U-38 – a flat hoop with a soft rubber covering

Most hoops are made from round tube or square section, but U-38 is made from flat 80 × 8 mm steel bar. From the side it looks like a light graphic line, and from the front it offers a wide surface that is convenient to lean a bike frame against. The 8 mm rubber protects the paintwork and prevents direct metal contact with the frame.

Benefits

  • Wide support surface – the 80 mm bar holds a leaning bike steadily.
  • Rubber protection – an 8 mm layer protects the frame surface.
  • Light appearance – the slim bar does not clutter its surroundings.
  • Galvanised and powder coated – corrosion-resistant outdoors.

Buying tip

If you want the same flat-bar style without rubber, choose UP-1. When the rack is intended for many expensive bikes, it is also worth comparing the UG series hoops with thicker 30 mm rubber.

How do I choose a bike rack?

First decide how many bikes need to be parked and where the rack will stand – outdoors on paving or indoors against a wall. Then consider whether it is important to lock the bike frame: U-shaped hoops are best for this. Finally, choose the material and colour to suit the surroundings.

How many bike spaces do I need?

Calculate based on peak season, when there are the most bikes, and leave some spare capacity. Some racks are made with different numbers of spaces or are modular, so spaces can be added later. Double-sided racks allow bikes to be parked on both sides and save space.

How is a bike rack fixed?

Most racks are bolted into firm paving with anchors, and some models can be set in concrete. Wall-mounted holders are fixed to the wall with anchors. For many models, anchors are included – this is stated in the product's technical data.

Are there racks for wide tyres and e-bikes?

Yes. In this category you will find racks and wall-mounted holders designed for wider tyres and heavier bikes, as well as an e-bike station with a charging socket. The permitted tyre width or wheel gap for each model is stated in the product description. Compare it with your bike's tyres before buying.

Galvanised or stainless steel – which should I choose?

Hot-dip galvanised and powder-coated steel is corrosion-resistant and lets you choose a colour. Stainless steel is unpainted, keeps its shiny look for a long time and suits prestigious locations. Both options are suitable for year-round outdoor use.

How do I protect a bike from theft and scratches?

It is safest to lock the bike by the frame, not just the wheel – U-shaped hoops and similar racks are designed for this. Models with protective rubber keep the bike's paintwork free of scratches. Place the rack in a clearly visible and well-lit location.

When should I choose a wall-mounted bike holder?

Wall-mounted holders come in handy in bike rooms, garages and basements, where floor space is limited. A bike hung vertically takes up less space, and swivelling holders allow bikes to be placed closer together. Note the minimum room height stated in the description.
