Road Cycling - Storage ideas...

Friends -

I'm building a new house and will be moving in in a couple of months. I need to come up with a storage system for our various bikes: one road bike, one MT bike, my wife's general purpose bike and a Cannondale tandem.

I can consider floor or wall systems for this purpose; where can I see some different storage systems online? Any specific recommendations???

Thanks,

Why spend alot of money. A 2x4 bolted to the wall studs, and some coated hooks. Or hooks in ceiling joists.

Go to Nashbar, Performance, and Colorado Cyclist for some ideas.

coated hooks are the best

i bought an aluminum rack made by sport solutions. it goes from floor to ceiling and holds two bikes (can hold up to four w/extra set of hangers).
i bought it off their website as a blem (64.00+ship). it holds bikes securely and looks good too.

Here's how I store my bikes. Total cost: ~$20. Total time spent: 1hour. I use bungie cords because they absorb the shock coming from above - my kids bedrooms. One can even use $2 pulleys to lower/lift the bikes, but since the my bikes aren't very heavy, I don't mind lifting/lowering manually ;)

Here's a closer view.

I've wrapped the hook that holds the bike with duct tape so the paint doesn't get scratched.
