Re: abba stand front lift help.
Says on the website that it is adjustable for height?
Doesn't the bit that lifts the bike not extended out of the tube?

Re: abba stand front lift help.
Andy, I have one and just confirmed by checking it that there is three different heights locked in place using an 'R' clip. Maybe the block of wood is another option. The top does have a few degrees of movement too.
Makes you think if a stand is causing issues then the toolbox should be taken away from this geezer before he hurts himself or others. Last edited by daved407; 15-05-11 at 05:37 PM. |

LOL
Just goes to prove that a little knowledge is dangerous. Do you not need adaptors for the bike with an abba stand? |

Re: abba stand front lift help.
Na not really hes right. Ive never used it ya see.
Basically the bit with the r clip has been removed before i got it (as i understand it) and shortened = no good. Oh well ill have a look at it when he pops it back. I just didnt remember their being any adjustment. Thats because there wasnt but shoud have been! |
