I would think this, as it takes the load off the rims and Tyres...

You obviously like scratches on your bars and bar ends, all part part of the rough mtb look I suppose.

 

... but that will totally screw up you road bike shifter caps, nasty!

Found some nice hooks for rafters this weekend, made to hook over rafter, hang by back wheel,

 

or get a bike hook, where the front wheel clips in and it hangs with wheels against the wall,

No, I don't like scratches on bars and bar end. have upgraded to a carpet along the wall, where there is contact. thanks for pointing it out!

The safest way to hang bikes is to lift with your knees and not with your back.

See: index.php

 

for the hook against wall, you can get them from Builders.

if you have to lift with your knees I think your bike might be a tad on the heavy side

Then again, I dont have a gnarly DH/Trail bike like Sir Patches that might way slighly less than my XC tank

Hung in the Back room, I don't have a Garage, and refuse to let it sleep in the Wendy House.... Bike Hanger Hook bought from Makro, came in a pair....
