Embodiments of the present invention include an equipment rack for a vehicle, such as a vertical, tire-mount bicycle rack, that is specially adapted for heavier bicycles like e-bicycles, that is significantly more robust than prior vertical bicycle racks by using a high-powered actuator coupled with a base structure that optimizes both leverage and stability through a wide, cradling hinge plate and post member pivot axis that is located aft of the post member when the post member is in a generally vertical position.

Systems, devices, and methods, of securing and transporting cargo and items using a vehicle including modular carrier racks and various engagement components and features.

A bicycle workstation that is removably suspended in a doorway when in use includes several elongate members that collectively provide at least three contact surfaces, and an additional elongate member that, in the illustrative embodiment, couples to a clamp suitable for clamping to a part of a bicycle. The contact surfaces are arranged such that the weight of the bicycle forces them against a wall, door frame, and moulding on both sides of the doorway, thereby securely suspending the bicycle workstation, and the bicycle clamped to it.

A bicycle wheel positioning device includes a case and two positioning units. The two positioning units are respectively installed to the case and each include a roller unit and at least one spring. When the two roller units are applied by a force, the two roller units are pushed away from each other. When the force is removed, the roller units move back and toward each other by the at least one spring in each roller unit.

A lift and storage device comprising, a base, a support structure secured to and emanating up from the base, a travelling assembly operationally associated with the support structure, a drive assembly operationally associated with the support structure and the travelling assembly, a support arm secured to and operationally associated with the travelling assembly, and engaged with a support tray comprising, a horizontal support member secured to the support arm, a front tire support assembly secured to the horizontal support member, a rear tire support assembly secured to the horizontal support member, the rear tire support assembly comprising a pair of adjustment rails secured to the horizontal support member, a pair of slide rails secured to the pair of adjustment rails and a pair of support rails slidably engaged with the pair of slide rails and a clamping assembly operationally associated with pair of support rails.

A bicycle storage unit has a support base with parallel, horizontal first and second base frame bars spaced apart from each other; and vertical, parallel support posts extending perpendicularly from the base bottom frame bars, for suspending bicycles in a double row along the length of the unit. Adjacent support posts in a first and second set of support posts are spaced apart on the first and second side, respectively, to allow at least part of a bicycle to be passed therebetween for suspending from one of the support posts in the second and first set, respectively. One of the first set of support posts is positioned on the first base frame bar at a first post location that is across the space between the first side and the second side from a second post location on the second base frame bar between adjacent support posts in the second set.
