Had the pleasure of trying to put my bike in it the other weekend.. god damned thing!! the ceilings about 6ft tall...... Im 6 foot 2 inches!! squished head!!! there is a fine art to getting it in the tin shed though.. I just wheeled it back and fore on the spot until it didnt touch any of the sides when on the stand!! and it takes a gentle touch on the clutch getting it over the bump.. one wrong move.. and you'll have a new door the other side! ;) that wont close so easily!

aaahhaaaa I have a cunning plan to rid that probemo.
I'm thinking something on the lines of the "Secure-a-bike" Wheel in n out.

The Bike Safe (Tin shed) arrived today.
It's bloody huge!

I have to put it on a level concrete ground - I'm buggered if I can find one in our garden :roll:
I'll have to make one then :wink:

Looks the bollox though, and the padlocks are awesome!

And the delivery bloke said to me that they have made several chnages to the design, thickened the metal in some places, and other bits as well.

Their gaurantee is that in the 5 years or so, there has only 1 bike been nicked from inside one of their sheds - pretty impressive.
They managed to cut through the shed with bolt cutters, and when they finally insepcted the shed, they concluded that the theives must have been hammering away at the shed for over 2 hours :shock: as they made a mess trying to get in.

They have now strengthened that bit of the shed :thumbsup:

But apart from that, it looks the part!
It's a bit bigger than what I expected I must admit :?

Pics on the way - when I manage to get the time to do it.
