Product Information

What's more, these bike stands can be folded away so they take up less storage space when they're not in use. We tested eight of the most popular work-stands on the market and will tell you which one is the ultimate E-MTB stand. inch diameter aluminum tube and well-made head clamps plated with rust-resistant ABS to prevent bike scratches. It can be mounted between the saddle and the handlebars as well as between the assembly stand and the handlebars or front wheel. After all we’re not all bodybuilders who can hold up a 23,5 kg bike for five minutes while getting the clamp ready.

It works by supporting the bike at the bottom bracket, which lifts the rear wheel and drivetrain off the ground, allowing riders to check their shifting and make quick adjustments. Many repair stands have a weight limit that’s high enough to support most e-bikes, but some of the lighter and/or portable stands that are meant for travel may not be appropriate. The load capacity is also a clue to the rigidity of the stand – if it can hold a 45kg bike well, it's cerainly going to hold a 10kg bike very securely. The stability of a repair stand will depend on it’s footprint, it’s height, how heavy your bike is, and very importantly: how you’ve attached the bike to the stand. The base's spring button and the stand's quick-release clamp make unfolding intuitive and the stand folds away to a convenient size.

It gives me the confidence that i needed to get back out on my bike and enjoy the freedom of cycling again.

There's no denying the satisfaction of owning a permanent mounted stand that is more solid than the bike it's holding, but a permanent repair stand is really only for committed home mechanics.The Topeak Prepstand Max is a bottom-bracket mounted option, where the bike rests on the top of the stand in a V-shaped jaw. Popular bike repair stands from leading cycle brands such as LifeLine and Park Tool help cycling enthusiasts take greater care of their bike at home. The only weak point of three legged models is the connection between the legs and the central column; this isn’t always stable enough and can cause the stand to bend under heavy loads. And it also folds down into a package that’s just 40 x 8" (102 x 20 cm) making it extremely compact.
