The objective of this design
was to create a bike rack that
complements its environment
but is clear about its storage
use while providing a safe
place for bicyclists to park their
bikes. The Bike Bike Rack uses
thick tube construction, and the
full radius bend of the "wheels"
makes it almost impossible to
cut with a pipe cutter. The rack
allows the wheels and frame to
be secured using a u-style bike
lock.
Ideal for Sidewalk Placement
The Bike Bike Rack was
designed so that it could NOT
be misused. Two to four bikes
are easily locked to it by
placing the bikes parallel to the
rack,The Bike Bike Rack is
especially suited for sidewalk
placement because bikes have
to park parallel to the rack,
which keeps them from
encroaching into pedestrian
walkways.

"We have installed over 300 of the BikeBike racks
in Honolulu and we love them ... Even when there
are no bikes on the rack they provide a kind of
subliminal advertising for bicycling."

BIKE RACK COMPANY
BIKE BIKE RACK
The Bike Bike Rack is an eye-catching, functional
piece of street art that playfully reminds us that
we could be riding our bike today, and rewards those
that do with a secure, convenient place to park it.
The Bike Bike Rack forces bikes to lock up parallel
with the rack, helping to keep right of ways clear,
The rack allows for the wheels and frame of the bike
to be secured using a u-style bike lock.
The Bike Bike uses thick tube construction and the
full radius bend of the "wheels" makes it almost
impossible to cut with a pipe cutter.

Recommended Install Base Materials
Solid concrete is the best base material for installation,
Ask your Dero Rack representative which anchor is
appropriate for your application to ensure the proper
anchors are shipped with your rack, Be sure nothing is
underneath the base material that could be damaged by
drilling,
Installation
3/8" anchors are shipped with the rack, Place the rack in
the desired location. Use a marker or pencil to outline
the holes of the flange onto the base material. Drill the
holes in accordance with the specifications shipped with
the anchors. Make sure the holes are at least 6" away
from any cracks in the base material.
Tamper Resistant Fasteners
More so than standard racks, the Bike Bike Rack may
be a target for theft. Therefore we recommend using a
fastener that can't be removed by thieves. The concrete
spike is a permanent anchor. The top of the wedge
anchor can also be pounded sideways after installation
so that it cannot be removed, Other tamper resistant
fasteners can also be purchased.
When using the special tamper resistant nuts, always
set and first tighten the anchors using the standard nuts
included with the anchors, Once the rack is installed,
replace two nuts from the bracket (opposite sides from
each other) with the tamper rsistant fastener, DO NOT
OYER-TIGHTEN the tamper resistant nut,
If you have any questions about installation or other
features of the Bike Bike Rack, please call Derovations
at888-DERO-RAX (888-337-6729),
Tools Needed for Installation:

city? The possiblilities are endless. Contact Dero
