You will have to bring your bike inside, which poses a new difficulty in and of itself. Getting your bike into your house or workplace has many challenges, the first of which is space. The second is décor; will it blend in or be inconveniently out of place? As a result, another element of bike storage options became available: internal cycle storage.
