesn’t take up an enormous amount of space....

I have two of these, it's a pretty good design: https://m.cb2.com/wood-bike-storage/s309683

You need to use drywall anchors though.

If you're not comfortable drilling into your wall, there are designs that just lean, like this:

Have you considered a bike lift?

Pretty popular for cramped garages.

Edit: noticing you said roof rack isn't an option. Maybe that means no lift, either. Cheers.

I have this rack. It leans against the wall, and while it's technically intended to hang the bike by the top tube, I just tested and it works perfectly fine hanging the bike vertically.

If you want to try it out without mounting anything try this. Takes some tinkering to get the arms and hooks to work well but I've been happy with it.

You could just go with a gravity bike stand, and use the wall space without having to actually install anything.

I agree with bigred, though, anything that makes a bike visible above the fence line is definitely a security issue.

It's actually this one. The one you linked is very similar but not the same (note the knob in the middle of each crossbar). I just got this same one about a month ago and I'm very happy with it.

I use this in a garage with tight space. Works well enough for me. You might want some that stack vertically like this if you're really tight on space. You may be able to come up with a 3d printable design of a rack like this

I got mine off of craigslist, but you can get similar ones http://www.amazon.com/Delta-Michelangelo-Two-Bike-Gravity-Stand/dp/B000ACAM38/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1411905938&sr=8-2&keywords=gravity+bike+stand

Perfect for apartments where you don't want to drill anything.

You can buy them on amazon as well (for twice the price). I have two of these:
http://www.amazon.com/Racor-PBH-1R-Ceiling-Mounted-Bike-Lift/dp/B00006JBL3/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1407096560&sr=8-1&keywords=racor+bike+lift&dpPl=1

...and one from HF. I would rather have yours, honestly. On mine:

• The string is very low quality. I feel like it will need to be replaced after a couple of years.
  
  
• The auto retention mechanics are sloppy and don't always work well.
  
  
• Primarily, I don't like the hooks that the kit comes with. They don't hook securely to the seats on any of my bikes, and I have had them slide off while hoisting. I like the fact that yours clip on. I may modify mine to do that

I've got one of these, it's a piece of shit but it gets the job done. You can move it around fairly easily but it needs a solid ceiling to push against as part of it's support.

Pretty sure it's the hanger part of this bike rack

EDIT: Here's a picture instead of an Amazon link

Racor B-1R Solo Vertical Bike Rack, White https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0009I8ANM/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_5vHfzbAMQHBER

It took about 15 minutes to install, pretty easy.

A friend of mine gave me this bike stand, which leans against the wall at the top with a non-marking plastic piece and has non marking plastic feet. It has never fallen over or marked anything. The only problem is the handlebars will hit the wall, so I had to put fabric behind it.

It doubles as a repair stand for the top bike. But it doesn't have your storage, which I like a lot.

Sure, this is the one I got, you can them in individually or in four packs like I did.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B013TRAX66/ref=yo_ii_img?ie=UTF8&psc=1


In hindsight, it would be better to get these as they bolt down the centerline (perfect for studs) and you can adjust the distance between the hooks later (mine are stuck in position, if I want to move one, I have to make more holes in the ceiling).

https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B003VOX1XU/ref=psdcmw_165113011_t3_B013TRAX66

I've got one of these in my apartment. The arms are a bit fiddly, but I like it well enough.

Mine isn't exactly as bad as most of the others, but attaching one of these to your belt loops and lifting yourself up is anything but comfortable.

I've been using this one for the past 5 years. Looks good, works good, price is right.

For my small apartment, I bought this off Amazon. It leans up against the wall and can be used as a bike stand for maintenance.

Edit: For $50 it's been great: amazon link

I have two of these in my apartment and they work great:

http://www.amazon.com/Swagman-Hang-It-Bike-Hanger/dp/B000GTNIQI/ref=sr_1_7?ie=UTF8&qid=1313450289&sr=8-7

First time I bought it, it was 55, second time it was 45. At 62 still cheaper than the "name" brand solutions.

I actually didn't build these. They are Allen Wall mounted racks that have so far worked great. And they're only $20 each!

Define damn good lock? Any type of cable/chain lock can be basically cut through with a large enough set of bolt cutters. A good u-lock or mini u-lock would require a powered angle grinder to cut it quickly if the bike is locked properly.

