Post by: animal on March 26, 2007, 10:13 PM: Try machine mart they do a good like in red plastic coated brackets that you can screw into the beams in the roof or raw plugs drilled into the wall ( home made type i.e. wood dowels hammered into hole as cannot buy raw plugs big enough) hope this helps .

Post by: digitaltransfer on March 26, 2007, 10:22 PM: Thats more like it sensible options !! where can I purchase them from have Wicks B&Q homebase size hooks ? or do I have to take a bike in with me !!! I was thinking 2 x brackets at different levels about 12" long to rest the frames on perhaps 2 x main tube or 1x main 1 x rear
