purchasing bike racks

I'm considering purchasing a bike rack for the institution I manage.

However, despite the flurry of bike-related information coming from Detroit on the web, I can't find what I need - a bike rack vendor in Detroit.

Any references? I want to keep my cost under $300.00. Just something simple. I would like a vendor located in the city. We will have to do the installation ourselves.

Paging Django.

Django would be a good choice.

Or call these guys:

Check out KbKav's cool shop on the Riverwalk at the foot of Rivard...what she doesn't have in stock, she can usually order...as far as I know.


But they deserve first dibs...excellent people...great service...and they couldn't be MORE Detroit-centric.

OH...wait a minute, I was thinking racks for CARS to transport bikes...


...damn caffeine hasn't hit yet.



I'll text Django now and wake his ass up.

I saw the coolest bike racks in Fort Collins, CO earlier this year. The New Belgium Brewery that is based there [[they brew Fat Tire Beer) and had them made up to fit into an angled parking space. They are free-standing and moved out of the parking space in the winter to allow snow removal. I took several photos because I thought they were so practical and cool. I'll try to find the photos for you - later.

Maybe you could get the plans from NBB and have them fabbed up here in Detroit as I think they would be way too impractical to ship. You should send them an e-mail.

Well look what a Google search will turn up:

Caffeine??????????????

Here's one somewhere downtown Montreal;

Check you PM's.

I caught up with Django finally, his computer is on the fritz.

Sounds like he is interested, but I only got a short text.


He's got all his welder's stuff at the ready...

I like that Montreal one. It's sort of cheeky.
