Bike Storage Recommendations

[keaveny]

I just moved into our house and I need to outfit the garage for bike storage. At any one time I have eight to ten bikes that need stored.

There are a plethora of hooks, winches, hangers, racks, etc. and just wondered if anybody has any favorite way to store bikes that also maximizes floor space (A man needs room for a good workbench in the garage, after all).

Thanks,

It seems like some sort of rack that mounts to the wall and holds multiple bikes is about the best idea I can envision. 2-3 bikes high on the wall, 2-3 low on the wall maybe? Depends on the height of your garage I guess (mine is so low I have to walk around bent over)

I don't know if such a thing actually exists, but I'm sure something could be whipped up fairly easily on that workbench

I do have some friends that insist that any sort of winch arrangement isn't worth the hassle
