Laura & Jason Kenny Asgard Bike Sheds

Back in 2017, Team GB Cyclists Laura and Jason Kenny reached out to Asgard to find a secure storage solution for their garden, well, after three years they came back to Asgard for bike storage advice.

Laura and Jason needed advice from Asgard on which of our range of secure bike sheds would be the best one to house the abundance of bikes and accessories in her new home. After discussing the level of storage and security they needed, Asgard decided two Access 29ers Bike Sheds would be the perfect fit, each of these bike stores can house up to 4 bikes each*. With its gas-assisted lid and double door access, this bike store design makes life a lot easier, just grab your bikes quickly for that ad-hoc ride or store bikes away in seconds. Laura and Jason wanted a unit that could be bolted down to the ground as the sheds would be at the front of the house, giving that extra bit of bike security.

‘We have been lucky enough to have been using Asgard sheds now for many years. The team are so helpful providing me with information so I select the right one. We have had them fitted and put them together ourselves and both have been seamless. I wouldn’t hesitate recommending these sheds to anyone. Our bikes feel safe and secure.’ - Laura Kenny, Olympic Gold Medalist.

Why did Laura and Jason pick the Access 29ers Bike Shed?

The Access 29ers Bike Shed is one of the popular ranges in the Asgard collection and can house up to 4 bikes. The all-metal shed features double door access and a lift-up lid, giving you full access to your bikes and cycling equipment.

As with all Asgard sheds, the Access is designed and manufactured in the UK and is made from tough, galvanised steel. The shed features a super-secure 3-point locking system and shrouded level 8 padlocks, and for extra security, the shed can be bolted down to the ground.
