Foldaway Bike Racks

I always have people staying with me who have bikes. I needed a way store all of there bikes in my garage and still have space to parka car and build. This simple project lets you make cheap fold away bike racks.

1 1x4x48 wood
4 2" wood screws
4 Washers

I made one piece and used it as a template for the rest. You'll need to measure how ffar apart your studs are for the stop, Also make sure you have enough room between the wall and your handlebars.

Sketch it out on your wood and then cut it out with a scroll saw.

Put the hole in 1 3/4" in and 13/4" up so that they can fold away.

Screw the stop in to the studs.
Attach the arms with a washer on each end.

Try it out.
