6-Bike Rack for $60 in 60-seconds

Building a compact bike rack for 6 bikes in 60 seconds.

We needed a place to put our bikes. We originally had them hanging from hooks in the ceiling but it was difficult for my wife to get them down without a ladder and impossible for the kids. So we needed an efficient, easy solution.

So we thought, why not hang our bikes like clothes in a closet?

Materials:

  • 1 - 6' 2x4
  • 1 - 6' 3/4" black pipe
  • 2 - 3/4" black pipe nipples
  • 2 - 3/4" black pipe flanges
  • 6 - 3" stainless steel welded rings
  • 6 - Husky 18" Hangers
  • 4" drywall screws
  • 3" drywall screws

Build Time: 30 minutes

Cost: $60 (about)
