$19.00 repair stand

[larry-new]

Whoopie! Just ordered an Ibera stand from Amazon. Nothing fancy, just a metal triangle with two half plastic circles that attaches to cradle the chain stays to lift the rear wheel off the ground.

Nestled among the $@150 stands, this one caught my eye, and there was a great review from a 1000w. ebike owner, who said it worked great.

My Rad City gets another accessory...this one will let me tighten spokes easily, etc.

Link please. And tell us how you like it when you have a chance to use it

I think it's probably this. Looks handy. I've thought about getting one to leave in my truck for trailhead use. I use a PCS 10 at home.

 

[larry-new]

That's it. Simple but cheap.

Looks very handy!

I prefer to work on my bike without stooping over so far. Glad it works for you, but I like to work much higher. Easier with my bifocals too!

It would be nice, admittedly...used to have a Cannondale stand for the racing bike, but for the price, this is fine for now.

@larry-new for that price, I ordered one (to help out with my chain lubing/cleaning process, vs. turning the bike upside down and balancing on handles and seat!)
However, when it arrived, I noticed it said max load 15 kg / 33lbs. Granted, the front wheel will rest on the ground, taking some weight... Though I've got a rear hub wheel, so a fair amount of weight back there -- I'll give it a try and see -- but hopefully it won't collapse on the first or second use... (though if so, I'll be relieved to only be out $19.)

So far the stand has held up...I'm being careful when placing the bike on the stand. Nice to lube gears and check derallieur.

Those plastic hooks look pretty flimsy. I think I would use a bike trainer stand instead.
