ABOUT CYCLE RACKS

Cycle racks are of two main types: general cycle racks for use at offices, factories, and schools; and on-street cycle racks. General cycle racks are normally made of galvanized or powder coated steel, and may have covered with an opaque or translucent roof.

On-street cycle racks are normally made from formed steel tube, which may be painted or stainless steel. These provide easy facilities for the user to lock their cycle to the cycle rack.
