I need advice please? I want to buy paddock stands for my bike, but looking at how many varieties there are, I'm unsure what I need? I don'twant to buy the wrong ones, so which ones do I need please?
If you want ease of use go for the one's that use bobbins that fit to your swing arm and have a hook attachment! the ones that lift under the swing arm can be a right pain to get in and out!!
Tab, go to your prefered bike shop and ask if they could show you both types, then ask for their advice. Spesh has pretty much the right idea I think, the type that is adaptable to bobbins or plates. End of the day, it is your pennies so get as much practical advice as you can.
Hi Tab, dunno if you got sorted with paddock stand? I aint tried one but i do like the look of this one and will be looking for one at Stafford in a couple of weeks time.
I was told by a mate yesterday if you fit bobins on your bike put bike on side stand as normal then put small car jack under the bobbin on the other side at the rear and lift bike up you only need 5mm under the wheel to do jobs like clean and lube chain or cleaning the wheel. I would not advise removing the wheel like this but for the small jobs simple
