Stumbled across a system from Gladiator at Home Depot.
Basically a universal wall rail that can accommodate various attachments, one of them being bike hooks.
Thought I'd give it a try and have to say it works really well and looks nice.
Another benefit besides the look, is that it is easy to rearrange the hooks, e.g. to hang bikes that I ride less closer than the ones I use often.

That is a cool-looking system. How solid does the install feel? I have about 300 lbs worth of bikes/frames/wheels hanging above our cars in the garage and was being really picky about how much a system could hold without crashing down. I'd love to have something that looks a bit cleaner like this, but am more concerned about the ability to handle the load put on it.
By the way, that is a beautiful color on your CSI!
