quick and easy question regarding the bike

i have mine hanging by two hooks upside down, one i guess would be alright. i dont like mine leaning against the wall i dont want to take a chance of it getting knocked over.

My bike is hanging from the ceiling from two hooks with no problems.

one hook is fine.

My bike leans against the wall of the family room....she is pretty......she would not like hooks.

My wife and I have 3 bikes (all of them pretty) and they all hang by 2 hooks. I have often used the one hook system for other bikes in the past with no ill effects.

Aquagirl, I'd leave our girls in the living room, too... but then there'd be no room for the dog or the sofa or walking...lol

I'd say it depends on the bike.
Mountain bikes with suspensions sometimes don't like being upside down.
I noticed some slight oil seapage from my fork when I left it upside down for an extended period.

A road bike doesn't have those components usually, so shouldn't be an issue.

I keep my road bike right where it belongs, in my dining area...
and the mtn bike sleeps in the garage, right side up...

My LBS hangs dozens of bikes by the front wheel only-no proble at all. HOWEVER, make sure the hook is rubber/vinyl coated so you don't scratch anything.

man i remember the single days when my bikes were just about the only decor in my house........then.........i got married. now there in the garage..sniff.sniff

yes, sometimes it's nice to still be single...
I can have car parts sit on my kitchen table for days too...

But mostly, you are probably better off than before, right? (well hopefully...)

great advice everyone.  thanks for all your help!
