The Cyclock modern wall bike rack was designed by Andrew Lang in the UK. This super functional modern wall bike rack was the winner of the Consumer Product Design of the Year award. The timeless bicycle wall storage device par excellence. The CYCLOC wall bike rack is both incredibly practical and pleasing for the eye.

The simple solution to bike storage. Mount the CYCLOC on the wall for vertical or horizontal bike storage. The special shape of this wall-mountable bicycle storage rack guides the bike frame securely into place. The CYCLOC wall bike rack can accommodate a wide range of frame shapes. CYCLOC can be oriented for the bike to hang either vertically or horizontally. Without questions, one of the most advanced and functional racks for bicycles. Bike storage has never been prettier and you will love the space savings.

A bike can be kept safe in public spaces simply by using a regular bike lock. Accessories can be stored conveniently inside the CYCLOC. Soft contact pads provide frame protection.

The CYCLOC wall bike rack includes all the parts needed for wall installation with exception of screws. Customer needs to purchase screws; the type of screws needed will depend on the type of wall you will be using. Easy solution: purchase them locally at your hardware store.

However if I did I would get one which would only see the light of day on a rare weekend off and drive up the coast… and this would be the sort of 4 wheels I would go for… A classic SL Mercedes, this beauty pulled up earlier this week, in mint condition looking as good now as it did in back in it’s day.

Without realising it I ended up staying for a few hours, taking in the store while sipping very good coffee, watching the Tour on the plasma and chatting to the super friendly and knowledgeable Rapha crew & guests.

It is almost a shame that it’s not here for ever, but also in a way good that it’s not, it keeps us in suspense of whats next for Rapha.
