Bike stand

Postby tuco » Sun Aug 19, 2007 10:59 pm

Somewhere on this forum there's a post with a link to a picture of a nifty little bike stand. It was a small compact stand which sat under the back wheel and hooked onto the rim. The weigh of the bike kept it from falling over. The post it was in or the post under it commented on now the simplest ideas are the best. I've searched and searched but can't seem to find it.

Does anyone remember seeing it?

I know the ones you mean. They cost about $25 in the bike shops. Don't remember the link here though.

That's pretty much it. Well the same principle anyway.

I do have a talent, don't I.

At least you can appreciate it. You can be my new best friend.
