Bike Parking Consulting Services
We know bike parking. Inside and Out.
We are more than avid walkers, commuters, transit riders and gear heads at the Street Collective. It is our mission to champion active transportation options that are accessible, safe and enjoyable for everyone.
​
Bike parking and bike amenities are fast becoming a necessary amenity for modern businesses that prioritize accessibility, sustainability, and community benefit. It’s good for your tenants or customers, your bottom line, and the neighborhood! The Street Collective's team of qualified bike parking consultants can help you find the right fit for your needs.
Our specialists will help you navigate Des Moines’s bike parking standards and permits, recommend quality bike racks that best meet your needs, and offer free site-visits to make sure it’s done right. Space limitations, user demands, surface types, security needs, aesthetics, and budgets all play a factor in selecting the right bike parking. Let us make it easy.

Hoop Rack
The Hoop Rack is a proven design that provides high security and easy bike parking. The Hoop Rack uses thick pipe construction and the full radius of the bend makes the Hoop an attractive and functional bike rack. This bike rack can also be put on rails for mobility and is popular in bike corrals.

Custom Bike Racks
Full custom racks are bike racks that are designed without incorporating any of our standard products. We start from a blank canvas to let your imagination roam free. Got an idea for a great bike rack? Send us a rough sketch on a napkin, a logo, or just an idea – and we will work with you to turn your concept into a fully functional piece of street art. The designs services are on us.
Bike Locker
The Dero Double Bike Locker is bike security at its best. At a mere 38” wide, it is a perfect choice for long-term bicycle parking when you’re short on space, accommodating two bikes per unit. Municipalities, governments, and universities will love the sturdy steel construction, multiple locking options, door closer, and optional gear hook.
Locker side panels and door are hot dip galvanized and can be finished with a selection of powder coat colors. Installation is simple, with leveling feet for uneven surfaces. The locker ships flat to save on freight.
Fixit Service Station
The Fixit includes all the tools necessary to perform basic bike repairs and maintenance, from changing a flat to adjusting brakes and derailleurs. The tools are securely attached to the stand with stainless steel cables and tamper-proof fasteners. Hanging the bike from the hanger arms allows the pedals and wheels to spin freely while making adjustments.
Add your choice of an Air Kit bike pump (sold separately) to keep your cyclists' tires topped up and ready to roll.
