I don't know how many people have spotted the new bike hanger on the wall under the stairs.  Here's a photo of it...

There's been a bit of discussion between the various tenants in the building about whether the current bike rack means that bikes can stick out a bit far, making it trickier for people to get past, given that's the route to the lift for anyone in a wheelchair.

Danny from Peloton has some of these alternative hangers, which will keep the bikes more out of the way, but are a bit trickier to put your bike into (that said, my bike actually fits into that one, which it doesn't in the current ones)

Jason has (as you can see :-) put one up so people can try it out.  What does anyone think of it? 

Cheers,

Adrian.

I't a great idea, these usually work quite well. But - if you add more they need to be spaced carefully so that the bikes don't get entangled, and I find that these types of racks need quite a bit more muscle to lift bikes into and out off; and some people with bikes might struggle.
