The Cycloc is an industrial-strength bucket-shape, optionally available in 100% recycled black (or red, white or green non-recycled, but black is always chic and recycled black doubly so) plastic, that lets you tidily hang up your bike without having huge ugly hooks on the wall. Assembly: drill some holes, bolt to the wall, cover the bolts with a nice little finishing panel, hang bike on it. The bike's own weight keeps it stable.
The Cycloc is structured so that you can thread a lock through it if, say, you're installing it in your office or an otherwise public space. It's won a half dozen design awards for being a simple and needful little device. £49.95 from Nigel's Eco Store. [GT]
