I think the "standard shape" like the n type rack like you posted is the best and simple. There's some really shit tier rack design as well as some good design choices. For my first post in this thread, I'd like to share a bike rack design that is so stupid I'm angered every time I see it. I don't have to explain how bad this design is, do I?

OP is pretty good, although I would include a vertical bar in the center as well.

now with this one, the hipsters in the hipster part of town though it would be nice to block lock access by incorporating "art" into their lock design

now these I really like, if you look closely they're rubber lined on the sides to prevent paint damage on the bike. It looks like they're just hoops cemented in concrete too so I assume they're easier to mass produce and install. I think the shape is less than ideal than the standard n shape though.

The only problem is the user when idiots park bikes with low handlebars in the upper slots and bikes with tall handlebars in the lower slots.

I think it's pretty obviously a space-saving design. It's pretty cool.

fuck this. this rack style without the "art" is my favorite type.

picrel is the worst rack design i've dealt with so far, and it comes in 2 variants. they're too thick to get a standard size ulock around at any angle except perpendicular, which really limits locking options and most often doesn't allow for locking through wheel and frame. sometimes you can sheldon brown it through just the rear wheel, sometimes not. the smaller hoop variant is a little better, but way less common

Usually, the nuts are welded to the thread so that it can't be "unbolted".

Trouble with these is that idiots constantly install them against a wall, so that you can't get your front/back wheel through, and lock it to the frame.

This, except with also a hasp, and you carry a Medeco padlock with you as well, and perhaps each locker also has an alarm system so anyone trying to break into it gets noticed.

a lot of bike racks are made of material that's easier to cut through than the locks attached to them making them nearly worthless

Be gentle retard or you can have this problem with anything you lock to

True, but if someone wants it, they're getting it.
It's about preventing crimes of opportunity.
Hell there's been times where I've just locked the wheel to the frame when there wasn't something good and I was only gonna be a minute, just so someone doesn't get on and ride away for the hell of it.
Usually that's enough. Your bike lock only has to be better than the one next to it.
