ABSTRACT:
A wall-mountable storage rack for a bicycle or the like that can be collapsed into a folded-down compact state. The rack consists of three hingedly-connected portions, i.e., a shelf portion, a wall mount portion and a brace portion. Hinges respectively connect the wall mount portion to the shelf portion, and the brace portion to the shelf portion. The rack is adapted to support a bicycle horizontally by its top tube on a cradle formed as an extension of the shelf portion so that the bicycle wheels are held off the ground and free to rotate. With the bicycle so supported, minor maintenance may be performed on it with the rack thereby serving a secondary function as a maintenance stand.
