Bike Storage - Hanging from wall?

[screenman]

The correct answer to this question is that we had a fairly long discussion on this subject back in September in THIS THREAD so this one is redundant!

I have read that sort of reply before, so does that make it redundant. To be honest Colin I remember old posts when pointed out but many new people join and just ask questions so I answer them.

I once belonged to a trade forum that encouraged people to search for answers before posting, the forum soon dried up and people lost interest.

Perhaps I should have worded it better!

I'm not suggesting that we ignore people, just that we try not to fragment and repeat information too much. A simple link to the original thread would have probably have been enough to satisfy reefcat.

There have been times where I have got very confused because I hadn't noticed that I was replying to questions on the same subject in 2 different threads.

I hang my bikes with wheel hangers. 2 in the living room corner, 2 in the bedroom alcove. Works well. Even Hubsters aluminium bike gets hung, it's heavier than the 'carbon flimsies' as he calls them, but it's fine hang away.

Thank you for your comments & links
I do use the search facility & have spent some time looking through older threads, with many questions answered. Don't know why I didn't in this case....

This question's fully answered now & I am measuring up garage wall to see what I ca fit where. Thanks again

Could you not find a monitor that colour matched the work bench ?
That shelve needs tiding as well !

Good job those bikes are hung out the way, so there's enough room for everything else. Oh, wait....

It is tidy now, in other words empty.

The monitor matches the walls. It is going to be replaced this year with a newer larger smart tv.

[QUOTE 4064843, member: 9609"]I had one of those gas blowers (a mini one 12kw ?) and it was far too powerful and far too noisy for a small double garage. This little 4kw propane job is far better, least I can listen to the radio when its on.[/QUOTE]

Could you not get something like this for your shed/garage?

Easy to install, cheap fuel (wood) and they throw out a great amount of heat, and not to mention the cosiness factor.

I need more of an instant source or one like underfloor, I have a few friends who use log burners in the garage, but figured it would not suit my needs.

They sure look nice though.

That other thread was one that I started.

Just mentioning, as I didn't know if hanging the bikes would work or if I would like it. It's been a few months now and can't imagine storing the bikes any other way.

Here's a more friendly response than my original one might have seemed ...

I bought 4 bike hangers on eBay but changed my mind about using them (I have created enough free floor/wall space to just lean the bikes against a couple of walls.) I will be happy to donate them to the first 4 people who want them The catch is - you have to turn out on one of my forum rides next year to take delivery in person! (If you can't wait, they are only £8.39 incl. p&p HERE.)

Thats an impressive garage mate !!!

Just a tiny thought here if hanging parallel to the wall [depends on height too I guess] you might want to remove the outer pedal - ok maybe it's me but the number of times I seem to catch something [including me] on it is unbelievable
