it's all about the hooks. I bought a Harbor Freight rod bender many moons ago for the very purpose of bending hooks to hang stuff.

Amazing deals on this Compact Bender at Harbor Freight. Quality tools & low prices.

they were about half that price when I got mine but it did not come with the stand. it helps be in a building with metal beams with holes in them.

I just hung these 3. I got hooks all over the place but it is a pain to get up there. the bikes are at floor level.

Nice display! If I look close, I can see the little brackets the tires are sitting on. What holds the bikes upright? Also, what keeps them from rolling fore/aft?

I'm guessing they were hung upside down by the wheels when they were up high? I have no building with metal beams, but I could get a bunch of holes the way @sambo42xa did. Are the tires up tight against the wall, and do you have to keep them full to prevent damage? I see they are hanging next to the air compressor...

I don't hang complete vintage bikes from the ceiling anymore. bikes are too awkward and heavy to lift. I had frames and wheels and things up there recently.
the bikes on the wall have only been there a week. the hooks are like 8" out from the wall. there is not much of a load on the tires. I like air in my tires, so unless it is hidden from view, I try to keep them full.
all the hoses and things are 40 feet away from the compressor. I didn't think about the tires when I put the bikes there.

They’re held up by a 3 piece kit. The main item is an angled bracket with a notch that holds the left pedal. The other two brackets protect the wall from the tires and help hold the bike too.

Good thing that they only have earthquakes in California.

Bolted a street sign post to the studs and used a bunch of parktool hooks.
