DIAN Bike Rack

Design DESIGNIT A/S

Our DIAN bicycle rack is a very straightforward design with a large front-wheel holder that is almost a semicircle. The large curves give DIAN an expansive, airy look in urban spaces or beside building entrances. When the rack is supplied as a double-sided model, the curves reflect one another, creating an elegant complete circle.

DIAN has been created by design firm DESIGNIT, providing a bicycle rack with the emphasis on style and expression. It enhances its surroundings, with a focus on aesthetics, architecture and quality. It can be coated in any RAL colour, to more closely match with a particular design concept or style.

Designer bicycle rack with integral functionality and durability

Furthermore, DIAN provides the same high degree of functionality and durability as our other bicycle racks.

In terms of functionality, the wheel holders on DIAN open out slightly, so the rack can accommodate all tyre thicknesses. It is essential to install DIAN at the right height from the ground, so the wheel holder grips the tyre in two places.

In terms of durability, the wheel holders are made from 16mm-thick steel, providing a solid and robust rack that will stand up to urban use. The rack is hot-dip galvanised for rust protection and to extend its useful life. Any powder coating is then applied on top as additional protection against rain, salt, etc. The paint will become worn over time, but can be refreshed if needed.

Bicycle rack with DGNB compliant dimensions

DIAN is available as single-sided modules with 3, 4, 5 or 6 parking spaces or double-sided modules with 6, 8 or 10 spaces. The modules can be combined. There is a 50 cm gap between wheel holders as standard. We can also supply DIAN with a 60 cm gap as recommended under the German DGNB sustainability certification, which is comparable to BREEAM.

The wheel holders can be wall-mounted or supported by bollards (embedded or bolted to the ground). We use a relatively thick bollard as standard (Ø 114 mm) with a shallow conical top that is in keeping with the overall look of the bicycle rack.

DIAN can be installed at an angle to save on depth.
