If you live where you need a snowblower, chances are you also have salt trucks coming by several times a day. Leave the car outside. Digging it out of snow sucks, but the salt rusts it out more slowly because it is out in the cold and not exposed to repeated freeze and thaw cycles in the garage. I’m also assuming that if you need a snowblower you also live where once the temps go below freezing in November, they don’t go above freezing until March. One of the many things I learned when I moved to upstate NY and I asked my neighbors why they left their cars outside instead of keeping them out of the snow.

I've built a much much simpler of April's bike storage. You have horizontal 2x4s on the wall for support. Then you mount 1 vertical 2x4 on hinges to the horizontal ones. And attach a hook like you had to that vertical 2x4. That's it!

Sounds like what I did. The vertical 2x4 mounts to the 2 horizontal 1x4s with a door hinge on each horizontal. I use the cheap wheel hooks, but cut an inner tube in a 1" strip and wrapped the hook. Not really wearing through that. I have a little hook and loop to hold the 2x4 in place when mounting. My 11 y/o could get bikes on and off.

I think the bike rack will work best for my situation, I live in a co-op house with 22 other people and we have about 18 bikes in the garage and use one of those honkin big steel bike racks you might see outside a school and it makes navigating the garage a huge pita because the middle of the rack is about 3ft from the wall. Between the bike rack we use now and the other stuff in the garage, we have about 1.5 ft of space to walk through and god just trying to pull a bike out is a difficult task.
@CommentsAllowed Жыл бұрын
This got me thinking. I have a garage and a shed. Even if you only have a garage. There are two modes in the north. Winter and not winter when it comes to how I use these spaces. In the summer, a simple floor bike rack would be best. Makes it easier to get in and out, especially for kids. Younger kids might have a hard time lifting up their bike. In the winter, we won't use bikes, but I wouldn't want floor space taken up by a bike rack. If the floor bike rack can be picked up and also hooked onto the wall, then you can hang them up for the winter time in your garage or shed. Now what would be interesting would be a floor bike rack that you put bike in like normal, but then you have a pully system that hoists the bikes up and out of the way. Or even more interesting would be you clip your bikes onto the garage door and they go up and down with it. Of course this would mean you need to close your garage door before you can put your bike away. And then if you needed your bike, you would need to close the garage door. You would also possibly need to tune the garage door to handle it and I doubt a garage door professional would recommend it. A negative of hanging things from the ceiling is that you tend to block lights and create shadows.

I have a workshop that's just 3x5m with a ceiling at 2.5m, so as space is at a premium I went for the first option you showed, but instead of using hooks I built a small wooden support that my fork thru axle is held by (a hook doesn't work for this as it's too narrow a support and the axle will slide around) then my dismounted front wheel I hang to the side lower down on it's own rubberised hook. I also set my forks to the lower travel compress setting while stored which gains me a further 20mm.

the is a middle ground between the hooks and the last method that being a shelf that the front or back tire sits cradled into. assuming that your bike tires generally fall into a 27 and 30 inch diameter you can build a shelf out of 2 by 4s that the bike sit in using this method you can on the fly change and adjust how far each bike is from one another.

@TheShredShedMTB9 ай бұрын
If I owned I shop, I also wouldn’t hang upside down- but for other reasons. It doesn’t look as good as a bike standing on their tires, makes the space look cluttered, can’t clearly see components and geo on a bike, etc. However, if brakes are bled properly there won’t be air in the system. For a home shop or just when storing bikes, we often need to get creative in order to save space when storing bikes- especially when we have s garage filled with them! If I had the room, they would all be stored standing on the tires. Stay tuned, I’m working on another one of these videos but with actual storage products. Some of the storage options address the exact points you made!

Thanks for your ideas. Most bike storage problems arise from the handle bar and to a lesser degree, the pedals. If not for those 2 components, a bike could almost be stored flush to the wall. Too bad there isn't a swing away handle bar goose neck or swing away pedal (for against the wall mounting). If they exist, I've never seen them. Most garage ceilings are too low, same for sheds, to offer overhead storage. If parking cars in the garage, there is little space for bikes on those corresponding walls, but doable if mounted higher on the wall. My wife and I live at the beach, so we need a storage solution that allows easy regular access to the bikes as we use them all the time. I realize I've done nothing but point out the problem, without offering a solution. My apologies. Maybe someone out there can figure this out, because so far, All I've come across are ways of relocating the bike, without really getting it out of the way. Thanks again!

I like the wall art idea. Maybe a beam with a gutter would allow the "extra" bike to rest higher, or at an angle. I would use a large bolt instead of a dowel(for the pedal snag), but dowels are hot on KZbin right now, so, awesome ! Maybe some heavy-weight (deep sea) fishing nylon, laced at different points, would provide a tertiary support, if [you] could think of a way to sinch it better than melting the ends together.

ceeling bike storage is good idea but storing your bike upside down is not. your break fluid and suspention oil will move away from where they are supposed to go, your components will dry out, your bike will start to leak oil and if you have air bubble in them (even if you bled them perfectly air will air bubble will form eventualy) that usualy not a problem because air is lighter than the fluid and stay on top. But if you store your bike upside down then it's a problem because bottom of your bike (where you don't want the air bubbles becomes the new top and air moves there. If you can make a ceeling rack where you hang your bike from handlebar and saddle besides you can use a 3 hook design to store it as front wheel removed and handle bar turned then that would be a real space saver.

From a bike technician: do not, DO NOT, store a bike with hydraulic disc brakes with the levers facing DOWN and the calipers facing UP. Any air in the master cylinder (and they all have some) will find its way into the caliper (not good).
