Garage Floor stand for bikes

[beedj]

Has anybody used something like these ….

I have 4x (good) MTBs currently leaning against walls and want a better solution - these seem ideal but wondering if any undue force on wheels or if rear mech/disks might interfere

ps. I don’t want wall storage: (i) I have plenty space for 'floor mounted' , and (ii) I’m paranoid about one falling on my car :-)

I’ve had one for years without any problems. I mounted on the wall though so it holds the wheels but the weight of the bike is still on the ground.

Stands which lookvaguely like that vary a lot.

If they're wide enough to allow a big mtb tyre, they may either let a narrow tyre lean too far or hit a rear mech.

Something which holds a wheel by the bottom plus the front edge may work better?

I have a few of these for our family bikes, sure you could fix them if you wanted like your OP suggestion.

I use and can recommend: https://www.sjscycles.co.uk/transporting-bicycles/...

Will work up to a 2.35 tyre

Slightly different suggestion, I have one of these (was available on Amazon at the time), which frees up a lot of space, although you do need to be able to get at it from both sides, have a fairly level floor, and decent height clearance. I've got an XL hardtail, the wife's medium hardtail on the bottom, and 2 XL road bikes on the top.

All the bikes sit off the ground as well, so you can fire up some freehub angry bees as you pass if you're into that kind of thing

Thanks all I'll check these out . At least one rack needs to accommodate 2.6 tyres (Specialized Levo Carbon eMTB)

Ive got one - they work, mine was from Homebase or some similar DIY place and holds 3 bikes

Main issue is that need to put in front wheel, if use back wheel can sometimes knock the deraillier.
So can't really put them nose to tail.

These work very well on all my bikes inc E mtb with 2.6 x29

If you mount them on the wall rather than the floor then your derailleur is safe and you can park nose to tail (that’s my approach anyway). Sometimes putting the bike in the highest gear before you park up gives sufficient clearance between wheel and derailleur if floor mounted.

I've got a couple of these

Dead handy as I can move them outside when needed