Many people also don't lock correctly, ie locking front wheel only. This is the method I use now:
http://www.sheldonbrown.com/lock-strategy.html

Of course keeping a bike in your house is better than keeping it out on the streets. If you have wall space, consider getting a bike hook/rack like this one:
http://www.amazon.com/Allen-Sports-Mounted-2-Bike-Strorage/dp/B000GOHE0Y/ref=sr_1_11?ie=UTF8&qid=1420811091&sr=8-11&keywords=allen+two+bike+rack

Assuming you're SOL, consider this thing if you have the cash. Doesn't damage the unit and works pretty well for me. I am at ground level though. I'm sure I'd be annoyed bringing my bike up and down elevators all the time.

There are a bunch of stands that hold two bikes stacked like this.

one

two

three

four

And some others. I haven’t used any of them but they mostly have good reviews?

I've got a Delta Michelangelo in my living room. It freed up a nice chunk of space.

It's a 2 bedroom apartment shared with my wife. We both have beds so one will be used as our bedroom and one as a guest room. The apartment is fairly large with an open living room & dining room space. We have a fairly small couch, entertainment center and dining room table. We won't have a garage or outside storage. Hope that helps a little better. I was looking at the this stand but not sure I want to have 3 or 4 of them.

I agree. A good one i've been eyeing is https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000ACAM38/?tag=thewire06-20&linkCode=xm2&ascsubtag=AgEAAAAAAAAAAOxTAAAAADL8AZ8AAAAAWmuDog

Something like this freestanding rack would look good in the corner where bikes/sofa box are in the pictures

I found it on Amazon. It's perfect for my place, until I wind up with another bike...

Heres the link: http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B000GTNIQI/ref=mp_s_a_1_20?qid=1427577296&sr=8-20&pi=AC_SX110_SY165_QL70&keywords=swagman+bike+rack&dpPl=1&dpID=21XFEG36K4L&ref=plSrch

There are some upright stands that sit on the floor that may be a good option, depending on your space. Like this one: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06XXSHGWR/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_XirnDbWE1N2AF

http://www.amazon.com/Delta-Michelangelo-Two-Bike-Gravity-Stand/dp/B000ACAM38/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1413161565&sr=8-3&keywords=home+bicycle+stand <-- Something like this? I'm not endorsing that specific product as I've never tried it, but something along those lines sounds like what you are looking for.

Agreed. Very simple. Worth the money. I can vouch for this model.

Given the chance, it'll stand on it's own fully loaded.

Half the price, and works absolutely great. I've shaken the crap out of this thing with 2 bikes on it, and even on carpet, it doesn't slide or teeter. You're gonna want to make sure it's screwed into a stud, but it has worked great.

Works great.

I own this (I didnt know it was an as seen on TV product). It's great since I live in a rental and cant put up bike racks. It also makes the space much more compact since it stores the bikes vertically. It cant handle heavy bikes, and it isnt sturdy so dont place it where itll be in the way. Here is the link for the one I bought since TV products are cheap. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06XXSHGWR/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_sjjJBbF5M6ZN3

We use the Delta Michelangelo Gravity Bike Storage Rack for two bikes in our apartment. its worked great for 3 years now.

https://www.amazon.com/Michelangelo-Canaletto-Gravity-Storage-Adjustable/dp/B074HJ4VJF

Oh ok, what about something like this?

We went to our LBS and they were remodeling so they gave us this for $50. If you have 10 foot ceilings you could probably fit 3 bikes on it. It uses pressure from the bolts at top and bottom. No drilling required.

​

Here's the amazon link https://www.amazon.com/2021-Cycle-Woody-Bike-Rack/dp/B01MXZZ87J/ref=sr_1_2?keywords=wooden+bike+hang&qid=1563942468&s=gateway&sr=8-2

​

also it looks like they sell the rungs to add an extra bike. https://www.amazon.com/gearup-OakRak-Extra-Bike-Black/dp/B000NPCSU2/ref=pd_bxgy_468_img_2/132-5224801-8525738?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B000NPCSU2&pd_rd_r=967a2b21-3225-47a5-845e-efa073314a82&pd_rd_w=iDFS4&pd_rd_wg=CmDzm&pf_rd_p=a2006322-0bc0-4db9-a08e-d168c18ce6f0&pf_rd_r=DMYGNJ9ZKPHSKKQGTDZ3&psc=1&refRID=DMYGNJ9ZKPHSKKQGTDZ3

My girlfriend uses something like this in her apartment http://amzn.to/2wLVjiR and has had really good luck with it. Holds 2 bikes no problem and keeps them off the ground.

