Default Bike Tek Paddock Stand from Biker-Bitz

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...975684204&rd=1

Anyone got one of these ?
At £18-95 is it good value or cheap and nasty ?

Cheers
Tricky

Well bought it anyway.
Must say I'm a little dissapointed.
I did find it difficult to get the bike on and off it. (more difficult to get off than on)
Also if you dont get the cups lined up absolutley spot on up you can scratch the swing arm as the rubbers are only in the centre of the cups.
One of the rubbers came off first time I used it also.
I think i'll be getting a Micron one and some bobbins.

This is the same stand as mine, except I paid an extra £7 for the bobbin hooks... Much easier to use with swing-are bobbins fitted, than the standard 'cups'... Can't complain, I got my stand for £5 delivered (off eBay) - Used, obviously

The micron one is almost exactly the same as this one IMHO... You're just paying for the name

I've ordered some hooks and bobbins.

I'll hang on to the stand itself if there isn't much difference between that one and the competition.

Thanks

Didn't like the cheapo one even with the hooks, bobbins etc, gave it to my brother (also rides an SV (amongst other things)) who modified it so you bolt the paddock stand to the swingarm.
He thinks its ace.

I bought an expensive Micron race stand which I think is ace, and its purple.
