ABSTRACT:
Upstanding, vertical side rails welded to oppositely facing horizontal top and bottom plates at respective corners thereof form a unitary, rigid, parallelepiped open frame structure including an open front slot to receive a bicycle wheel rim and tire. Deflectable resilient members mounted to side rails extend towards each other and snap behind an inserted bicycle wheel rim. Horizontal side rails or plates and rear plates are fixed to respective pairs of side rails to render the structure rigid. Apertures in the bottom and top plates permit fixedly mounting of the module or a plurality of upright modules to form a multi-module bicycle rack. A transverse common coupling member may be a bench, a planar seat, a table top or a planter. A steel security arm having a U-shaped steel loop welded at one end may be rotatably mounted to the open frame structure at the opposite end.
