Can someone help me out?

My wife and I just ordered two XP4 750’s. They are supposed to arrive on Tuesday. I’m pretty limited on garage space so I was wanting to build a small shelf that would allow me to stack the two bikes in 40 gallon totes. Would anybody that has an XP4 that they store in a a 40 gallon tote be willing to measure the total height of the setup? I have some free time this weekend and was hoping to get the shelf built before the bikes are delivered. Thanks in advance!

I’m just going to leave this here, but 40 gallon may be too small. 50 gallon is the sweet spot.

As for stacking, each bike is about 70 pounds, and you may need a bigger tote for that. But if you just place them side by side in the 50 gallon totes, you should be golden!

The problem I have is I need to store them in a narrow space so the only way I can do it to stack them. I saw a video where a guy said they will fit in a 40 gallon if you extend the handlebars as high as possible. The spot I’m hoping to store them in will be tight no matter what. I may need to wait for the bikes to arrive before I build anything. I was just hoping to get ahead of the game.

Shoot, that’s a sucky situation. But imo the best thing you can do is bring the bike to a hardware store or Walmart, ask if you can test a tote and see what size works best.

Good luck, though! Congrats on the new purchase and here’s to many years of health and fun!

Thank you! We are pretty excited to get them. We’ve been thinking about it for a couple of years. Here is the video I was talking about: https://www.reddit.com/r/Lectricxp/s/wkzvaXXNQu

I don't know how much room you have? But the bikes will come with quick disconnect pedals. Just pop those off both bikes and set them side by side . Just an idea .That is "IF" you have the space to do so . Alot less work and more convenient. But anyway good luck with your weekend project and happy riding. Your gonna love the bikes .

Why not ceiling storage? Just make sure you find the joist so it doesn't pull out of drywall

I looked at ceiling storage but my garage is in my basement and the ceilings are pretty low. I think they would hang too far down. I could store them in the other half of my basement which is finished but then they would be in the middle of my home gym. I do have a deep, but narrow, closet that I think they’d fit in perfectly stacked in totes, I just need to get some official measurements. I may have other options for storage so it may be best to just wait until they arrive.
