Can any of you fellas help? I've just had a dream garage / workshop built but can't work out how to store the bikes... I have a DH bike, a trail bike and the mrs has one. U would rather hang them on the wall but must be secure and lockable somehow but with easy access as I use them 3 times a week. Any help would be great..thx
Mine hang by their saddles on a pipe which sits across the roof joists. Ground anchor fixed to the wall and a hoofin' great chain through the frames locked to the furthest bike from the wall. HTH
I have a scaffold bar across the width of the garage just below chest hight. Hook the saddle over it with the back wheel off the ground; stores about 10 bikes. A long chain goes all the way through and loops into various shackle points.

The folding versions can be raised up if you need the space.
I'm quite pleased with mine.