I used to have something like this, but these racks ultimately have too big of a footprint for narrow hallways, and take up a lot of space in a room. I went with something like this and mounted as flush against the wall as possible, and into the ceiling.

is the jeep in the garage? what type of doors? something like this would probably work well with full doors. roll the window down and hook the frame. mount the wider than the tub so you can back in between the doors.

Afraid I can't help on where to find materials, but just chiming in on bike storage: I have these in my garage and they're fantastic, and cheap. Doesn't slide the bikes together, but the built in hoist makes it easy enough for my wife to raise and lower the bikes. They also double as a hanging stand (since you can lower the bike to working height) for adjusting the gears and such.

Check the height of your ceilings - we ended up not getting one of those because the only model tall enough was freaky expensive. Instead we got a the two-bike gravity stand. Ours was only $50, but we found the last one at Target on sale - they must have been getting rid of them.

For the ceiling mounted models, I would be less worried about the deposit and more worried about what your ceiling is made of. If you live in an older building, ceiling mounts can be a great way to pull your entire ceiling down. You definitely won't get your deposit back if that happens.

I just picked up one of these on REI w/ my 20% members coupon (still waiting on delivery) and I've heard a lot of good things.

There's these guys if you really want vertical standing. I'd been considering buying one for my office. I was concerned that the bike would fall forward if someone bumped it, though.

Yeah, it's a tension rod with a quick release and a screw for making fine adjustments to the tension. For something that's holding about 50 lbs of bike and not anchored by anything other than tension, it's pretty stable.

This isn't the model I have, but it looks like it works exactly the same way.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B000GOHE0Y/ref=yo_ii_img?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I've got one of these and it works like a charm. Only uses 1 screw drilled into a stud.

I struggled to store my bike in my flat, but then I got one of these;

Thane Bike Nook - Free Standing Bicycle Stand for Indoor Storage https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B06XXSHGWR/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_9PCsDb1YF0YY4

Took up far less room than when it was horizontal. Might be an option for current an new place?

When I had a condo I used one of these in a closet to increase our storage. It worked really well.

Delta Cycle Michelangelo Two-Bike... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000ACAM38?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

I have a gravity rack and it is AWESOME! No need to drill holes in the wall or worry about structural integrity.

I know this isn't the answer you're looking for, but have you considered alternate methods for storing your bike(s) in the apartment? For example something like this

Here is a drill-less option that can hold two bikes:

https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B000ACAM38

I actually use this in my garage to keep both bikes off the ground. I did NOT need to drill anything into the walls as it simply leans against it, it's surprisingly stable.

Yeah, I'm not leaving my rides outside. The only person with access to my room is me (and the landlord). I have one of these to keep them inside. Expensive, but totally worth it.

I actually find this really simple and useful https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000ACAM38/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_61tNDbEHJ6YQP

I think I'm going to get this. It's small and simple and seems like it'll do the trick just fine.

You can get all the pvc and glue for about $11, sand for $4, depending on where you shop.

Cool thing about this is that it grips the tire from the top and bottom making it more stable compared to the wide stand you are showing for 5-10 bucks more.

The only other stand I liked was this one for $38.50. Or the Pro 29er which I own but did not fit my wheel.

Alright, alright, fixed for non-mobile

Why the wood things at the bottom of the wheels? No need. Just hang it from the ceiling with a pulley system. Easier to get up and down, and you can store it higher. These are ~$20 and work very well.

I have this gravity stand from Amazon. I don't have a convenient stud to secure it to so it is currently freestanding. It allows you to spin the wheels on both bikes. It's too awkward for our commuter bikes since the rear racks screw up the weight distribution, but it works just fine for the road bikes.

I'd also like to know if anyone has any ideas on how to store a Super 73 vertically.

They do sell vertical bike racks but I feel it would be too heavy / not fit correctly:

https://www.amazon.co.uk/Thane-Bike-Nook-Standing-Bicycle/dp/B06XXSHGWR/ref=sr_1_1_sspa?keywords=vertical+bike+storage&qid=1570816548&sr=8-1-spons&psc=1&spLa=ZW5jcnlwdGVkUXVhbGlmaWVyPUExMFlRRkpZTVJKRlU1JmVuY3J5cHRlZElkPUEwNjA5NDYyMjJHMDNMSFZBNVFDUyZlbmNyeXB0ZWRBZElkPUEwMTU3ODc3NTZPSUQzR0Y1UVZLJndpZGdldE5hbWU9c3BfYXRmJmFjdGlvbj1jbGlja1JlZGlyZWN0JmRvTm90TG9nQ2xpY2s9dHJ1ZQ==

Mines just taking up a lot of room next to my dining table at the moment.

