No, I haven't been climbing up any walls.

I keep my bicycle in the basement, and have to carry it up and down
a tight staircase.  It seems like just the merest touch of the black
bicycle tire (or my red grab-ons) against the (white) walls leaves a
smudge.  Before my housemate (who just had the place repainted)
kills me, I'd like to know how to remove these marks.

I don't know for sure what kind of paint this is (I don't really
want to ask my housemate and draw it to his attention), but a couple
cans in the basement say "vinyl acrylic latex flat paint", although
it looks like "ordinary white" to me.

Any suggestions?
