storage rack for 8 bikes (vertically)
My landlord has asked me about putting up a bike storage rack in a basement
hallway for about 6 - 8 bikes. The hallways is not wide, so the bikes will have to be hung by front wheel, and lined up next to each other standing on their rear wheels, sort of like in a very small bike shop. Is there a ready-made rack system that can hoist 6-8 bikes this way, or maybe one bike and I can just buy 8? I can probably build one with hooks and 2x4s, but the landlord wants a store bought rack(s) and not have to drill into the cement wall. TIA. |

Here's a good, inexpensive solution. And it's scalable. You can just
bolt as many of these as you want to a dropped down 2X4 or cross beam. http://pedalpushersonline.com/?CID=645 On Oct 1, 11:27 pm, Ryan Cousineau wrote: In article , "Bellsouth Ijit 2.0 - Global Warming Edition ®" wrote: My landlord has asked me about putting up a bike storage rack in a basement hallway for about 6 - 8 bikes.
