What is wrong with

a) lifting it on the side stand and turn wheel?
or
b) using a paddock/abba stand to lift the wheel off the deck?

Sounds like the biggest waste of 50 quid short of lending it to Gordon Brown

Agreed, an Abba/NWS/other paddock stand will probably be a better investment in the long run as it lets you do a whole lot more than just turn your back wheel.

I've got an Abba stand - there are many threads on here as to the pros/cons of various stands.
