| I have the Blackburn floor stand (< $100 mailorder) and am quite pleased. It
be folded up for carrying. I bring it with me on long racing trips... in the
car, not on the bike 8^)

| >> What are the best bicycle floor stands for holding one bike to work
>> on and their prices?
For a good list get a copy of catalogs Nashbar 1-800-627-4227
and Performance 1-800-727-2453 and compare price and mounting methods.
Two major types are the kind that clamp onto a tube of the bike and
allow positioning flexibility, and the lesser expencive stands that the
bike rest on the stand in one position. I did leave one out that's the
workstand I use. Two hooks on the cellar ceiling with a quick release
cinch straps that you can get a a camping store. Cheap but not very
stable. Prices range from $50.00 for the one postion floor stand to
$150.00 for the deluxe multi-position model w/tool tray.
>> What criteria do you use to determine which one to buy?
How often are you going to use it and how much $'s I want to spend.
I think I'd rather spend the money on a good wheel truing stand, and
make do with my make shift method of a work stand.

Ps "BICYCLING" magazine has an article on "Designing a Home Shop". With a list
of tools and what not. Also a short bit about buying a repair stand.

I have a Park consumer stand. It's not that much more than the
Blackburn, and it has a quick release handle. I work on bikes 2-3
times a month and have had no problems getting any type of bike,
from kids to adult, in the stand. The Park is well worth the $.

| 1465.7 | Blackburn or Park...they are both good | BLKWDO::HUFFAKER | | Tue Apr 03 1990 22:43 | 4 |
| I have a blackburn and have found it to be very useful and easy to
store. I recommend it or the Park(based on inputs from friends).
