Who’d have checked out a saddle and handlebars and gone “hey that appears just like a skull and horns”? Well, lets make a trophy bike rack out of it. The Longhorn car bike rack is simply ingenious, since it combines sheer creativeness with functionality.
Made to seem like an abstraction of the wall-mounted animal trophy, the Longhorn is hands-crafted in Portland, Or, using Evergreen Wood, a leather bicycle seat, and bull style road handlebars. The paintings isn’t just great looking, however it works as a functional bicycle rack too! Outfitted to carry any standard-sized bicycle (evaluating to 65lbs), the Longhorn suspends itself using 3.5? screws to create unquestionable stability regardless of what wall material you hang it on. No bicycles were injured in the building of this rack… I suppose.
Cyclists who reside in small spaces be aware of conundrum: You would like your bike readily available but hate tripping regarding this constantly. After working greater than 30 hrs researching a large number of indoor bike-storage stands, we put together and tested the ten most viable options, departing our bikes in their whim for several days-and often days-on finish. Ultimately, we made the decision that for most of us, the trophy bike rack is the easiest method to store your bike inside. The stand takes minimal effort and expertise to set up, it’s lightweight and powerful, and may accommodate a couple of bikes associated with a variety-mountain, road, hybrid, as well as step-through cruisers.
The trophy bike rack was simpler to put together than the rest of the options we tested, requiring merely a Phillips screwdriver along with a drill. It is also low-impact, requiring a great total of 1 screw to connect it towards the wall-and even though the directions highly recommend attaching the are in position to the wall, lots of people we spoke to didn’t bother whatsoever rather than had any problems (mind your earthquakes!). Plus, its ladder like frame consists of slender but tough steel tubing that keeps the stand from dominating your interior-decorating plan.
