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

Long term, if your repair stand's limit is lower than your ebike's weight, it might be time for a better workstand. The Feedback Sports Sprint and Topeak Prepstand X both use an axle/bottom bracket mounting system and comparing them to the others in the test is like comparing apples to oranges. Load capacity: this isn't going to matter so much if you're only working on a 7kg road bike, but a strong stand is crucial for those who own downhill mountain bikes or even electric bikes. Oscar prefers lightweight road and gravel frames with simple tube shapes, rather than the latest trend for aerodynamics and full integration. Some of the more useful of these include attachable trays for tools and small parts, carry bags and wheel-truing stand attachments.

Adjusting the height of the clamp may also provide easier access to otherwise hard-to-reach spots or the current repair or maintenance task. I set the clamp reasonably loose, set the clamp to horizontal position and clamp the top tube at the point where the bike would stay balanced on the clamp even without any clamping forces.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. A new version of the VeloCompact, now supplied with 13 pin lights (we include a free lighting adapter if you have 7 pin lights). In bikes where the top tube is completely round, you may need more clamping force which could be risky.

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. The range of clamp opening sizes: the Topeak PrepStand Pro and Feedback Sports Recreational open up to around 2 inches, while the Bike Hand and Park Tool PCS-10.

If it's a harder or slicker pad type, it can be hard to reliably keep the bike from twisting in the stand, which is the typical way to hurt the paint, and in those cases you'll need to use a clean rag to clamp around. We don’t know about you, but the last thing we want to do after a nice long bike ride is to haul an extremely heavy electric bike over our heads. An intuitive and fast working head-clamp system is an essential requirement when handling a heavy E-MTB.

However, if you don’t need portability and you’ve got an appropriate space, don’t dismiss a workbench or wall mounted bike clamp. Please contact us if you would like to volunteer and help with the organization of events and rides. To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. But it’s the same compact size when collapsed so it remains one of the most portable bike stands around!High-quality metal quick-release levers and collars ensure the tolerances stay tight and stability isn't sacrificed. If you’re anything like us in our pre-workstand home mechanic methods, you’ll be leaning your bike against a wall, hoping that it doesn’t tip over as you work.
