GBguy Posted August 7, 2012 Share Nice one!Might I suggest a strip of old carpet, or rubber, foam, something, glued to the wall to reduce scuffing on barsand seats...just a thoughtCheersRActually, it hardly does any damage at all to either seat or hoods (or the wall, for that matter). I've been using this method for many years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Fantana Posted August 8, 2012 Share it took me 20 year of riding to figure out a quick, cheap, convenient way of storing bikes - after I read this thread I tried it too. it is amazing, you can set gears etc while bikes are on the wall: This is a great way to store your bikes. Please forgive me if it sounds like I want to critisise, but how about getting the widest Sondor Tape you can find, and stick it to the wall where the handlebar/brake clamps/bar ends touches the wall. This way the wall cannot scratch anything on your bike. More info on Sondor tape: http://www.sondor.co.za/pg.php?pid=4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RollandBounce Posted August 17, 2012 Share seeing some of the "solutions" got some ideas going and here is the big but... isnt it bad for the suspension to be hanging upside down - know of a few people who had to replace seals beacause their bikes were upside down etc..

Shebeen Posted August 17, 2012 Share Here's my setup at home. We've got a duplex with not allot of space. The "cube" where the staircase comes up can't really be used for anything, so we did this. I can fit about 6 bikes into a 1.2m x 1.5m space. Only 4 bikes in the photos, but space for 2 more. Some wheels we store in here as well, others in another cupboard. Understand you've got to work with what you've got, but that's hardly ideal! must take about 20minutes to go ride that fuji at the back! I'd lose interest in that time.
