Have you got pics? I’m currently using static hooks - does the ability to move/slide/overlap save an appreciable amount of space?

Not my best work but here are two quick pics. If you alternate the bikes you can get them pretty close together which is helpful for locking them up, plus I can slide two bikes to one side and then have plenty room to put up/take down a third bike.
I've got two motorbikes, three bicycles and a workbench across a standard 3m garage width with room to stand at the bench (you can just see the pillar drill on the right side), plus spare wheels above the motorbikes. There's a lot in there but its not tidy!

I did the rollercentre option a while back, been meaning to get a good pic for ages. I bought hooks from those guys, although I bought the Lite hooks at £10 each . Still not cheap but definitely the cheapest option I could find (both for DIY carriages&hooks and ready-combined options).
I bought the strut from a local electrical wholesaler (TLC) who did delivery. 3m of 41x41 plus brackets and stops etc came in about £40 including delivery. I bought ten hooks (a few bikes +a few sets of wheels + a few spares...) so total cost about £140, and fits nicely across the back wall of the garage. Very pleased with it and just need to decide where to fit the chain mounts.
