How do you guys carry bicycles inside?

I welded up a steel frame and screwed some track it so that the bikes stand vertically, alternating between front tire up and rear tire up. The track (and frame) extends horizontally at the bottom to better support the weight of each bike. There is a bar between the bikes to keep them secure and a large hook up high to hold them in place while I strap the wheels to the trays. Darn thing weighs more than my two bikes....but it is rock solid.

Do these bikes have hydraulic brakes? I hang my drop bar bikes upside down in my shop at home because they have mechanical brakes, but I have yet to consider that for the hydraulic brake bikes as my friends who flip their bikes over even to install the wheels have introduced air into the system and I've ended up having to bleed their brakes for them.

Mechanical brakes.

Since you have such variety of bikes, with different frames and wheels, and can't hang them, maybe you can strap them to appropriately sized tracks that are screwed to the floor and run two more straps (one on each side) from the frame/seat post down to eye bolts in the floor to keep them stable. It will take a lot of space, but it's a simple solution that allows for some flexibility if you get a different bike.

Good luck and happy riding.
