Title: build your own bike stands £2.99
Post by: harris on June 15, 2006, 12:45 PM

hear you go if you dont fancy lashing out on stands build your own for £2.99p
beg or borrow tools i got me own so tad easier.
1 pipe bender
1 length 20mm or smaller 6 ft long tube thin as poss
1 tape
1 welder
cut 2x 12 inch lenght pipe straight
cut 2x24 inch lenght bent in pipe benders till it looks ok
find middle of 12 inch pipe mark it ,then mark 22mm either side of center  you will then have a 44 mm gap to slot your wheel in.
weld it up it took me 10 mins total time.