I use this one. It's cheap, stands on its own, and (I think) looks better than the one you posted.

http://www.amazon.com/Delta-Michelangelo-Two-Bike-Gravity-Stand/dp/B000ACAM38

I suggest getting some kind of bike rack for the apartment in the future. My wife and I live in a small 1 bedroom apartment and manage to store 2 full size bikes on one. I hope you find it. Anything left outside will be stolen/vandalized given enough time.

Those lean against the wall style bike hangers work better than I expected they would. We keep both our bikes in the entryway to our apartment and they barely occupy any space.

We got this one for $50.

https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B000ACAM38

We have this (or something similar). Looks classy for a bike rack and you can buy a kit to hang an additional two bikes on the back, so four in total.

I know of 2 options.

https://www.amazon.com/Delta-Cycle-Folding-Storage-Garage/dp/B008MJBMGC/ref=sr_1_21?ie=UTF8&qid=1525720864&sr=8-21&keywords=wall+bike+rack

You could even try some tool or ladder holders. IMHO the one you linked looks a lot like a ladder holder.

I bought this off amazon: http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B000077CPK/ref=mp_s_a_1_5?qid=1421954866&sr=8-5&pi=AC_SX110_SY165_QL70&dpPl=1&dpID=51JHYBVKSZL&ref=plSrch


It fits 2 29ers comfortably with wide bars. The wheels just have to sit at a slight angle.

Finally back from vacation. Here's the link as promised. If you end up getting it and installing it, send a pic!

This off-brand 2-bike gravity rack: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000ACAM38/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o06_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Holds both of my bikes securely, was very cheap, and no marks on the walls. My landlady likes it so much that after seeing mine, she has started providing them to all of her tenants with bikes.

Absolutely, and you have a couple of options. First is a wall stand like this:

http://www.amazon.com/Racor-PLB-2R-Two-Bike-Gravity-Freestanding/dp/B000077CPK/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1367802540&sr=8-1&keywords=racor+gravity

Only needs one non-load-bearing screw at the top to prevent it wobbling, not too expensive, very sturdy. I have two of these at home.

Option two is something like this:

http://www.formulafoto.com/bikes/quiver.jpg

You can screw that into the studs in your wall and hang each bike with only two small holes.

Option three is to use the same type of hanger along with good quality drywall anchors:

http://www.lemurzone.com/rfg/wp-content/uploads/walldriller.jpg

Those will let you have ~50lbs without needing studs, but they leave slightly larger holes. Nothing that can't be taken care of with a bit of spackling when you move out though, and this has the upside of being able to put them wherever you want instead of just where studs are.

This thing is amazing.

I just stand mine up on a moving blanket when it's dirty. Makes it easier to clean too. I have to wash the blanket periodically.

You can use an indoor rack like this: https://www.amazon.com/Racor-Pro-PLB-2R-Two-Bike-Stand/dp/B000077CPK/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1510610212&sr=8-5&keywords=bike+stand that gets two bikes in one vertical-bike spot of stourage.

Would something like this work? Most don't even require drilling. Google gravity stand bike racks
http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B000077CPK/ref=psdcmw_165113011_t1_B000ACAM38

Looks like this: http://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B0009I8ANM/ref=pd_lpo_sbs_dp_ss_2?pf_rd_p=1944687702&pf_rd_s=lpo-top-stripe-1&pf_rd_t=201&pf_rd_i=B001NGD4GM&pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_r=1BS5K2W2FH8NV8DF8TEP

Maybe something like Delta Cycle Michelangelo https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000ACAM38/

I considered flashing lights in the garage but I'm scared I'll just ignore them or not notice them, only one (potentially expensive) way to find out haha.

As for multiple users, I think that's a minor issue right now. It's a detached one car garage that is strictly used to store a car.

The bike stand in my house is a gravity stand. I guess I could potentially put a load cell between the contact point on the wall. I think it would need to be pretty sensitive. I don't think a lot of pressure gets put on that contact point from a road bike. I haven't been able to think of a good way to do a load sensor for this type of bike stand.

