About this deal

Unfortunately my seatpost is very crowded, and as my bike lives in the workstand when at home, the jaws have worn away the paint on my getting to work bike, not so much on the good bike, less time in there and the front mech cable stops stops her moving. Now, I'm about to get my new bike, and while I'm going to try and not be too precious about her paintjob, I don't want to do something that will hurt her unnecessarily. What would people use to line the jaws to stop this? I've given bit of old latex tubes a go, and that seems good, but there is a bit of rubbery flex. Anything better? I know it's the filth that grinds, so keeping things cleaner will help, but do I have to buy a non work stand for the majority of her sitting in the living room?

So I would say, if you want something that’s a significant upgrade on the Bike Hand stand, in all respects, you probably need to spend twice as much.

If you’ve never looked at bike repair stands before, then the first thing that might surprise you are the prices. They're expensive! They’re compatible with every type of bike. You have multiple places you can attach your bike. And you don’t have to keep taking your wheel on and off every time you want to test your work!

Bicycle is the ultimate short-distance transportation solution. It is the most environmentally-friendly vehicle. It is great for your health in general. It is not bad for your wallet too. Sure, they tend to break too. However, generally speaking, you don't have to be a professional to fix a bike. All you need is a functional pair of hands, a little time and effort, and a repair bike stand. With a stand like that, you'll be able to fix just about any issue with your bike at home. At the same time, these stands are usually very much portable, so you'll also be able to bring them with you. But they’re not made of thin, cheap plastic. Everything is very chunky and robust. And you don’t find people that have owned these stands for several years complaining that they wear out. Most, (but not all) repair stands can be made taller or shorter. This is important if you are very tall (but less so if you’re particularly small!).Like all the repair stands at this price point, there are a lot of plastic parts (where more expensive stands use metal). And this raises questions about it’s durability over time. Decathlon is always a great source of bargains, and this B’Twin 500 Bike Workstand is no exception. Nothing else will let you get both wheels of your bike off the ground, and ready to work on, for less cash. The working height is really good, too, so it’s a comfortable stand to use. The Lifeline Pro workstand claims to blend pro-level build quality with ease of use, at a price that’s appealing to the home mechanic. It also boasts a maximum bike weight limit of 40kg, making it suitable for e-bikes, and has a wider range of height adjustment than most competing workstands too. Lifeline uses a mix of heavy duty aluminium and steel tubing to aid long-term durability and deal with heavier e-bikes, and at 9.5kg its weight is noticeable. It is 4kg heavier than more portable lightweight options, and it measures 1.5m when folded, so it’s not an ideal choice for the car boot. However, this is not an issue for home use, where the excellent clamp is a highlight, and the fact that the stand can be raised high enough to create a comfortable working height even if you’re over 6ft. Automatic operation with Auto-Stop - Holding a button on the remote moves the stand slowly for clamping a bike or making small adjustments. Single-pressing a button on the remote lifts or lowers the bike in automatic mode. Upon touching the ground, E-Billy stops automatically Automatic stopping system with a build in safety feature to keep technician and bicycle on the stand safe
