Congratulations on your choice of the Bike Nook™ bicycle stand, the brilliant
new way to store your bike away, quickly and easily.
The Bike Nook™ bicycle stand is as easy as 1-2-3 and saves up to 3.5 feet
(1 meter) of valuable floor space. The best part is that it easily adjusts to
accommodate all kinds of bikes, including mountain bikes, road bikes, racers,
beach bikes and kids' bikes, wheel size 10in/25cm and up, and fat tires*.
Please use these easy to follow instructions for tips on how to set up your Bike
Nook™ and use it for different sizes of bikes.
We hope you enjoy the quick and easy new way to store your bicycle, and all of
the free space you get back!
Thane Direct and its affiliated companies assume no liability for personal injury
or property damage resulting from the misuse of the Bike Nook™ bicycle stand
including the failure to comply with the instructions contained in this User’s Guide.
*NOTE: The regular Bike Nook™ unit can accommodate fat tires up to 3.9in/10cm
wide. Bikes with even wider fat tires, up to 5in/13cm, will need the Bike Nook™ Pro
Kit for proper support.

Track so that the holes in the Diamond
Bracket are aligned with the holes in the
Track and the holes in the L-Bracket
Place a Bolt from the underside of the L
Piece through the corresponding holes in
the L-Piece, Track and Diamond Bracket,
so that the bolt end protrudes through
the Diamond Bracket. Place a Washer
and Nut on the protruding section of the
Bolt and tighten using the Allen Key and
Socket Wrench. Repeat for second hole.

Setting the height of the V-Slot
Important: To store your bicycle compactly
and securely, the V-Slot must be set at a
height above the Track that matches the
size of your bicycle.
Tip: A rough guide to setting the height of the
V-Slot is to measure the distance between your
bicycle seat tube and the back of the wheel
(measured across the back-wheel axle (see
illustration below). Use this distance as the
approximate height to position the V-Slot above
the Track. Notice through which hole in the
Upright the Adjustment Knob should be placed
to ensure that the V-Slot is set at this height.
Then select the hole in the Upright that is just below
that one to place the Adjustment Knob through.
Secure the Adjustment Upright to the Upright by
tightening the Adjustment Knob.
Horizontal Storage
Position the back wheel of the bicycle against the
Ramp, facing the Bike Nook™ Pro (see Fig.1).
Roll the back wheel of the bicycle over the Ramp onto
the Track until the wheel engages with
the Upright (see Fig. 2) below.
Vertical Storage
Lift the front of the bicycle upwards and rotate it slowly
to a vertical position, and slightly beyond (see Fig.3),
until the seat post can be lowered to rest into the
V-Slot, with the back wheel engaged with the Upright
(see Fig. 4).

Check that the bicycle is stable and securely positioned. If not, return the bicycle
to the horizontal position and adjust the height of the V-Slot (lowering or raising
it) above the floor.
Important: For stability, check that the V-Slot is at a height so that the weight
distribution of the bicycle is backwards – in the direction of the Upright, not
forwards towards the Track.
Use the Strap to secure the front wheel to the frame of the bicycle (see Fig. 4).
Storing Kids’ Bicycles
For kids' bikes with wheel size 10in/25cm to
16in/41cm, place the back wheel into the Track
and place the handle pillar into the V-Slot. (see
Fig. 5). Depending on the size of the bicycle,
the height of the V-Slot may have to be adjusted
to ensure that the bicycle is securely stored.

Bike Nook™ Pro Kit Upgrade (Optional)
Assembly & Use Instructions
The Bike Nook™ Pro Kit is an attachment that connects to the Upright of the
Bike Nook™ Pro to accommodate and store bicycles fitted with back racks
and/or fenders (mud guards). For these bicycles it may be difficult to engage
the back wheel of the bicycle with the Upright. By installing the Pro Kit, bicycles
with fenders or mudguards can now be stored with added stability.
The Bike Nook™ Pro Kit also accommodates fat tire bikes that cannot be
secured with the regular Bike Nook™ unit. The track of the regular Bike Nook™
unit can accommodate fat tires up to 3.9in/10cm wide. For bikes with even
wider fat tires, up to 5in/13cm, it is recommended to install the Bike Nook™
Pro Kit for proper support.