You could try something like this. It expands and braces between the ceiling and floor, so you won't be touching the wall and won't be nailing or bolting in to anything.

Swagman Hang It Bike Hanger
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000GTNIQI/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_dshIzbMAYX2GW

I have this which has worked well for me. Just expands to push against the floor and ceiling.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000GTNIQI

Im a big fan of the Delta Cycle 2 bike stand.

For the third, you may just go with a hook to store it vertically.

Thanks! I got mine used but I think this is it https://www.amazon.com/Racor-PLB-2R-Gravity-Bike-Stand/dp/B000077CPK

These allow you to store the bike vertically and fold them flat'ish against the wall: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Steadyrack-11000-Classic-rack/dp/B004N9BUEY

You'd mount them on the left wall and fold your neighbors bikes out of the way when you want to pull one out.

We have a 2 story, 900 square foot home. We are lucky to have almost all of our space completely utilized, however, the staircase (U-shaped) takes up a fair portion of our floor plan. Also, we have no place to store our bikes. We live in an urban area where bike theft is common, so they need to be inside. Right now, they are sitting in our living room. It would be nice to have a place to put them, but normal bike stands like this won't fit anywhere in our house.

I have this one for my bike and it does fairly well. (Racor -B-1R Solo Vertical Bike Rack –Wall Mount https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0009I8ANM/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_MhwQCbS8VKWVR)

What's wrong with bringing them inside? Placing them on something like this takes them out of the way and keeps carpet clean.

The Delta Cycle Michelangelo Gravity Stand Storage Rack which is highly recommended by TheSweetHome

My link is for a 4-bike version of the stand. They also offer a 2-bike stand for much cheaper.

A new bike probably wouldn't make much difference, but there is always Bike Friday! (Awesome folding bikes)

I would use something like THIS for storage (You can make one much cheaper if you're handy.) Just a cheap PVC/metal pipe with some screw on end caps or something that can twist up and put pressure between floor and ceiling.

Don't even worry about dinging up the staircase. They don't give you much choice, and will be repainting periodically anyway.

Nope, amazon @ $17 and it's not bad.

I use this stand - which actually doesn't hurt the walls very much.

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01MXZZ87J/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_OnSZDbYAN6143 it was a pain to set up, but totally worth it.

Or, just get one of these and you won't need to worry about drilling holes.

I have one of these and I was able to store two bikes in my room without problems.

I use this one at home and it's remarkably sturdy. We've had a few small earthquakes and it's never fallen or dropped a bike, and I don't have it anchored to the wall or anything.

I've had it a few days, roomate is clumsy and bumps into it regularly and we've had no problems. Holds these bikes really well, his bike is 15lbs and mine about 22lbs for reference.

It's called the Michelangelo Canaletto by Delta Cycling. Here's the link if you're interested.

It's not as nice looking, but it gets the job done.

Just remember that a lot of these hooks leave a big hole in the wall which can be costly when you move out of the apartment. It may be cheaper in the long run to get a bike stand similar to the one shown here since they won't damage your walls.

I'll have to get a picture later, but I have my bikes hanging from hooks in a little nook on my porch, with one of these perpendicularly installed to either store or work on a bike.

What about ceiling hooks?

Is this an option?

How high are your ceilings?

I have three of these in a hallway for our bikes.

A couple weeks ago I wanted to do the same (but without making holes in the wall) and picked up this: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000ACAM38/

This one

Its smaller than I thought

I can't touch my walls in my apartment, so I use one of these. It's a tension-pole you mount between the floor and ceiling; it's quite sturdy as long as you find a ceiling joist. If you have the space you can even mount if farther from the wall and, with extra brackets, hold up to four bikes.

Saris Bike Bunk 2-Bike Gravity Storage Stand https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000I7RRU6/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_C0RuDbCWCMQPE

Then maybe just a simple pulley and a rope, or a bicycle lift or Deer hoist

You could use one of these bicycle hoists.

The ceiling in my garage is 11ft and I use this bike hoist. Bikes' rear wheels have around 6 ft clearance, front around 5'9".

I have two bikes on and it gets them off the floor and frees up a lot of space. Worked out well for me so far.

I have this in my garage, easy to get the bikes up and down, pain to install though.

Okay, I have this bike stand in my dining room/kitchen. It works fine, but it leans forward more than I'd like...

My neighbors, who's apartment mirrors mine, has this bike stand that makes me jealous and is on my "Someone please buy this for me list"
