I bought this last year. Wobbles a bit, but for the price - bargain

Right just to let everyone know.

Bought one cos at that price it's an Uber bargain.

Unfortunately they didn't drill the holes for the joints in the right place on one side so I had to drill them again to get the bolt to go through. As I had widened the hole slightly the arm then was really wobbly and so was the otherside although not as bad.
So I drilled a small hole through the connecting joint and rammed a couple of self tappers to hold the arms steady.

I now have a good sturdy front paddock stand for £15 Top of the pops.

At £15 I didn't expect much but actually the stand it pretty good. The forks/prong thingys are made out of some thick metal and the way the system works means that once you have set the widthof your forks on the stand they remain in place..which is nice for a very cheap stand.

4 Stars from Mr Speirs

Can you keep bikes on front/rear paddock stands during winter months?
