GOEHNER's E Bike Repair Stand Heavy Duty (Max 100 lbs) - Portable Bicycle Repair Stand Mechanics Workstand for Maintenance of Heavy E Bike, Bike Mountain Bike and Road Bike

Product Information

A new version of the popular VeloCompact, now supplied with 13 pin lights (we include a free lighting adapter if you have 7 pin lights).

These go a long way to making the repair work more comfortable, but make sure you're only paying for what you need. All the models we tested can be set up in just a handful of seconds, but a few stood out from the pack. Additionally, if you're frequently mounting different bikes or styles of bikes on these stands, you'll have to adjust the mounting locations and swap adapters each time. The clamp on this stand can accommodate triangular or oval-shaped pipes with diameters ranging from 1 to 3 inches. And while the Feedback Sport has three legs, the spinning closing mechanism on the clamp could be much easier (quicker) to use.That’s personal opinion of course but I volunteer at my local Active Travel Hub and take my Feedback with me as they have Bike Hand’s. There’s no better feeling than being able to fix your own bike, or trying to, and a big step towards that is getting your own bike workstand. Thanks to a central column these adapt better to the floor and allow the bike to swivel by 360 degrees. It's good for most things besides mounting a rear motor, which I do with the bike leaning against something most times anyway.

International products have separate terms, are sold from abroad and may differ from local products, including fit, age ratings, and language of product, labeling or instructions. These prop-stands and mounts facilitate effortless parking in diverse settings, from urban areas to trails, ensuring bikes remain upright, preventing scratches and falls.I have a Surly Pugsley that is relatively heavy to begin with, but now that I am installing an electric hub and a battery, I am afraid that most regular stand won't support the weight. On the other hand they are far less stable without load and aren’t an optimal solution on uneven or sloping surfaces; In this case three legged stands are much better. An intuitive and fast working head-clamp system is an essential requirement when handling a heavy E-MTB. It may not suit taller mechanics because its maximum height is 108cm, nor will it be the most effective option for an externally cabled bike, but it takes up little room when fully folded and is a lightweight option. On the other hand, the Feedback Sports Sprint and Prepstand X axle/bottom bracket mounting stands were the least conducive to everyday maintenance.

What may happen over time, is that a gap between the two sets of teeth develops, as a result of consistent torque from the weight of the clamped bike. For obvious structural reasons repair stands are subjected to strong leverage forces and the additional weight of an E-MTB with its heavy battery and motor can become an issue with conventional repair-stands.People come in different shapes and sizes, and having the ability to adjust the height of your bike work stand is an important feature. It allows you to do all your work with both wheels mounted, and thru-axles and strangely placed brakes won’t be a cause for concern. We were also big fans of the Topeak Prepstand Pro, for other reasons, including its all-metal hardware and an air-cushioned dampened feel when lowered.

My main rides couldn't be held up by any of the normal bike workstands, either becuase of shape or weight.And as a 2nd side note, I use the Feedback FLOP STOP (Handlebar Holder) and imho it's the best I've seen/used. also doesn’t use quick-release in its folding arrangement, instead relying on hex bolts, so it can take longer to set up. Many workstands are easily foldable and put away, and provide most home mechanics with the ideal solution of a stable platform to work on their bikes and the convenience of storing the stand. As you've found, there are lots of DIY solutions which may suit your needs however, you asked about repair stands so I will comment on the 2 I use daily: Park PCS-10 and Bike Hand YC-100BH (produced under many names). By spinning the lever when closed you can make micro adjustments to how tightly it grips your frame.
