Abstract: A bicycle storage assembly includes a vertically oriented track. A carriage is movable on the track from a loading position to a storage position, the storage position being elevated above the loading position. The carriage holds a tire and wheel assembly of the bicycle above the other in a storage, elevated position. In a first aspect the carriage comprising a pair of clamping members being devoid of any element that extends over an inside circumferential surface of a rim of the front or rear tire and wheel assembly in the storage position. A second aspect has nested enclosures to reduce storage space. A third aspect includes a movable member coupled to the carriage. The movable member inhibits removal of the bicycle in the storage position.

Abstract: A storage device includes a support assembly that partially rotates relative to a base assembly from a closed, storage position to an open, loading position, and vice versa. When the storage device is in the open, loading position, an object, such as a bicycle, can be inserted therein by way of an access opening. Rotation of the support assembly positions the object in at least an inclined position which inhibits theft of the object.
