Why This Product is so Good
The Conservation Rack is a stylish rack that complements traditional architectural styles. It is therefore ideal for sites where the looks of the rack are as important as its functionality, for example in city centres, outside listed building and in areas of natural beauty.
In addition to its good looks, the rack also holds the bike well. The top of the rack is between the saddle and front stem which keeps the bike stable. Mountain bikes and smaller children’s bikes in particular benefit from the additional locking points.
The user is encouraged to lock the bicycle frame and front wheel to the rack.
This cycle rack can be used to help demonstrate compliance with BREEAM and achieve a high BREEAM rating.*
This cycle rack can be used to help contribute towards gaining your 2 ENE8 Cycle Storage Credits when used in an appropriate situation, under the Code for Sustainable Homes.

Materials, Locking Mechanisms & Accessories
Material Options
Galvanised and powder coated finish – an excellent long-lasting finish that is less damaging to the bike’s paintwork. Powder coating is available in most RAL colours.
Galvanised mild steel – an ‘industrial’ looking, but effective protection for 10-15 years.
304 Stainless steel – a non-rusting material that suits modern surroundings. ‘Marine Grade’ 316 stainless steel is also available.
Locking Options
The security bar allows the cyclist to lock the bike frame and wheels with their own chain or D-lock.
Security
The Conservation Rack provides many locking points for a bike.
However, the racks are only as good as the user’s lock. The bikes are visible to potential thieves and vandals, and they are open to the elements (unless under a shelter). Accessories, wheels and saddles can be stolen from them.
Please see our product range for more long-term secure bicycle parking.
Damage to Bikes
Like all similar racks, the bike just rests against the rack and the opposite bike. We recommend powder coating as this offers some protection for the bike’s paintwork.
