Apartment dweller here, I can’t store it outside and I don’t have a garage, I was getting tired of just having it in the living room so I came up with this slightly better idea.
Anyone have any nice setups for keeping your bikes in your living spaces?

It goes in the bike pile in the basement with all the other bikes, obviously.
Or my car, but it can only fit one bike
On a trainer for the rainy days
I had one of those in my balcony once … unfortunately on a standard 8 feet apartment, even when you lift it all the way up, the bike still gets in the way
I just put it on the ground floor of my apartment building, next to the entrance to the basement
I have 2 bikes and I live in an apartment. They come inside the apartment and live right by the front door against the wall.
Same as me, I guess
Awhile back I saw a system where you would hang your bike on the wall using 2 hooks under the top bar. But the hooks have to be long enough so that the wheels don’t touch the wall, or you’ll get black stains from the tyres.
All over the garage where my car is supposed to be parked.
I lock it up outside.
If you’re cold, they’re cold.
Pupper mentioned, now we require the photographic tax!
Leaning against my living room wall where I can see and admire her whenever I like.
LOL
Let’s see her
Ignore the mud. She had a rough day at the jump track yesterday.
sweeeet
nice gearing
She’s the best. Goes down and up any trail I can find. She’ll jump 8 meters (more if she had a better rider than me) without complaining a bit.
Making me put the gravel tires back on mine XD
I wish I had some nice mountain trails around me but unfortunately I live in one of the flattest places on earth
How do you clean her? any recommendations for the gear train?
I just spray her down with water and then scrub with dish soap and water. Just make sure you scrub the drive train after the discs so you don’t fuck your brake pads with grease residue. But most of the time I just leave her dirty because I ride most days and it gets old cleaning mud off her. I call it structural mud with my friends. If she sounds rough or the mud starts falling off in chunks I’ll give her a quick wash.
In the covered bicycle parking that my apartment building provides.
In the shipping container outside. I think the tyres perished. Got a dog that needs to be with me all the time and can’t run fast, so I’m stuck walking instead. I did buy a child trailer thing but couldn’t seem to mount it on the rear wheel quick release hoohaa.
I was thinking of getting a shipping container, how do you like yours as a bike shed?
It’s good and cheap, but they get quite hot inside when in sunlight. Some people add ventilation panels / spinning roof vents to help.
The downhill bike i don’t ride anymore hangs on my living room wall, the enduro i still ride is in my basement on the bike repair stand or whatever you call it. Ebike hangs on another wall and my bmx just does whatever
😂🤣 Typical BMX
I just store mine behind the front door. It really doesn’t get in the way!
Smart! Easy access but not in the way
