I want to store my commuter bike on the side of an outside wall at home. Im sure that there are hooks that I could buy that would do the job...
But want something that could be recycled to do the job....a bit unique that will hang the bike accross the top tube.
So any one got a cheap and easy idea that involves a bit of recycling that would be a suitable way of me storing my bike?
It'll look naff, but bolt a sturdy wooden chair upside down, back to the wall, with the legs cut shorter to allow the bike on/off??

I made a rack to support a couple of bikes by the top tube in my shed to free up space. There ain't a lot of room, so the mechanism is lightly sprung so the arms fold up flat against the wall when you take the bikes off. Made it out of recycled box-section, but I doubt that's exactly what you meant by 'recycled' 😉

Um, not that innovative, but why not put two hooks on the wall? 🙄
Not recycled but cheap and easy to fit.

Saw the the guy who makes/invented [url= http://www.cycloc.com/ ]these[/url] at the bike show last year and the black one is made from 100% recycled plastic. Not cheap tho
