I've very luckily been given a 2-bike Asgard front-loading storage shed. It will just about fit it the front 'yard' of our terraced house but thinking it would be a good idea to dig out plants/weeds etc, take up the flagstones, and have some concrete(?) laid in order to install it properly at so it is level. Also to maybe lower the ground level by any amount possible to reduce the impact of the shed blocking light through our living room window.
Literally no idea where to start looking for someone to do something like this. Any suggestions? Manchester based if that helps

never shown my setup I think !
based on sliding door track, 1 bike = 1 roller + park tool 450 (470 for my 27.5+ bike).
Actually up to 6, I think 8 can be ok if I use all the space.

My step family lives here, love it ! cliff, islands are so nice. Not the best place for MTB but in SS it's very pleasant to enjoy the views!

I want to make a frame to hold my bikes in the car park- two A frames with a cross bar that the saddle hooks over, out of scaffold.
Anything to be aware of or is this as simple as it looks in my head?

Yep it’s that simple, I’d put another bar across the back at floor level to stop the legs moving. If it’s in a public space I’d be inclined to use handrail clamps rather than scaffolding ones. They look neater, don’t have bits that stick out and are harder to take apart (steal or sabotage) You can also get some nice extras to add on.
This sort of thing https://www.pipeworksuppliers.co.uk/collections/galvanised-handrail

Thanks- the handrail advice is useful. Now, where can I get that stuff in SG is the question

The Feedback Sports event stand is very decent.

I did look at that but getting one is hard.

Found one in Australia

I got the support bar because mountain bikes.
I’m going to be locking to the bar - suggestions for suitable locks welcomed. Singapore mainly requires locks that prevent people walking off with your bike- they can be very poor from an actual security aspect it appears.

I’m thinking of getting bike storage for the small front “garden” of my terraced house. Unfortunately it’s too small, and the wall too low, for something like the small Asgard
Any suggestions for other options? Ideally looking for something c.2m wide, no more than 70cm deep, and no more than 1.2m high (at the eaves). I just want something to keep the bikes sheltered from the rain, and hidden from street view.
I’ve found this BillyOh but the online reviews are mixed, at best, and it’s also probably too deep.
Picture of garden below. The tape measure is set at 70cm. My idea is to move the bins to closer to the path (alongside the front/pavement wall), and to have the storage either where the bins are currently, or perpendicular to them (i.e. running parallel to the front wall).
Any placement suggestions or other bright ideas welcome!

Not sure if the space is big enough but Brighton Bike Shed can bespoke build around the bay window. Rather spendy option though!

I want to know more about that chair

Anyone interested in a wall mount based on the huxlo type ones? It’s made to custom dimensions, would fit a bike with handlebars less than 760mm total width, with a top tube resting area no shorter than 440mm
specific I know… but thought I’d see as it’s taking up space unused.
