Workstand recommendations

[darreni]

Looking for recommendations for a decent bike work stand. Budget up to 100 & don’t mind second hand

[Master Bean]

Something like this. There is a cheaper Lifeline one sold by Wiggle/ChainReaction Cycles.

Hi,
I've just got this from Halfords

Didn't want to spend loads, does the job and three legs makes it stable

Decathlon used to do one - worth checking their site.

I had one of theirs for years and it lived outside.


ETA they still sell them...70 quid.

I've got one of these

Purchased back in 2005 and still doing the job!

The cheap folding tripod type legs don't half get in the way!

It might tip the budget, but you can’t beat Park Tools.

I bought one of these last year, its fitted to the garage wall (outside). The clamp is easily removeble and I store it inside the garage on a hook. It is great quality and much more stable than my Aldi work stand.

It's good to take the stand outside for cleaning and fettling in the sunshine.
Other times a bench mount stand would be better IMHO.

I picked up two of these for £25 each when Aldi had a stack of them.. one for me, one for my dad.
Does the job brilliantly, and folds away when not in use.
The support legs do spread out to cover a large area, so definitely one to fold away when not in use..

Out stock at the moment, but next time they do a load of bike stuff...

I have one of Lidl’s Crivit branded ones. Does everything I need and is cheap when they stock them. They usually bring in a run of bike stuff every 3-4 weeks at the moment.

Another vote for these. Great stand with enough strength to deal with my weighty EMTB.
