I'm looking for a storage stand that supports the bike at the back wheel and lifts it off the ground by about 10-15cm. Lifting the rear wheel a bit ill allow me to store the bike in a tight fitting cupboard but without removing the wheels.
I've done a bit of googling but can't find anything suitable. Does anything like this exist?!

Andystand?
I've seen the andystand but it is quite bulky and would take up a lot of space which I don't have a lot of.
How about a big hook fitted to the back of the cupboard to hang the wheel from?
Hook could be an optio and already thought of that...only thing it's a partition plasterboard wall so not sure if would support the weight, even though it's a road bike. I could just take the wheels off and be done with it but rather avoid the hassle if I can.

We have a nice pink version
I had a similar thing holding a bike upright along the side of a van. We ended up using one of these straps we had handy anyway, fixed higher up the wall so the hook was at the right height. Hook happened to ideal for a wheel. Could you nail or screw the strap to the wall studwork? I've even seen these straps in Poundland so could be cheap as chips, or you could improvise with any straps/ropes and hooks you have already.

There is the compact folding andy stand.
Do these keep the wheel off the ground? http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product_storeId_10001_catalogId_10151_productId_522911_langId_-1_categoryId_242557
If not like above but cheaper:
Silly question maybe - small toolbox?
