Where to buy Hollowtech II stand

Corners R Us

I'm after a small triangular stand that has an arm that runs through the larger drive side crank of a Hollowtech II chainset. I'd spotted someone selling them on eBay for about £20 and thought I'd buy one when I came back from holiday but now I can't find them listed anymore! I know Abba stand do them but I'm not paying £50+ for one!!! Anyone got one they don't use and want to sell or can point me to someone who sells them for sensible money?

Note to people considering buying a bike stand; buy one that clamps to the seatpin as it'll fit all you future bikes!!!!

I picked up a Topeak FAT stand - works fine on my SLX/XT cranks.

£40 for a piece of bent pipe. You can get a decent workstand for less than that.

I'm not sure about how 'decent' a stand you get with regards to the cheaper ones. I spent £70+ on a nice Topeak one but it doesn't work with my recently purchased full sus bike hence the closing sentence about buying a stand that clamps to the seat post.......

Cheap Aldi stand works fine, clamps to the seat posts on all our bikes

mis-understood earlier - i thought you just wanted a stand not a work stand.

it may get slated but i use one of these £20.

Useful stand but wont work on the Marin Mount Vision I have due to the configuration of the rear stays. I think it might be easier in the long run to sell the Topeak stand I have been using and re-invest in a stand that will work on all my bikes.......

I'm with cool dad, I have one of those eBay stands and they're brilliant for the price.

I have the Aldi stand, very good vfm and i think the same as the ebay stands Cooldad has picked out.

How robust are the clamps? I got the sense that this was their weak spot? A trip to Aldis pending.....

The clamps are fine, just get one of the ones cooldad has posted they are all pretty much the same as the Aldi ones anyway.
