Show me your non-hanging bike storage

[Spaghetti Legs]

I am slowly getting settled into a new house and working on getting my basement and bikes squared away. I have 15+, well OK, more like 20 including the wife and kid bikes. I found some threads on hanging bikes but I don't really want to go that route, except for maybe some of the less prized ones. I have one space of floor about 12 feet long that I figure can hold 8-10 bikes. Most likely I will hang frames/wheels above this space. There is this 5 bike floor stand on Amazon for about $35:

How are you folks doing it? I have many years experience of the creative floor stack and lean BTW. Here's what I have now:

I built one similar to this for about $30-40 in materials. Had 6 bikes standing in an eight foot length. Built slots of varying widths for varying tire sizes (road, cross/gravel, MTB).

hoping someone posts the racks like you see in a bike shop where you can stack the bikes at an angle...I want those...I need those.

Although I don't have either of these yet, odd are good that I will have one or both after the work on my house is finished (it hasn't started yet). What's currently our guest room will become my bike room and possibly will also serve as my home office too if there is enough room to properly display/store bikes and fit my desk. The manufacturer of these is Rudy Racks, which makes displays for bike shops.

A-frame event stand?

This is a hanging solution that is going to be at the Philly bike expo. Claim to be able to get 3 bikes in 8 vertical feet. Going to be checking them out

Thanks folks. I like the concept on the single track site. @lanternrouge, those manufactured ones are cool but very pricey and adds up when you have to stash more than 5 bikes.

One of the reviewers of the rack from amazon assembled the pieces to store the bik s at an angle, which I find intriguing.

Just a note on the single tracks one; the idea works, but i would recommend building it taller (using 2x6 and 2x8, for example) and "customizing" the slot widths to match your bikes/wheels exactly. It will be much more secure this way. Angles work well to fit more bike with less protrusion into the space.

These work well and can be connected to each other in a row: (I only have one, purchased here on this forum.)

A $50 Racor stand meant for 2 bikes can be easily hacked to hold 6 bikes. Just reverse the bottom upright bar and build a standoff out of a few 2x4's and bolt it all together.

I can send you a pic if that sounds like a solution. Helps if the wall is flat and standard room height.

The ones that don't fit can be shipped up here :rolleyes:

Where can you find one of those racks like the one in your first image (the one with the stepwise horizontal wheel trays --- kind of looks like a bleacher)?

This would be a pretty nice solution for my current garage setup, but my google skills are failing me today.

Any bike shop that uses JBI can order a 3-tiered Minour stand for you. Holds both wheels and the BB. Not cheap -- MSRP is $200. There's another Minoura tiered stand (also 3 bikes) that looks more like the type you see on the front of buses, but it's even more expensive (MSRP of $500).

My floor space is a bare minimum, so I hang them against a wall, alternating handlebars up/down. 16 inches apart along a wall takes up minimal space, and leaves the floor much more usable.

They were at NAHBS in Feb ‘18. Clever and fun. Worth checking out.

I use 4 of the same item, (though a different name)...bought from Amazon. Alternating bikes front and back clears the handlebars and does save space.
