|
Mounts to any wall to store bicycles and many other items. The Allen 201 Wall Mounted 2-Bike Storage Rack is ideal for residential bike storage. It comes fully assembled, and features a streamlined design that takes only one screw to install. The rack mounts on the wall, and folds up and out of the way when not in use to diminish its obtrusiveness even further. The rack has a corrosion-resistant zinc-plated construction, and can also double-function as a repair stand. Manufacturer's Warranty Limited lifetime warranty About Allen Bike Racks In 1967, after a few years of working on the aerospace technology for the Apollo missions, Dick Allen was out of a job. Government cutbacks led Allen, a Harvard-trained physicist, to transform his garage hobby into a new industry. A cycling enthusiast, inventor, and family man, Allen had a personal need for a bike-carrying device. On weekends, he would take his sons and wife to Cape Cod or the White Mountains of New Hampshire. What proved difficult time and again was the transport of his family's bicycles. Rather than fight through inconvenience with twine and a dinged car, Allen sought an answer for himself as well as a market in which he foresaw major growth possibilities. Always a pathfinder, Allen took to work in his Lincoln, Massachusetts garage in search of a more efficient way to transport bikes. Drafting designs during the day and constructing them throughout the night, he put together a model made of electrical conduit, metal strapping, and fire hose casings (for padding). At first, the Allens' tested the prototype on weekend excursions. Finding the first trunk-mounted rack to be a success, Dick started Allen Bike Racks. Dealer acceptance came quickly, and by 1971 Allen Bike Racks were sold nationally through a number of major bicycle distributors. Today, the company owns over three dozen patents and offers a versatile product line of bike racks while Dick's son Alex now owns and operates the business. What started out as a small garage run operation now operates three warehouses nationally, two factories abroad, and has products sold in more than a dozen countries around the world. |

The World of Mountain Biking: Latest News and Events
Whether or not you are a mountain bike aficionado, there is something for everyone in this world of action, awesome riders, and over the top adrenalin.
For those of you unfamiliar with all things mountain biking, here's a brief history. If you really want to go back and get to the nitty gritty of biking, you have to take a look at the late 60's. It was then, in San Francisco, where two guys just got sick and tired of the hectic lives brought on in part by all the traffic in the city. Gary Fisher (a bike racer banned from the traditional sport of bike racing because his hair was too long) and his partner, Carles Kelly, teamed up and moved to Marin County so they could be closer to nature and and manage their lives in a more laid back environment. It was here they discovered the ultimate thrill of bombing down dirt trails on bikes. They also met Joe Breeze and the 'Clunkers' (also referred to as 'Bombers' or 'Cruisers'– old Schwinn 5 and 10-speed bikes that had been highly modified).
Fast Forward to the mid 70's, where Fisher, Kelly, Breeze, and another in the fold, Tom Ritchey, were responsible for both the organization and increasing of 3-mile long races that were held near Fairfax, California along the Cascade Fire Trail. All the riders would start at various intervals on the course with the hope of achieving just one thing: the chance to get their hands on a real 'Clunker' and “break the 2.9 mile dirt track record that had a vertical drop of over 1600 feet”. It was here that the Hell's Angels motto was adopted: “Ride to live and and live to ride”.
While participation and media notoriety increased over the years, due to the impossibility of properly insuring the event locally, 1984 saw its last race of this kind.
Today, Gary Fisher is just as passionate about mountain biking as he was the in the 60's. A self-confessed “bike-bum”, Fisher sold his successful bike-manufacturing company so he could get back to his first loves: racing, inspiring and, designing innovative products for cycling.
From the recreational to the competitive, there is something for everyone when it comes to mountain biking. For the hard-core riders (or just for pure entertainment), you can check out some of the popular movie out there about the sport. Titles include Virtuous, Seasons, Kranked 7, Unhinged, Fluid Ride: Like a Pro, just to name a few. For more titles check out www.ameibo.com
Still can't get enough? Look no further than Aaron Bartlett and Paul Roberts, filmmakers whose highly anticipated sequel to the very popular “Foot Out Flat Out”, “Foot Out Flat Out 2 - Fast and Loose” is set for release on DVD November 23, 2009. This film features down hill mountain bike racing at the highest level at the UCI World Cup and World Championships. The movie was shot on 3 different continents and offers viewers numerous rider sections (including Downhill and MotoX).
In the coming year, mountain bikers should look for the Alpine Bikes Winter Series. Borderline Events and Innerleithen has partnered with Alpine Bikes, Trek, and Fox Racing, to offer a new three-race downhill competition that will be held at Innerleithen in Scotland. The courses offered will be a mix of everything, plus old tracks will be updated and new sections will be built. Races will be held on January 30-31, February 20-21, and March 13-14, 2010.

What bike is better, a mountain bike or a folding bike?
I would like to know because I a going to buy a bike but I just don't know which one of those to pick. please help.
If you live in a city.... choose a folding bike, it ports well on the subway and in cars and in tight spaces. Mountain bikes is more Rugged of course good are great for uneven, rough terrain. I live in a city and have a mountain bike already (which I regret) so it's obvious which one I want.
