I want to buy one of those wall mount bike racks that look like a brightly coloured plastic bucket ! :lol:
It holds the bike by the top tube .

Has anyone seen them recently ? :roll:

    Google is your friend :wink:

    From that search I found that the brackets are called Cycloc. The first company in the list doesn't have them in stock so I searched again, for Cycloc this time. This company have them in stock. CRIKEY - £59.99 is a lot of cash for a bracket made of recycled plastic!

    The first result in my original search has many alternative bike storage solutions starting at a much more reasonable £4.99! See here.

    mmm the third option looks a good one and its only 10 pound too. I'll probablt settle for that. At that price its not worth making something really.
    I certainly wouldn't want to hang my road bike by one of the rims though ?! :shock: :shock: ok for hybrids and MTB rims I suppose

    Thanks for looking it out .Appreciated :wink:

    I've got a track system from IKEA. Don't ask me what it is called, probably bolok or something,

    Anyway, it is dead simple - an aluminium bar with a groove in it that you screw to the wall and then any number of different kinds of hooks that you can put in and out as you wish.

    The longest ones hold the top tube and the littler ones hold shoes, helmet, spares etc. in the space behind the bike. Very neat and it was quite cheap.
