NWS Stands - Similar to Abba Stands - SV650.org

26-08-09, 03:04 PM

Are NWS still about. I seem to remember them going pop.

Reason I ask is I was after an Abba type stand but my drive is on a slope. My concerns with the Abba is that the bike may roll backwards off the stand. The NWS one has a stabilising bar that comes out of the back.

NWS have ceased trading, quite a while back now, and Pyramid Plastics bought the bodywork side of the business (moulds and machinery etc..). One of the engineers tried to keep the stand business going, used a website called ww.bike-stands.co.uk, but he too has ceased trading.

They are by far the best stand to get, more stable and required no adaptors between models (unless you owned a BMW).
