Abstract
A bicycle storage unit is disclosed. The unit includes a rotatable bicycle storage carousel that is structured to rotate about a central axis to provide for a dense storage of bicycles, which are stored on the rotatable bicycle storage carousel in a generally vertical orientation. The unit further includes an enclosure surrounding the carousel. The rotatable bicycle storage carousel comprises an elongated central core oriented in a first direction that is orthogonal relative to a plane defined by a base structure of the rotatable bicycle storage carousel. The elongated central core is rotatable relative to the base structure. The carousel further includes multiple bicycle storage assemblies on which bicycles can be hung.
