I was very nervous putting my brand new beach cruiser on this rack. ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxG6JIgwJhur8_Rg8UeQ3EmePzi_wSncL8 But after reading many reviews I decided to get this one and take a chance. When arrived it was very simple to adjust and put together. I also added spike tape over the metal hooks before securing and tightening the straps, and no scratches. I also purchased the top bar made by the same company so that my cruiser sits straight on the rack without having to turn upside down. Extra bungee cords are used to secure the front wheel from flapping and even piece of mind knowing your bike is secure. Definitely recommend...
Very comprehensive, Ive viewed many bike stand builds...This I am gonna duplicate as it is simple - clear - precise and robust... Appreciated post Thnx Wilson
Definitely borrowing this idea! Much better option than the $80 hanger I was looking at. Might also attach the dowel rod to the rack with a string so it can hang when not in use.
Super clever design. I think I would position it by placing it on the tire and then do a wheelie to the wall with it still on the tire. I might cut the 90 degree corners off too, but I think I will use this in the bike shed. Thanks for sharing this!
I made something similar last winter, the garage has exposed studs. Piece of scrap on both sides of stud, then a folded in half scrap piece of inner tube secured on one side with a srew + washer to form a loop, other side a screw sticking out to hook the loop onto. Basically free and works well. Put the bike tire in and pull the inner tube through the spokes to hook on the other side.
I have to admit I just came in from shop and was thinking about doing something with one of my EBikes, and I got your notification, what perfect timing! LoL This looks super easy, thanks, this will be perfect. Doing it on a 4”, thanks again!
Absolutely brilliant … I don’t have the space to have the amount of equipment that you have but it is hands-down a brilliant, brilliant idea and I thank you for it because I will make the same except I’ll have to go to Home Depot and do all my cuts there.
Made it today a little different. I screwed "compartements" on a longer plank, so i can store 3 bikes. The extra secure with a dowel is a genius idea. Thanks.
Thanks Jack, I’ve been thinking about this design for a while … as you know these bikes are pretty heavy so it’s nice to not have to lift them. Glad to hear you bought a pedal assist … so much fun!
Very nice. I was just looking for a practical wall mount when I came across your video. Since I can't work with wood, I print the whole thing with my 3D printer. Thanks for the cool idea. Greets from Germany.
Love this idea ~ wonder if you’d had thought about making and bringing these to the retail market ?( for 4 inch tire e-bikes ) I could see these made out of acrylic too !
Since you store it in the shop - do you notice any dust buildup on the gears/chain? Never thought about whether chain oil and saw dust gums up over time
Very neat and detailed job, marvellous tools but personally wouldn't like to push my Maxxis tyre each time in the tight wood, wonder if it will start to damage the rubber sides of the tyre after a while...?
Hello John ...greetings from Peru 👋👋👋... It is very important to take care of our bikes, even if they cost US$10K each. After doing a research to see what were the best options, let me tell you that your solution to hang your bike up was the simplest one I saw.... At the beginning I was closed to buy a Steadyrack Bike and expend US$180 for a pair, but after watching your video I made the same rack as yours, but I added a couple of hinges in the backside which connects the rack on to the wall. In this way I can fold my bikes, but only in way way. Thanks for sharing your video. I have just one question. I want to buy the same drill bit that you are using to do your guiding holes. Where did you get it??? I will appreciate your tip. ... Have a nice and save ride ...
The downside of this type of bike rack is that if you have hydraulic brakes, the caliper is above the lever master cylinder. This can present problems.
The weight is bearing on the rim, not the spokes. The spokes on a bicycle rim are designed to support the weight of the rider plus the forces from riding. The tension of the spokes effectively suspend the hub from the upper part of the rim as the wheel rotates. This is why some wheel manufacturers are able to employ 'soft' spokes made out of essentially nylon rope (look up Berd wheels) which is said to offer a different ride quality to traditional rigid spokes.
Jon was that the same blade on your miter saw cutting the plywood and doweling? And if so how many tooth is it? Also don't think I didn't see the 2 shelves you made for each one of your sneakers 😆
Great simple build Jon! Just curious, when the tire is flat, how do you get the bike out of the rack? If you pull the dowel out it will fall back I think? Will it become a two man job then? (especially with this bike being so heavy?)
Works good for one bike. For a family set of bikes, it's no good. Can't get in there to access the dowel. I have yet to figure out an elegant solution for a racing family of 10+ bikes. I'm sure you could figure it out!
I can just hear the cracking sound of the wood where it is screwed on when walking past and knocking my bike a bit. I know because i knock my bike alot, but my wall rack holds the tire loosely. I do like this design though, but it doesn't appear to be "knock into bike proof".
Nice idea. I was just wondering. I was once told that storing a bike (with disc brakes) like that could cause problems with the brakes. Because of the way it's held vertically, you can get air bubbles in the oil of the hydraulic brakes causing them to fail. Please somebody correct me if I'm wrong because this solution would help me and my 5 bikes 😜
@@kvcp2563 because that is how the whole system is designed to operate. There are small breather holes at the master cylinder (lever) end, which, if stored 'upside down' will leak oil out and let air in the system.
Never hang your bike for long term storage . Or even a couple days. Not good for the fluids. Simply store it standing on its tires as if you were gonna ride it. That’s the way it is designed. I like your idea and not bashing it. But from experience hanging high end mountain bikes I have had problems. Maybe you won’t .!
Is this your cheapest project ever? That’s gotta be three dollars worth of materials. One question… Why would people be worried the bike would fall if … it’s trapped by a dowel? Doesn’t make any sense to me. Oh well.

