Hello + Happy Friday PLF

My office just asked me to research bike storage for my and my gf's bikes and after a brief discussion with my office manager, we agreed on the vertical storage style where the bike is held up on the wall by one wheel. (see link below)

however, it needs to be more sleek looking and design oriented to match the rest of the office. it needs to look less nerdy.

any recommendations?

thanks!

Adam

CB2 has a great looking shelf/rack.

not pretty, but my office has these hanging in its parking garage. they've been very effective. bikes tend to cause things to get dirty anyway.

Any more install details. The bike hook you linked to can me installed pretty much anywhere there is a wall and clear space in front, but some of the sleeker bike storage options have different space and access requirements.

The CB2 option is sleek but way overpriced, and requires a good amount of clearance in front as well as side to side. Some of the modular rail and rack systems from Elfa and Rubbermaid are very slick but require similar clearances.

Pinterest is always good place to start in case you want a cacophony of ideas, and go from what looks good and what can work in the space your office provided.

I'm partial to the two solutions below for pure aesthetics:

Have a local carpenter build a minimal one for you!
