Bike Nook

The installation instructions are easy to follow, the material is great quality, and it does exactly as it advertised...saves space. I only rated the stability a 4-star because the product videos show all example bikes with wide tires; however, if you have narrower tires (my bike is a hybrid and its tires are much narrower than say a mountain bike or cruiser) then you bottom tire support has too much room and doesn't hold/brace the tire securely. To add better stability at the base I added a foam pad to rest my tire on and fill the gap of the wheel support. As you can see it works very well, is stable, and now stands straight and secure. The stand also comes with a front tire velcro strip to lock your front tire and prevent your handlebars from turning. Again, the product video doesn't show this with the types of bikes they domonstrate, but I experienced my handlebar immediately turning to one side or the other making the wheel stick out. The velco strip works very well and hold the front tire securely allowing it to be inline and the wheel to stay straight. I have a standard two car garage and decided to place my stand and bike in one of the corners. It fits perfect, then handlebars are out of the way, and allows access for two cars and plenty of space to walk around the car next to where the bike is parked. This is a great product, well made, easy to assemble and worth the price. It does exactly what I wanted it to do...hold my bike securely and save space.

We moved to a condo with 2-levels underground parking. We own 2 folding mountain bikes; not heavy but also not light. In our new home, we no longer need to travel to the trails as we now live much closer by but due to limited space, we had to store both bikes in the back of our SUV. While this saved space indoors it added complexity that ultimately demotivated us to ride at all. Not only did we have to unload, unfold, and inflate; we now also had to carry the bikes up two flights of cork-screw stairs!.. Our first attempt to correct the situation was to bring the bikes, fully assembled, indoors. It solved some problems but created others. In-home, they were a bulky, unsightly booby-trap. Enter the Bike Nook. We don't have enough wall space for a wall mounted solution or anything that would stick out. Even if we did, while lifting a bike for one reason or other is unavoidable, lifting one over your head is another thing entirely. No thanks. The Bike Nook is perfect. It doesn't add visual or physical bulk to already bulky equipment. Though not decorative, the Nooks allow our bikes to occupy a mere 3.5 square feet of space in the farthest back, out of the way, corner of our den/bonus room. No more bumping into them and trying catch yourself and the bike before either of you hit the ground. If you push there's a tiny wobble but not dangerously so. The Bike Nook is generally very sturdy with thick coated steel parts. Note: We also don't have the space to roll these two wheeled onto the stands the way you'd back up a car but the Bike Nook still works. We simply raise onto the back tire and roll into position. One star off only because of the small jiggle that seems to go away once loaded. It's not enough to make the bikes unstable (our bikes don't move!) but could be even sturdier if, for example, more of it were welded together rather than assembled with screws. Otherwise, it's very well built and solved our problem so despite the nit-pick, we love it.

I bought one of these to keep my new bike in the house last year. It was easy to assemble and use, and since it props the bike up, the bike takes up less space than otherwise. Once my workplace opened up again, I bought a second for my office since I bike to work. Both at home and in the office, the stand keeps the bike tucked away pretty well. The only downside is that it doesn't hold the bike as solidly as I would like — it mostly works via balance — but it does the job. I have found that it helps to put the stand and bike in a corner so the wall can help keep the bike stable and to avoid it being bumped or brushed against. That said, it is the best I've seen for freestanding bike stands for situations like offices or rentals where you can't mount things to the wall.

Ottima soluzione per ridurre l'ingombro della bici in una stanza o nel garage senza fare fori nei muri. Io lo sto usando su una mountain bike per ragazzo (24''), è abbastanza facile da montare, seguendo le istruzioni (l'ho montata da sola) e la bici si aggancia in un lampo.

OK, I am very happy with this little thing. The instructions are not so good, but it's easy to work out how it goes together. I am in a (small) one-bedroom unit and it saves me a lot of space. It seems sturdy enough and the quality overall I cannot fault. Maybe it's a tad overpriced, but, for what you get it's a good quality space saver (which I desperately needed).

Fácil de armar, resistente, ahorra bastante espacio, al principio estaba escéptico si la bicicleta se caería fácilmente al primer movimiento, pero comprobé que es bastante estable.

Easy to put together. and is good quality. I like that it's freestanding and doesn't require any hole drilling into the walls like other stands. It holds my very heavy ebike securely, freeing up space. It was worth the money.

Queda genial y no ocupa espacio muy recomendable para pisos no muy amplios pero en general para cualquier espacio pequeño.
