Our most popular two-tier bike rack. The BDS Two Tier Bike Rack with a gas-assisted strut is a pioneering and user-friendly cycle parking system which has an unbeatable advantage – it allows users to park two bikes in space for one. These cycle stands are compact, with a centre-to-centre distance of only 375mm.
Two-story bike racks are a product surging in popularity because of their great advantages – they save space, are great value for money and are incredibly accessible. This makes BDS Two Tier Bike Racks a great addition to any area of high population density, like stations, shopping centres, schools, car parks and offices.
These bicycle racks are designed to be functional and compact, but they are also, sleek and modern looking, making your bike storage area look as good as the rest of your designed spaces.
Our product can be used both in and outdoors, but for extra protection from the weather outdoors, we recommend the addition of a roof over the two-tier rack. You can look at our Two Tier Cycle Shelters range.

Two-story bike racks are a newer product surging in popularity because of their significant advantages – they save space, are great value for money and are incredibly accessible.
These gas-assisted double-tier racks are significantly easier to use than the manual double-stacked ones, as they don’t require strength to access the top track. They are an excellent value for any bike storage facility as they are compact, durable, and let you fit twice as many bikes in your bike parking space than a traditional bike stand or rack.
The Two Tier Bike Rack can accommodate all types of bicycles, such as mountain bikes and road bikes, which can be chained or D-locked onto the Two Tier Bike Rack for added security. The bicycle is well supported by wheel channels, and the back wheel is stabilised by a gutter to lock the bicycle firmly into place.
Yes, that is one of their best features. Due to the fact that this model of bicycle rack is gas-assisted, the user doesn’t need to worry about lifting the whole weight of the bike themselves. To access the bottom level, they simply need to roll the bike in and lock it. They need to pull the upper track out to use the top level, which then drops down if pushed down. The gas strut that’s built-in acts in a similar way to a car’s boot, making use very easy.
Our BDS Two-Tier cycle rack is a safe and secure way to store bikes. It offers great security as it has a 3-point locking for extra protection.
Measure the length of the area you want to fit the two-story cycle rack in. The length (mm) divided by 375mm = number of bikes that will fit on the bottom row. Multiply by 2 to get the total number of bike spaces, and subtract 2 bikes to allow for the handlebars to stick out. For example. 4000mm length divided by 375 = 10.666. Multiplied by 2 = 21.333. Round it down to 20 bikes.
To make this calculation easy, you can also use our area-base bike storage calculator.
The minimum height required is 2400mm x minimum depth of 1950mm. Plus, a recommended minimum entrance space of 1500mm. To be comfortable, we advise at least a 3500mm depth and a width of:
