Default Reccommend me a really good front and rear Paddock stand?

Fancy upgrading my old Sealey rear paddock stand.

Would ideally like to get the front up too for cleaning/work.

What ones are the best for this, with so many about to choose from!?

Get an abba stand and a front paddock stand. That's what I use and it fantastic.

+1 on ABBA stands.. great bit of kit.. dont bother with the lift get a front paddock stand.. ok so they aren't cheep but they are well worth the investment... the motrax alu front paddock stands are really good and solid.

You can even get away without a front stand - just fit the Abba, push down on the pillion seat and have someone jam some blocks of wood under the header pipes, or use a trolley jack.

I have a "copy" of the Abba stand, and would thoroughly recommend one.

Get an Abba or an NWS stand, more secure, less restrictive, and allows you to do more work in the future.
