The Trophy Bicycle Holders are a perfect blend of style and functionality. By modeling themselves after animal trophy heads, it takes the common wall-mounted bike rack and turns it into something that can be displayed with pride, a piece of decor that elevates the rest of the home as well as the presence of a bike.
Designed by Outline Works, the Trophy Bicycle Holders may be inspired by the art of taxidermy, but no animals were harmed in the process of making them. That is because silhouette of the deer and bull heads have been created using solid steel wire. Coated with soft touch plastic to ensure the bikes aren't scratched up, the Trophy Bicycle Holders are easy to install and use.
