Looking on line and found these, they look a good solution to be able to access each bike without moving another, was going to mount them one high one low so they can be staggered overlapping bars. Has anyone done similar or got a better solution? All MTBs by the way.

Yes I have those. 3 lined up next to each other. I set them all at the same height and then alternate each bike as either hanging from the front or rear wheel to keep the handle bars clear of each other.

Attached to a concrete block wall with decent rawlplugs. None have fallen off yet. My old spesh rockhopper pro isn't the lightest by far either.

Don't put them too close to each other as I find you need a bit of angle to hock the rim round the hook.

Ive got one just like that - easy to use and no problems.

Like said you have to put the bike in at an angle

Ok should work then, I'm hoping to squeeze 4 in a 2metre recess in the garage, that maybe tight if the bikes need to go in at an angle, I guess if I trimmed the hook making it less of a hook that would reduce the angle needed.

Very pleased, going to move the city bike to the 2nd high hanger as obviously that's the one that's hard to get the bike down from and it's not ever used (I gave it to my father for a christmas present but he returned it later as decided he's now too old to ride it, he is in his late 70's).

I did modify them all though taking 1" off the hook to make it easier to get the big mtb tyres in.
