Decent Mechanics Bike Stand

mrv

Can anyone recommend a decent mechanics bike stand that isn't really expensive? I like the look of the Park Tools PRS-15 but it's £250 which seems a bit steep. It doesn't look as if any of the other Park stands will take the accesory tray.

This ones pretty good, especially for 50 quid. a few stability issues, but it works.

This one takes it up another level, very stable and a good way of mounting the bike on, via seatpost generally.

Hope that helps

No accessories tray but it's chunkier than the image suggests and it's never going to be Park-good, but at £54 you really can't go wrong! I've got one and sure it could be better but really, all you end up feeling is "I can't believe it was only £54!"

£5 off orders over £50 at the mo too, just ordered myself the lifeline toolkit.

I fancy one of the Boss workstands from Ribble, who are alsy having a 10% off code at the mo - shown on the front page.

Which makes this: http://www.ribblecycles.co.uk/details.asp?D=P&Cat=WORKSTANDS&Section=WORK&GenCode=BOSSWORK0200 £36

And this: http://www.ribblecycles.co.uk/details.asp?D=P&Cat=WORKSTANDS&Section=WORK&GenCode=BOSSWORK0250 £45

£2.95 postage though.

Decathlon are currently selling these for £35, reduced down from £50. I have one and for the money it's very good....
