How to Mount a Cycle on the Wall?

anotheruser

Can anyone recommend any way to mount a cycle on to a solid brick wall?

It had quick release wheels so could grab them off and have them separate but it will keep it out the way during the winter months.

Thanks

or selection of brackets at B&Q etc

I used to keep mine on a wall in a flat when space was a major issue, so I just stuck a couple of hooks in the wall in appropriate places, and turned the handlebars to get it as flat against the wall as possible. I had to manually remove the front wheel each time (and hang it on another hook) but it was the only way to store it without it sticking so far out.

As Sedulous says, put a couple of hooks in and drop the front wheel off. Otherwise you could look at something like this if multiple bikes are required (and why wouldn't they be?!): http://www.amazon.co.uk/Peruzzo-CYCLE-STORAGE-BIKES-WALL/dp/B001F0QE9U/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1412246180&sr=8-1&keywords=cycle+storage


We have a free-standing 2-bike stand like this (also available in the UK if you look hard enough!): http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/like/290796408010?limghlpsr=true&hlpv=2&ops=true&viphx=1&hlpht=true&lpid=108&device=c&adtype=pla&crdt=0&ff3=1&ff11=ICEP3.0.0-L&ff12=67&ff13=80&ff14=108&ff19=0

Aldi had a bike stand in the special buy last week.

Looks good but out of stock EVERYWHERE
Will check out B&Q and look for something similar - thanks!

I had something similar to the argos one shown - have just changed to the vertical hook type like this:

so much better

It's expensive, but the topeak dual might be an alternative - no need to drill into the wall.

Or get one of these - then you'll have a work stand as well as a bike holder.

I'd look at the wheel only one but I need it to be quick high up, at least a metre off the ground, so I'd need something a bit more secure.

Still looking at the dual bar type although I think I only have one brick to drill into on the wall.

Assuming that you plan to store the bike for the winter and will not need to use it occasionally, have you considered remote storage with a friend or relative who has space in a shed, garage or attic etc?

Perhaps you have an attic yourself.
