CHOOSING A BIKE RACK
MORE THAN METAL
A bike rack is much more than a bent piece of metal. Racks can serve a purpose beyond a place to park a bike; if chosen carefully, they can significantly benefit a project.
HIGH-SECURITY?
Cyclists heavily rely on U-locks to secure their property. U-locks should secure the bike frame, one tire, and the bike rack simultaneously. Bike racks that are not U-lock compatible may go unused.
Racks with hollow or round tubing are easily cut and should be avoided, choose square tubing, steel or solid materials.
RIDER-FRIENDLY?
Bicycle racks that are rider- friendly are easy to operate and access. A rack is not rider-friendly if handlebars are in constant conflict, spacing is difficult to navigate, or the rack damages the bicycle with bending or scraping. Accommodating all demographics, based on age, ability, or bicycle type, is another part of rider-friendly bicycle parking.
MORE VALUE?
Many businesses think custom, colorful racks will pull in more customers. These racks may look good, but if the purpose is to support cycling customers, they fall short. Customers value convenience over appearance, so choose functional and recognizable bike racks over fun shapes.
