NOT for Trek Mountain Bikes

On: 2008-06-27

I just received this stand and went to try it on my Trek 4500 and did not fit, not only did it not fit, but put some scratched on my bike :o(. So now Im stuck with this stand that will most likely not do anything for me. Its not worth returning it. I paid $8.49 for the stand and the same for shipping. $16.98 total. It will cost me about $5 to ship it back so I will only get $3 back after its all said and done which to me is not worth it.

If you plan on using this on a Trek Mountain bike look elsewhere, it will not fit and will scratch it. :o(

Excellent portable stand, especially for touring

The Pyramid Bottom Bracket bike stand is a great option to take along on those overnight rides. For example, when I do the DALMAC ride it allows me to stand my bike up during the overnight stays instead of laying it down on the ground or trying to find a (scarce) tree at the campground. With my bike standing I can then hang my riding clothes on it to dry in the sun. For these reasons I highly recommend this portable bike stand.

Works!!

Works fine. Raises rear tire approximately 4" off the ground. Good for adjustments or some repairs. Great value!

It works

Its made cheaply both material and the workmanship. Its made of relatively soft metal like chrome colored brass. Bright side of this is its easy to cut, so if the wheel of you bicycle goes way up high, you can cut it lower with a hack saw with relative ease, at least easier than cutting steel. It supports the weight of a bicycle pretty well but you cant sit on the bike while its on the stand, of course. Even when I cranked the pedal to the full speed, it was stable to reasonable level. It could have been a better design with hollow aluminium(or good quality steel tube) and lighter and I would have happily paid the higher price for it. The bottom line is this. Its not the most refined looking stand but it works for its purpose and I recommend it to anyone who needs a simple portable bike stand for on location repair or adjustment.
