Family Bike Rack: A Search for the Ultimate Rack

Last week I discussed the smallest bike rack, which is a great option for those that are on the go or live alone. There is no need to take up a ton of space when it is just you and your bicycle. However, this is not the situation for most of my readers. Today we head to the opposite end of the spectrum – we will look into the ultimate family bike rack!

When searching for the ultimate family bike rack, it is important to find a product that can accommodate all of your bicycles at once. I will assume that the average American family is about four people, so we will focus on bike racks that are able to accommodate up to four bicycles.

This pretty much limits us to just a couple of choices when searching for the ultimate family bike rack. It seems that most bike racks are designed to hold two bicycles at a time. If you find one that you absolutely love, then I would recommend getting a pair of two-bicycle racks. But this can waste valuable space in the garage or shed.

One great family bike rack is the Free Standing Four Bike Rack. This rack has a wide footprint that gives it excellent stability. The rack is made from steel with epoxy coating for a long-lasting quality. One other great benefit of this rack is that it is freestanding. This means it requires no additional mounting, which can be problematic when trying to store large items like bicycles.

Another great choice is the Garage Gator motorized storage system. This system is designed to store just about any item, from kayaks to bicycles. With a capacity of 220 pounds, that should be enough for all of your family’s bicycles.

Lastly, we have the Four Bicycle Hanger. This is a great choice for those that are tight on storage space, because it takes up zero floor space! However, you do need to mount it to a wall, so be sure to get it screwed into the studs.

There you have it – three family bike rack options that are perfect for any situation!
