I tied lengths of light and soft rope from the joists and put an open loop on the loose end. Then I drove a big nail into the side of the joist that I can hook the loop over. To hang the bike I just put the rope under the stem or seatpost and lift the loop onto the nail.
The bikes hang away from the wall and off the floor. If I want to put a bunch of them in a close area I can hang them alternating by their stems or seatposts, this way the bars don't bash into each other. It basically the same as using the rubber coated hooks but it is easier to get the bikes on and there is no risk of damaging anything.
