Help with a bike stand........ Please

[bird]

Hi. I'm after a stand for my bike, free standing and pref one that i can fold away when not in use. Can anyone recommend one. There seems to be lots available in varying price brackets. Just a basic one that does what it says on the tin Will do

Thanks Bird

I dont think you could go wrong with either
www.rutlandcycling.com/13180/Raleigh-Accessories-Work-Stand.html
or
www.rutlandcycling.com/32634/Raleigh-Accessories-Folding-Workstand.html

One's folding and both less than £55 delivered and they have been branded Raleigh.

Thanks Ross. This looks like just what I need and a fantastic price. The 2nd hand ones on eBay have been going for similar or more.

People also mentioned a re-occurring offer on stands at either Aldi or Lidl?? When they're up they apparently go like hot-cakes though.

Here you go Sue....cheapest they do is £27 unless you want a bit of a fancy one

If they don't I'm sure trailrash could get it sprayed for you on his way to work but apparently he wont be able to guarantee not getting any grubby fingers on your pink bits (see commys back thread) northwalesmtb.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=gallery&action=display&thread=8541&page=1

Did bird mean a work stand or a parking stand to lock a bike to?
The aldi/lidl ones look good value but most shops seem to get zero stock of them.
