Not a good choice for all size bikes

On: 2010-02-01

Product received was not as advertised. This bike stand is only good for bikes with 20" wheels or larger and doesnt state in description.

Finally, a perfect stand

Look no longer, fellow riders. From the most unexpected place, Husky Bicycles, comes a great stand. Check it out at [...]. Quality materials, low price of only $15 and a perfect solution to keeping bikes securely upright without stressing the spokes! I had to peel an unattractive sticker and it made it perfect. Recommend!

Not so much...

Plastic. Too short. Not sturdy. Doent hold bike very well. Better products are available for the price.

Stand Bike

It is made of plastic, a little bit wobble and theres no hole to put bolts when connecting the vertical bars to horizontal bars.

Great deal

This is a very helpfull tool to hold your bike at any place, easy to build up and strong enough for a big bike

bike rests on spokes, not rim or tire...

When you place your bicycles tire in the stand it only rests the wheel against the spokes. Its not possible to see this in the photo displayed... basically, any place you set the tire, its going to put pressure on the spokes to keep from falling over. Havent continued to use it for fear of damaging my spokes.

Can't trust my bike to it

Simply put, I dont feel comfortable parking my road bike on this. I purchased this GrandStand to park my road bike properly in the garage rather than lean it against the wall. But after using it a couple of times I noticed the stand holds the bike in vertical position by the spokes. There is just too much lateral pressure on the spokes especially that the bike tends to go slightly to one side or the other and you can see the spokes temporarily bending by the weight of the bike. There is another thing that Ive noticed, depending on the bike derailleur and what gear its in, when parking the bike with the rear tire, the stand might get between the derailleur and the spokes, pushing the derailleur away from the tire. This might potentially harm the derailleur.

Not wanting to feel that Ive wasted my purchased, I tried to use it with my cheap mountain bike, but quickly realized the heavy mountain bike would put even more pressure on the spokes than the road bike.

Great portable storage for rides and rallies!

We purchased 2 of these great little units from Gals Garage and cant figure out how we lived without them. Easy to assemble and we throw them in the back of our club chase van so we when we have a rest stop we arent leaning our expensive bikes up against trees, vehicles, benches or having to lay them on the ground. They work great in the garage as well!
