and if the space were tight, possibly impossible, or highly-likely to see your arms/hands covered in filth from your rim. But hey - that's the thing - there's no perfect, catch-all solution here, just the one that works best for you. They didn't fail, you've chosen to assess it against criteria outside the original design's use case. Since 2012, we’ve made it our mission to make cycling safer, more accessible and more fun whether you’re 5 or 75. One very minor gripe is the provision of Phillips screws rather than Pozidriv, although this is perhaps intentional, to prevent over-torquing the screws when installing.

Combining innovation, style and safety, our award-winning bikes and cycling accessories have been created to stand up to the demands of real-world riding conditions.A video test of the force required to remove a 31PSI 28mm tyre from the roadie Clug - it came out at 6. for the MTB XL and Plus, the Clug Pro is quite expensive for such a small item, especially when compared to more basic bike storage options.

If you wanted multi-bike parking outside a cafe, a simple round post in the ground with a circle of Clugs around it would hold maybe a dozen bikes, easily – certainly much smaller in footprint and cheaper than the traditional racking options, with their inherent risk of damage to rims/disc rotors due to wide tolerances and tendency for bikes to flop about. The only niggle is I chain the bike up, the chain is heavy and the weight has pulled the road bike out of the clip once of twice. I have two of these set up in the kitchen of my (very small) flat - they're great bits of kit, and keep two bikes up really well. CLUG PRO is made from a durable ABS polymer, tested for 10,000 insertions and comes with a 2-year warranty as standard.It works incredibly well, with the magnet that feels like a ratchet in use being strong enough to hold fast (up to 30kg, according to Hornit, as I mentioned earlier), but very easy to pull open to release when you want to remove your bike. I don't really care about the form of the hooks, they're not aesthetic things, what I DO want is for me to be able to hook my lightweight, and BB30 bottom bracketed (allergic to wet weather) carbon bike, and leave it there over winter, and get my little boy's bike down/my steel touring bike and swap with my Ti commuter as required, and not be worried in the slightest that anything's going to fall down! As with any DIY, you should be aware of what you're drilling into, and depending on the size of bike and surface you could always opt for a more solid retaining mechanism such as spring toggles.

I'd say a Clug would make for a handy bike-washing solution, if you are in an apartment situation and need an inconspicuous, low-cost and relatively theft-proof way to hold your bike vertical while washing. CLUG (which is a cross between a clip and a hug for your bike), is compatible with tires between 23-81mm (1-3.It took me less than five minutes to fit; it's a very simple process, with the guide on the packaging helping to reduce the chances of making a mistake when drilling. And for any bike with tyres that might lose pressure over time, including latex tubes, or those being held in place for a long time without use, the cord and Fidlock will hold the wheel even if the tyre goes completely flat.
