I finished my childhood bike build and had to convince the wife that it belonged on the wall in our greatroom for the winter. (and any other time I'm not riding it) At first she seemed hesitant, but after thinking about it she said sure why the hell not. After all each frame is a piece of art IMO. So I built a mount out of oak and threw it up there. When she came home she said wow not sh!t, that looks great.

I have a lot of wall space muah hahaha...

Im working on it!!! Geesh! My plan this winter is to find a set and have my 474 pedals powdered. I want a set for sure!

Thanks all for the props on the display. It was simple and I had the crap in the storage shed so it was cheap enough.

nice rack

Looks great, nice rack and bike. My wife said ok to the family room which is almost done. I will have 5 or so hanging. She thinks my old bikes are cool too. Mine will be a mix of BMX and Road though (I share my love).

Great display for sure!

I have skis on the wall in my home office and wanted to put up the RL-20II, but it would just take up too much room since the walls are already all decorated.

My bikes are getting all dusty even just sitting in my very low traffic down stairs.

Looks good. Ive been trying to convince my wife for a few years that my ripper should be hung next to the pool table but still a no go!

BritUS · 2012-11-05 11:32am

Looks good - wifes OK with me hanging mine on the wall - just has to be up on the top floor...basically where no-one goes....

My wife keeps her bike in the kitchen most of the time. I have it hanging in the basement but she keeps mentioning that it needs to get out of there before it messes her wheels up! She will sit there for hours polishing her bike
