LodeStar and SpaceRail Compatibility Guide

The Complete Bike and Kit Storage System

If you are searching for the best way to organise your garage, bike room or home storage space, combining SpaceRail bike storage with LodeStar modular kit storage gives you a complete solution.

SpaceRail is engineered specifically for storing bicycles overhead.
LodeStar is designed to organise cycling accessories and riding kit.

Together, they create a fully integrated bike and gear storage system that keeps your space clear, organised and ready for every ride.

What Is the Difference Between LodeStar and SpaceRail?

Understanding the difference is key when planning your setup.

SpaceRail: Overhead Bike Storage

SpaceRail is a ceiling mounted rail system that allows you to store bikes overhead using sliding hooks. It is designed to:

• Free up valuable floor space

• Allow bikes to slide and stagger for easy access

• Store multiple bikes efficiently

• Create a clean and structured garage layout

If you are looking for ceiling bike storage or overhead bike rails, SpaceRail is built for that purpose.

LodeStar: Modular Cycling Kit Storage

LodeStar is not for storing bicycles. It is a modular wall storage system designed for cycling accessories and riding equipment.

It organises:

• Helmets

• Shoes

• Goggles and eyewear

• Hydration packs

• Tools and spares

• Chargers and indoor training accessories

If you are searching for cycling accessory storage, bike kit organisation or modular garage wall storage, LodeStar is designed specifically for those needs.

How LodeStar and SpaceRail Work Together

The compatibility between LodeStar and SpaceRail comes down to smart fitting design. LodeStar attachments are available with two fitting options depending on where you want to mount them.

Type A and B fittings:

A Fittings: For LodeStar Boards and Rails

A fittings are used when installing LodeStar boards or LodeStar rails on the wall.

Every LodeStar attachment that mounts onto a dedicated LodeStar system uses an A fitting. This creates a fully modular wall storage setup that can be expanded and reconfigured as your kit evolves.

If you are installing a complete LodeStar wall storage system, you will be using A fittings.

B Fittings: For SpaceRail Side Integration

B fittings are smaller and designed to fit onto the sides of existing SpaceRail rails.

If you already have SpaceRail installed and want to add cycling accessory storage directly to that structure, you choose LodeStar attachments with B fittings.

This allows you to:

• Store bikes overhead with SpaceRail

• Add helmet, shoe or kit storage to the side of the rail

• Expand your setup without installing additional wall boards

It is an efficient way to create an integrated bike and kit storage solution within the same footprint.

Choosing the Right Setup

Here is the simple breakdown.

If you want to store bikes → Use SpaceRail.
If you want to store cycling accessories → Use LodeStar.
If installing LodeStar boards or rails → Choose A fittings.
If attaching LodeStar accessories to SpaceRail sides → Choose B fittings.

This modular approach allows you to design a storage system that works for road cycling, mountain biking, gravel riding or indoor training setups.

The Benefits of a Combined Bike Storage System

By combining overhead bike storage with modular accessory storage, you create:

• A clutter free garage

• Faster pre ride preparation

• Better protection for bikes and equipment

• A scalable storage system that grows with you

Instead of separating bikes and kit across different solutions, LodeStar and SpaceRail create one cohesive bike garage storage system.

Build a Complete Riding Zone

A well organised storage space removes friction from your riding routine. When bikes are stored securely overhead and accessories are clearly organised on the wall or integrated onto your rail system, preparation becomes effortless.
