The king of the bike racks is this elegant freestanding rack that makes it easy to stack two bikes on top of each other in a small space. Whether you put this in your sprawling garage or in the living room of your small apartment, it helps keep bikes from marking up your wall, and lifts them up and out of the way.
We love a fancy bike rack, and this industrial pipe one is great for making bike storage look a bit more intentional. Pro tip: Don’t even try to hang a wall mount like this using drywall anchors, make sure you find a spot with an actual wood stud to screw into. The push/pull of putting a bike up on it and taking it down is a lot to ask of any drywall.
Set up your indoor training studio in the basement or the spare room by putting down these simple foam tiles. Protect your floors from your trainer setup, and also provide yourself with a softer floor to do your strength training and yoga. The best part? Sweat wipes off these foam tiles incredibly easily, so your sufferfest won’t seep down into the hardwood flooring.
So many devices to charge post-ride these days! With this 6-Port USB Charging Station, you can easily charge your computer, front light, rear light, shifters, and whatever other random device you brought with you on your ride all in one place. No more preride problem of: “Computer is upstairs, light is in the garage, and I’ve lost my headphones!”
This set of clear plastic drawers is 72 percent off its normal price, so if you’ve been looking for a way to organize gloves, caps, socks, shorts, rain gear, warmers, jerseys and jackets, now’s your chance. This comes as a set of six single drawers, so you can stack them however best suits your needs. It’s ultra customizable for any closet or basement storage setup, which makes it great for all your awkward cycling stuff.
Whether you’re serious about bike maintenance or you want a spot to simply show off your collection of sunglasses, caps and other in-ride accoutrement, a pegboard is one of our favorite organizational tools, and this one is currently 35 percent off. Your garage or basement bike area will instantly look more orderly when you use a black pegboard to organize tools and other small riding gear.
Have a lot of extra outdoor gear and the garage is getting a little too full? Consider snagging one of these small metal storage sheds for spillover. While we wouldn’t suggest storing your priciest bikes in a separate shed, this can be used for all the other stuff taking up space in your garage to leave you more room for bikes. (It's also a great spot to store commuter bikes and kiddie bike gear, like that trailer you only use a few times a year.)
If you have bikes that don’t get used too often or are seasonal—like fat bikes for winter riding—a ceiling mount can help keep a garage much more spacious. We don’t love this system for everyday use, if we’re being honest, but for a bike that doesn’t see much saddle time, it’s a great way to claw back space in a small spot.
