Any ideas for a cheap and cheerful repair stand??

john1000000boy

Would like a good repair stand for servicing the bikes on. Will be buying online, so wont know construction/strength etc. Does'nt need to be light as will be for home use only. foldaway into a compact-ish size. Budget upto about £50ish. I like the design that grabs the frame with either a plier clamp or screw. Not really a fan of the ones that you have to take the wheel off to use.

Any suggestions and links appreciated

Thanks

many threads on this bud have a search. I brought the bike tools stand from merlins cycles which is around £60 and its a nice feeling stand.

otherwise lidle are doing one for under £40

If your local Lidl has one left (went on sale today) then they are doing a great one for the price. £30 and only had positive feedback so far from everyone.

Good Luck

Do people not read existing threads? Theres about 5 threads on the front page of Buying Section all about work stands.

I've never found the search functionality on this forum particularly effective for finding existing threads to be honest

No need to search, its on the front page in "Buying Advice"!

Are these 2 at the top not the same stands?? What are your views on the tool kit as part of the offer??

Thanks again
