Steadyrack's Critique:
The Good Design Awards Jury praised Steadyrack Vertical Bike Storage Solutions, commenting:
“A clearly considered, ergonomic solution that solves a genuine problem. It is easy to access and use with a simple minimal design. The additional capability to turn the bike closer to the wall for smaller spaces is very clever. Simple construction, relatively easy to install and easy to roll the bike onto the rack without having to lift it. A great example of good design that makes our life just a little easier. Well done. ”
Dr. Brandon Gien, CEO of Good Design Australia said: “Receiving a Good Design Award is a significant achievement given the very high calibre and record number of entries received in 2020.”
