Review on 🚲 gearup The Grand Stand Single Bike Floor Stand: An Essential Black Storage Solution by Kent Page

A stand that uses rear wheel spokes for support is always a compromise. But this one works. I use this stand for my heavy winter bike: Lemond Zurich with mudguards, headlights and many parts. My wheels are high performance touring wheels with a shameful number of spokes. You will come in handy here. I have the stand's support arms as close together as possible while still allowing the rear wheel to slide vertically. When I take my hand away, the bike rests gently on one side of the spokes, then the other. I've studied the pressure on the spokes very carefully, and while I don't like the idea of a bike's weight relative to the spokes in this way, the reality is that they handle the pressure well. practically. You can assemble it in ten minutes. It's easy enough to drop the rear wheel and then you're free to drag the bike across the ground if needed, the front wheel will roll and the low-friction kickstand will glide across the ground surface (without scraping). As I said, this is a compromise design, but it works very well in real life.
