If there is enough space on your wall you could consider an arrangement of your bikes on the using these:

This does seem a little pricey when you multiply it by however many bikes you have, but you may be able to find something similar or use this for inspiration. Then you could find another kind of storage option for helmets, etc. I know it's convenient, but you might also consider finding another spot to hang coats. I love the space though - definitely has a lot of potential!

I live in a studio apartment with my fiance and floor and closet space are both incredibly limited, so we found this solution oddly works really well for us to store our clothes:

It's technically shoe storage, but they actually hold quite a bit of clothes too! We used wall anchors and mounted them in two rows of three, but they are flexible to be put in any kind of configuration that fits your space. And they only stick out 8" from the wall so they work really well in tight spaces. IKEA has a bunch of other shoe storage options with a slim profile that look like traditional dressers too.
