Hi all,
I want to get a bike stand for my bike. so no more leaving marks on the wall.
there are some on the market for about £20.
for example: http://www.dirtsport.co.uk/productdetail.asp?ProductID=16335
however, i was thinking if there is any stand that slightly lift the rear wheel of the ground so i can carry out simple maintainence
for example: http://www.cyclebasket.com/products.php?plid=m5b9s264p923&rs=gb
I do not want a proper work-stand, simply out of my budget. i m thinking just spend around £30 for something simple.
anyone using something simular would gimme some advice?
cheers

Great bit of kit though, check ebay.

If you look around on Ebay, you can pick up a stand EXACTLY the same as the above link from Blister Plus for £40 (i've got one of those as well). Not up to Park Tool standards, but quite adequate for home mechanicing..Turner 5Spot '11