Step 2
Assemble the Adjustment Arms & Connector Plate
Overlap the holes in the Adjustment Arms – one in front of the other, with the
Support Bars facing in the same direction and away from you (see Fig 2).

Place the Connector Plate behind the overlapping Adjustment Arms - and on
the same side of the Adjustment Arms where the Support Bars are connected.
Align the overlapping holes of the Adjustment Arms with one of the holes in
the Connector Plate.

Insert the Long Bolt through a Washer and the two holes in the Adjustment
Arms, and through the one (top) hole in the Connector Plate. Insert the Short
Bolt through the (bottom) hole in the connector plate.
Step 3
Attach the Connector Plate to the Upright
Attach the Connector Plate to the Upright by inserting the Long Bolt through
one of the holes in the Upright, for example, through the 6th hole from the
top of the Upright (see Fig. 3) or an alternative hole depending on the size of
your bicycle.

Step 4
Set the Adjustment Arms & Support Bars
To support the sides of the fender or rack of your bicycle when stored on the
Bike Nook™ Pro, the Adjustment Arms can be set with the Support Bars at
various distances apart - from narrow to wide (see Fig. 5 – 7).
If your bicycle is fitted with just a fender, measure the width of the fender. If it
is fitted with just a rack or a rack and a fender, measure the width accordingly.
With the Long Bolt only lightly tightened, set the Support Bars at the desired
distance apart by rotating the Adjustment Arms so that the distance between
the two Supporting Bars is slightly wider than the width of the fender or the rack.
Note: When rotating the Adjustment Arms, ensure that the Adjustment Arms
are set at the same angle and symmetrical to one another.
Once set to the desired width, measure the height of the Support Bars above
the Track. This should be approximately half the diameter of the wheel of your
bicycle. At this height, the Support Bars can effectively support the sides of
the fender or the rack when your bicycle is stored. If not, unscrew the Long
Bolt and the Short Bolt and reposition the Connector Plate to be lower or
higher on the Upright to achieve the desired height of the Support Bars.
Securely tighten and lock the Long Bolt to ensure that the Adjustment Arms
remain in the set position (see Fig. 7 above). Also tighten the Short Bolt.

Step 5
Attach the Sleeves onto the Track and/or Upright
The purpose of the Sleeves is to protect your bicycle fender and/or rack from
making direct contact with the Track and/or the Upright and getting damaged.
The positioning of the Sleeves depends on whether your bicycle is fitted with
just a fender, or just a rack, or with a rack and a fender. It also depends on the
size and position of the fender and the rack.
When storing your bicycle on the Bike Nook™ Pro, check if the fender and/or
rack contact the Track and/or the Upright. If so, slide 2 Sleeves over the Track
and/or 2 Sleeves over the Upright to prevent the fender and/or rack from
contacting the Track and/or Upright directly. Once positioned, stick the
self-adhesive Sleeves to the Track and/or the Upright.

Step 6
Store your Bicycle
Roll the back wheel of the bicycle over the Ramp onto the Track, guiding the
fender or rack between the protruding Support Bars until either the wheel (in
case of a short fender) or the fender (in case of a long fender), or the rack
engages with the Sleeves on the Upright (see Fig 9).
Lift the front of the bicycle upwards and rotate it slowly to a vertical position
and slightly beyond until the seat post can be lowered to rest into the V-Slot.
Check that the bicycle is stable and securely positioned.
Also check that the fender or the rack fits snug between the Support Bars and
engages with the Sleeves on the Upright. In case of a long fender, it may rest
on the Sleeves on the Track.
