Best ways to Store your Bike Collection

[pieboy25]

I find myself in the situation where I have 3 bikes in my garage (soon to be 4) largely due to this website. I know this may seem like too few to worry about storage, but I did have only 1 up until a couple of months ago.

I have a brick garage and I prefer them to be stored the right way up, just because it looks better. Have seen brackets which are fixed to the wall that the top tube sits in which I think is my preferred option buy there also seem to be lots of "wheel hangers" for hanging the bike vertically.

With top tube hangers I could fit them 2 high, but wheel hangers would take up less wall space.

Want to be able to protect both frame and wheels.

What are the pros and cons?

Any tips on the best way to store a bike collection?

These are a cool set of storage towers. you can add a additional two hangers to store x4 bikes.
I just use Plastic coated hooks and hang em up...does the job!

I use those cheap plastic coated storage hooks you can get from your local diy shop for about £2 each, Screw them up into the roof joists then hang the bike by the front wheel.

I used to use the plastic coated storage hooks, 2 per bike for top tube hanging, or 2 hooks and one long broom between hooks and then hang the bikes by their saddle.


However, I now have a shed!
