  1. My landlord has asked me about putting up a bike storage rack in a basement
    hallway for about 6 - 8 bikes. The hallways is not wide, so the bikes will
    have to be hung by front wheel, and lined up next to each other standing on
    their rear wheels, sort of like in a very small bike shop. Is there a
    ready-made rack system that can hoist 6-8 bikes this way, or maybe one bike
    and I can just buy 8? I can probably build one with hooks and 2x4s, but the
    landlord wants a store bought rack(s) and not have to drill into the cement
    wall. TIA.

    There's tons. This is only the densest solution offered by the first
    plausible google result:

  3. Here's a good, inexpensive solution. And it's scalable. You can just
    bolt as many of these as you want to a dropped down 2X4 or cross beam.

    Thanks, but it requires drilling into the cement wall.

    So drill into the wall. Anything is going to require some drilling.
