This store just opened up a few months back, and they had zero bike parking.

I emailed their head office, saying that I was planning to shop there, but not until they added a bike rack.

Went to check last night, and boom! Bike rack!

    It’s a very old design, it was popular in the 80’s when theft wasn’t much of an issue. Mainly just to keep the bikes upright and out of the way.

      That makes sense. Can lock the front tire but not much of the frame. We had one of these installed near me and most people locked to the side of it until the business replaced them.