The bike was easy to install and was a perfect give for my aunt. She really loves taking it out around the neighborhood.
Nice one. How about a string attached to the pin so it doesnt lie around but can hang on to the side of the rack?
Great idea!👍
Maybe a second dowel hole out of the reach of the tire

how SIMPLE it is!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D a big TX for sharing my friend!!! :D
Liked everything about it!
I like this simple design a lot, Jon. The "No lifting" aspect is good for kids too! Best, Andrew
Thanks Andrew

I'd love to see a photo or video if you have one! This sounds awesome!
Nice !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Ima try and make this work for my regular bike! Thanks Jon!!!!!!!
I like you from Bangladesh ❤ your performance
Very nice - simple design and it works.
Brilliant. So simple. Thanks
Well done Jon! Easy and very functional! 👍👍
Love this, so simple, I’m off down the shed to make a couple, thanks for sharing ❤
Nice!
Too easy, too smart, well done!
Thanks! Thing really does work great 👍
I have an eBike and love this design. Will try and build something like this
Cool! These bikes are so much fun! Great to be able to ride with my three sons in their 20s. This system is really easy to make and works great 👍
I'm always struggling to find an easy way to store my pedal assist bike. What a great idea, Jon - thanks!
Thanks Jack, I’ve been thinking about this design for a while … as you know these bikes are pretty heavy so it’s nice to not have to lift them. Glad to hear you bought a pedal assist … so much fun!

Just cover it ! Not that HARD 😎
Awesome idea! Does the bottom tire roll backwards? There seems to be no back tire support keeping it from moving.
Very neat and detailed job, marvellous tools but personally wouldn't like to push my Maxxis tyre each time in the tight wood, wonder if it will start to damage the rubber sides of the tyre after a while...?
Thanks, so far so good 👍
so practical. love your content. miss the painting vids sometimes too.
I also miss those painting videos.
Изобрёл велосипед! Хотя все уже давно придумано и есть такие крепления. Но за любовь к велосипед у поставлю лайк

Brilliant idea
Nice setup, do you think if the holder was positioned at 45deg angle you would be able to fit multiple bikes within a smaller space ?
That might work 👍
Brilliant 🙌
Great design 👍
Thanks!
Nice and simple build...🤘🤘🤘
Good job.
Awesome!
I was going to buy a $150 dollar bike rack but instead I bought $10 000 worth of tools and built this!
LOL, great video by the way.
Lol, build a surfboard rack next… pretty soon the tools will pay themselves off 😂👍
Beautiful
Thanks!
super idea thanks for showing :)
Nice 👍🏴🇬🇧
The downside of this type of bike rack is that if you have hydraulic brakes, the caliper is above the lever master cylinder. This can present problems.
So don't use it but don't complain about a great free idea either.
Very cool
Thank you for sharing! What T blade do you have on your miter saw?
NICE!!
That’s a nice little MTB corner you’ve built there. Is that a siding you trimmed out?
Will the friction fit damage the tire? Does it matter that the weight seems to be on the bottom tire?
Not at all, really works great… been using the first one for more than a year… no problems
makasih ilmunya pakle 🙏
Brilliant
Nice idea. I would move the dowel closer to the rim just to minimize the movement rearward if the air pressure is low or if it drops.
Is okay but some wheels have aluminium spokes that are fragile and can snap as a result of putting all the weight on it.
The weight is bearing on the rim, not the spokes.
The spokes on a bicycle rim are designed to support the weight of the rider plus the forces from riding. The tension of the spokes effectively suspend the hub from the upper part of the rim as the wheel rotates. This is why some wheel manufacturers are able to employ 'soft' spokes made out of essentially nylon rope (look up Berd wheels) which is said to offer a different ride quality to traditional rigid spokes.
Excellent project. But I have to ask: Why are there individual shelves on the adjacent back wall for single shoes?
How about....its what he wanted!
Could I get a recommendation on placing these bike rack on brick walls?
Do a UA-cam search on how to use lead anchors in brick… That should help
Hmm.. is that a remote to turn off the saw ? Is it a 220 controller ? I hate reaching down to operate the one on my saw. And the bike rack's neat too.
The remote is for the dust collection
@@JonPetersArtHome Thanks for your response Jon
Geniale👍
Could this work horizontally in a van ?
Nice bike
Thanks!
Hi Jon..love your videos...🙂🙂
Thanks Pamela
Jon was that the same blade on your miter saw cutting the plywood and doweling?
And if so how many tooth is it? Also don't think I didn't see the 2 shelves you made for each one of your sneakers 😆
Great minimal rack.
Why not jus drill a bigger hole for dowel??
Great simple build Jon!
Just curious, when the tire is flat, how do you get the bike out of the rack? If you pull the dowel out it will fall back I think? Will it become a two man job then? (especially with this bike being so heavy?)
Thanks, just put some air in the tire 👍
@@JonPetersArtHome haha, yes that would work. Unless you have a huge punture in the tire 😉
if you cant lower the bike when it has a flat tire you likely cannot lift it to the wheelie position to put it in the bracket to begin with.
So I just spent £11000 on all those tools the wife ain’t pleased I tried to tell her but the bikes not in the way anymore but she’s not having it?!
Nice. Thanks from a life long cyclist. Not complaining about no ads, but is your channel demonetized?
Works good for one bike. For a family set of bikes, it's no good. Can't get in there to access the dowel. I have yet to figure out an elegant solution for a racing family of 10+ bikes. I'm sure you could figure it out!

Many bicycle service shops hang the service bikes like this. Nothing to be concerned about. Get your 5 organized and save yourself some space.
As long as the levers are higher than the calipers you're fine.

To make $10 bike rack, you need to buy $1000 tools :) but idea is good
Wait till the tire deflates!
Never do this with carbon wheels
