Hi, I was wondering if anyone had any opinions about hanging your bike from the front tire. Is it
bad good, doesn't matter? Thanks.

If you hook it through the front tyre it will burst the inner tube.

I've been hanging two of mine from a hook that goes around the rim with no apparent problems.

Hey Stephen, is there an easy way to search down threads?

My concern would be for bikes with shocks and the potential damage it may cause them

Yeah.....*I'm" the originator of that thread I would like the proper credit for starting it.....LOL
Just kidding.
I decided myself to use 2 hooks and store the bike horizontally. Why risk damage.

Not "easy" probably, but use google's advanced group search and you will find whatever you are
looking for (if it's there)

Yes, on paper that's exactly what my thoughts were.
If I'm storing with 2 hooks or the 1 hook - 1 wheel method, the bike still is stored. So why not use
2....they're already paid for. And save the 1 hook method to try on the Huffy's.

The bike shop I work at has hundreds of bikes stored hanging by one wheel. This includes Huffys
all the way up to $7000+ full Record equipped Colnagos and Calfees. Not to mention all of the
staff bikes.
One hook won't hurt the bike. <G>

Well, the only problem I've had is a bit of oil leakage from a shock fork after hanging the bike
tail-up for a few months. Annoying; but not particularly damaging.

POS forks will do that.

Marzocchi actually recommends that their forks be inverted at times to allow the oil to wash over
the seals. They've published this in the manuals for both Bombers I own.
