Any recommendations for bike wall or floor stand?

[Archangel]

Hi guys,

I just bought me a new house and I should be able to get some of my bikes (especially Tinker Adroit) on display.
Does anyone know a good wall hanger "stand" or alternatively a nice floor stand? Any recommendations? And please remember, it's not meant for storage but for display purposes...

Thanks,
Kai

How many will you be displaying? It might be fun to build one.

I'd make one from a nice piece of wood and minimalistic wire supports for the bike like tthose available form minoura - http://www.wiggle.co.uk/minoura-bike-to ... ra-cradle/

although their stand wouldn't detract from the bikes and gets good reviews... http://www.wiggle.co.uk/minoura-bike-tower-stand/

There's one on Ikeahackers made from Stoleman parts and some square tubing. I made one for about $60 (40 quid?). Looks pretty good in the kitchen (yeah, I'm single).

not mine, but you get the idea.

The Tortec wall mount is pretty good, I have one in my garage, I don't see why you couldn't use one in the house though.

Sounds great, there are some good looking internal bike stands, that extend from floor to ceilling and hold two or three bikes.
I may have seen some like this in the Colorado Cyclist, Nashbar or Performance Cycles catalogs a while back?
Might try and find a picture later if work is quiet tonight!

That's the type of thing was refering to only a 'ready to fit' version, but it looks good and the price is too!

Some of these will still look good when the bike isn't there...

minoura - but you could make this one...

very home made...

I have seen a thing called a 'Cycloc' it looks a little like a melted bucket but seems to do the job well, even if it is a little expensive.

'Like 1,2 and 4 number 3 is as you say very home made, it'd benefit from some paint or stain to even up the colour of the various parts.
I would need something quite special for my spaceframed Moulton APB's though?
