I need to neatly store a couple of bkes, unfortunately I rent, so don't want to risk drilling holes. Have seen this wall-leaning rack from Edniburgh co-op:

Anyone have this themselves? I'll have a MTB on the bottom and my roadie on the top, so thinking it should be nicely bottom heavy.

    I have one of these. Same idea, maybe sturdier, cheaper at £40, works brilliantly, very stable, top leans on the wall.

    That looks quite good actually - will have another search about and see what else I can find.

    It is by far the cheapest, but more expensive ones may look more attractive being made of aluminium rather than epoxy coated steel - this wasn't an issue for me, and the plus point was that it is very sturdy, more so than the alu ones would be that I would imagine are quite rocky when unloaded. I had the same issue with not being allowed to drill holes, and my ceilings are 5 metres high, so the type that fits between floor and ceiling were of no use (may be for you though).

    If I had my way I'd hang them all round the flat, but unfortunately they need to fit behind the car in the garage, so how it looks isn't that important.

    Thats a neat bike stand and looks good for £40. I just use my workstand in the garage as a permanent bike rack.
