ABSTRACT:
A lightweight, freestanding bicycle stand of sturdy construction composed of a plurality of substantially identical modular units. Each modular unit has at least one rectangular-shaped wheel receptacle and the units are releasably joined together by a common threaded tension member and associated threaded locking members. The modularity permits cost-effective manufacturing and has the added advantage of allowing users to customize modules to create a bicycle stand having a capacity for any number of bicycles desired. In addition, because the modular units are joined together by a common threaded tension member, upon loosening the locking members the modules may be rotated about the common axis defined by the tension member into a substantially flat configuration, thereby permitting easy stacking, transportation and storage.
