| Can we see a photo Jason?
I’m about to begin converting a garage into a dedicated bike space, so all inspiration in this regard is most welcome! On Mar 20, 2025, at 5:34 PM, Jason Fuller <jtf.ful...@gmail.com> wrote:
I have the "ProSlat" system which I've mounted in a small storage room in our apartment. The bike hook slots in at various elevations and can slide side to side before being secured, so you can adjust each bike to make sure the handlebars etc play nice together. I'm very happy with the system - also a variety of other attachments for all sorts of stuff. I have simple hooks as well for my helmet, voile straps, etc. I have three bikes in a tiny 3.5' x 5' room with a standard interior door and while snug, it works great.

Dang Josh, That Gus, Atlantis, Hunq, Custom(?) combo is impressive!
Picked up the Delta rugged rack today and going to do some reworking of our sunroom/guestroom to make our storage/working space more usable.
If nothing else, love that this convo has me seeing all the stables and the beautiful Rivs you've all got! On Thursday, March 20, 2025 at 8:27:31 AM UTC-4 Josh C wrote:
I went with this sliding hook setup. It works great for my needs. I can store bikes pretty dang close together, and then just slide them apart to select the one that I want to get down. I took the idea from this YouTube video https://youtu.be/_deob4L4AEY?si=7LjU7jVJMlieOWAK and followed his instructions with a few slight mods given the hardware that I had access to at the local store. Since seeing this video, I know that a few companies have ripped off his idea and sold the rolling hooks, and they still do. Gearblocks is one of them. https://gear-blocks.com. Using their rolling hooks may be the easiest way to go but I did mine based on the video before the idea was implemented by any companies.
This pic is in our garage which is insulated and drywall finished as you can see.

Thanks Eric!
I figured this was a topic that’d been covered at least once before. I went ahead and ordered one of the delta cycle rugged racks that seem to have good reviews.
If nothing else I’ll have 2 bikes off the ground and the repair stand for the 3rd if I’m wrenching.
Thanks everyone!
Hi Drew — More options discussed here in this 2021/2022 thread on the same topic:
+1 for the inexpensive hardware store hooks. However if you have the misfortune to store a bike with hydraulic brakes- keep it horizontalish.

Like Ted, I've got a 2x4 and rubber-coated bike hooks in my workshop. This works well for me and is very inexpensive. More cash for cool bike parts!Cheers, John

As I approach another bike joining the fleet(more on that later...), wondering what bike racks/stands y'all have had good experiences with? For context My wife and I live in a smaller house and I try to store our bikes inside.
In my basement I ran a 2x4 across the wall at a height that allows bikes to hang from hooks as shown here. If I cared about protecting the wall surface below I'd mount a board or some other material. I alternate directions to fit them all in a small space.
