Bike storage, sort of

This is a question mainly for those who store their bikes in the hallway, or other areas where space is a premium. Hence posting in this section.
I recently came across a design for a component which allows one to rotate the handlebars through 90 degrees without any tools keys or the like, and I wondered why I hadn't seen it before.
To be open with you, I am thinking about starting a business to distribute (and maybe fit) them, but obviously need to know whether the public would use something like this. I perceive that those commuting from flats into work in major cities might be the best benficiaries, with space at a premium, so I'm really interested to see what you folks think.

Sounds like a useful thing. Presumably it's a sort of swivelling/jointed stem?Scott Sportster P45 2008 | Cannondale CAAD8 Tiagra 20120

The popular london cyclist blog often discusses things like that - a lot of people have the same problem. Maybe email the guy to ask if people would be interested? This was a recentish post of where people in london store their bike (hallways etc): http://www.londoncyclist.co.uk/where-do-you-store-your-bike-at-night/0

that's a very good idea indeed. Presumably it would also be useful for trains and suchlike.0
