A bicycle rack includes a bicycle support structure that may be positioned as desired on upper and lower pivot bars. The bicycle support structure includes a wheel hoop that allows the front wheel and handlebars of a suspended bicycle to be leaned. The bicycle support structure may be pivoted relative to the upper and lower pivot bars. The upper and lower pivot bars may include a plurality of mounting points at close spacing.

The invention was designed to provide a solid, level hang bar utilizing the bicycle's seat post, seat post tube or frame itself which is level adjustable on the bicycle. The rake or angle of the seat post and seat post tube varies and the Bicycle Leveler is adjustable to allow a safe and level carry on a vehicle. The Bicycle Leveler is installed on the bicycle for safe transport and the Level Hang Bar is uniquely removable without tools for safe riding of the bicycle. No other design mounts solidly to the bicycle nor does it have removable level bar feature. The design represents a new methodology for safety in bicycle transport on traditional hang racks.

The present invention relates to an assembly for storing bicycles in an upright orientation and suitably with both wheels of the bicycles off the ground. In addition, the present invention is adapted to suspend the bicycles from their front wheel by engaging the front tyre of the bicycles, and without needing to engage the rim of the front wheel, or the frame of the bicycle. Moreover, the assembly is adapted to allow the bicycles located in the upright orientation to be moved while on the assembly from side-to-side to allow bicycles storage to be clustered together and a bicycle to be retrieve from storage to be spaced further apart from adjacent bicycles.

A bicycle rack is described with a platform for supporting a bicycle and an arm for securing the bicycle to the platform. The arm rotates or pivots from a closed position adjacent to the platform, to an open position to allow the loading of a bicycle. The arm may also be pivoted past the horizontal to an over-center position and further past horizontal to a lowered position. The arm may be provided with a latch mechanism to limit the rotation of the arm in certain ranges of rotation. The arm may also be provided with an actuator to power the movement of the arm in certain ranges of rotation.
