Indoor Bike Rack

Citizen Smith

Hi all, I don't have anywhere outside my flat to lock up my bike (well I did until someone nicked my bike and the parking display sign it was locked to but thats another story!).

I am looking to purchase a bike rack that I can install in the hallway to my house, preferably high up (7/8 ft from the ground) so it doesn't get in the way as it does now on the floor.

Can anyone recommend anything they have bought/seen?

Cheers,

Simon.

I got a device like this from lidls for around £5, weve got a victorian house with quite high ceilings and it works a treat, makes really light work of lifting the bike and keeps it right out of the way. Ive got plenty of clearance room between my head and the pedal when the bikes put away - I put the outer pedal at its top most position and can walk right under it without having to look up and worry

Doesn't mention he's got a tread pattern straight across his forehead! :P

Ive got it positioned over a radiator and the wheels lean towards the wall I use the cord that pulls the pulleys loop it through the front wheel under the hub and then secure it to the wall using the provided double hook thing, and that pulls it tight against the wall, so the bikes at a slight diagonal angle, makes it quite obstruction free
