Hi all
I moved into a new flat recently. Annoyingly I have a garden, but no side access, so in order to store my bike in the shed I'd need to traipse it into and out of the flat every day, which is a faff. So I'm looking at wall storage. I have plenty of wall space, and a spare bedroom which I pretty much only use as my office except on the rare occasions a guest stays over, so I don't mind my "ugly" bike being in there. I'm just trying to work out how to store it best to minimise it sticking out.
I think in terms of the layout of the room, storing it horizontally (i.e. wheels at the same level) would work better than vertically, but the main thing I don't like is that the handlebars and pedals will stick out pretty far. Does anyone have any innovative ways to deal with this, or should I just live with it? Thanks!
