I have four bikes and a kayak. Our family loves doing outdoor stuff, but you need the space to store the gear.

My husband believes there is even more room when you alternate hanging your bikes front wheel to back wheel. I would imagine it would be a little trickier if all of the bikes were full size, but it may state more details on the manufacturer website as different systems are designed for a different number of bikes to store.<br /><br />xoxo!IHeart Organizinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05084013302005288836noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8864666002840991252.post-49886571548059413252014-08-06T15:34:44.354-05:002014-08-06T15:34:44.354-05:00This looks so great!!

One thing we did which might help you protect that white wall - we used about a 12" piece of PVC pipe cut in half the long way and screwed that to the wall so that the rear tire has a more durable place to land.

I like how low you have the bikes, my Aunt and Uncle have something similar but theirs hang all the way up by their ceiling and it seems like they never get to use their bikes because they are so challenging to get down.
