Comedian Rhod Gilbert chooses an Asgard Twin Bike Shelter
It’s not just professional athletes who contact us for help and advice on their bike storage needs! Comedian Rhod Gilbert approached Asgard for a small bike shelter suitable for his London flat. With limited space available and only needing to store his own bike, Rhod opted for the Twin Bike Locker - a galvanised steel bike shelter to store up to 2 bikes. The bike shelter gave him the protection and security needed to store his bike outside of his house.
Eager to meet Rhod, the Asgard shed installation team lept to install this comedy legends bike locker in London.
“It was a delight to meet Rhod and build and secure his bikes at his London home. It was a bit of a challenge with an unsteady ground, we had to do a bit of adjustment with a hammer and a saw but it will give Rhod’s bikes many years of protection from the weather”. - Danny, Asgard shed installation team.

Why did Rhod choose a Twin Bike Shelter?
Rhod needed a compact bike shelter to protect his bike from theft and weather. With just 1 bike to protect and space at a premium, Rhod opted for the Twin bike locker measuring just 900mm wide x 1900mm deep. Often used as bike storage for a small garden, its just as good in a big garden tucked away in the corner.
The Twin Bike Shelter is made out of galvanised steel and features a ventilation system to minimise shed condensation, with additional hooks he can also safely store his cycling equipment and his bike within the bike locker.
