Cycloc Solo

On the prowl for a smart yet elegant solution to storing your bike indoors? Look no further than the Cycloc Solo. At first glance, it looks like a mere plaything that’s too flimsy to be able to prop up an entire bike.

The Cyclo Solo is a horizontal or vertical bike storage ideal for home, office, or even retail display. The thing boasts three-point wall fixing and there’s an insert panel that hides fixings. You can hang any bike on it, too. There’s an included spacer to accommodate wide bars. You can also rotate it to accommodate various frame angles. There are rubber contact points to keep scratches at bay, and there’s an inbuilt facility to keep the bike locked in place.

Get it in a range of seven vibrant colors, whatever catches your aesthetic drift. And not only does it let you hang your bike, it’s also got a designated space for accessories.

The best-designed products are of course the simple ones. Although here at Men’s Gear we appreciate when artists push the envelope and go to town when it comes to experimentation, we’re suckers for well-built, simple solutions to complex problems.

The Cycloc Solo is one such product, doing away with the bells and whistles to give us a clever, bare-bones, straightforward answer to all our biking storage problems. Cycloc’s simplicity is its strongest merit, and the company has won numerous awards for its products that strike the perfect balance between form and function. If you’re having trouble storing your bike at home, this is a must-have.

Alpen Bike Capsule

Not only are bicycles a neat and eco-friendly way to get around, cycling also gives us a good cardio workout. However, there are ever-present hazards that can be cause for worry every cyclist and unpredictable weather is certainly one of them. To keep our ride safe, we often opt to bring it with us inside. It’s a practical solution to keep it from being stolen, or even worse, exposed to the elements—yet it does take up some of our living space.

We all know that rain, dust, and the harsh rays of the sun can shorten the lifespan of any bicycle. Unless you’re fine with having your ride as a roomie, you might want to shell out $899 for the Alpen Bike Capsule. It’s a stylish and modern storage solution that’s akin to an exclusive shed for your two-wheeler.

The shell is engineered from roto-molded polyethylene and features a built-in locking mechanism for added security. Furthermore, it can be bolted down to keep it firmly in place and is robust enough to withstand any attempt to break it open. Moreover, the waterproof and UV-resistant pod is designed for both indoor and outdoor installations.
