Hairy Posted March 1, 2012 Author Posted March 1, 2012 Hi all William from William's Bike Shop in Sommerset West has confirmed the new Hold Fast 1 stands to accomodate the bigger wheel format and they are just short of R150.00 from his store ... oh he also has stock
An3 Posted March 1, 2012 Posted March 1, 2012 I've ordered a Feedback Rakk Storage and Display Stand from CRC. I will let you know how it works.
Hairy Posted March 1, 2012 Author Posted March 1, 2012 Thanks An3, but with that stand all you can do is let your bike stand in the rack and will not be able to do some basic mechanical works to the gears and / or rear brakes.
Big H* Posted March 3, 2012 Posted March 3, 2012 (edited) My bike fits and there is clearance but Ive got big 203 stoppers and the discs snag on the stand. Also my giant IDT cant take my 29" wheel so I've resorted to stealing the 26 inch back wheel from my wife's bike to use on the trainer Leave the 26" wheel on. It will upgrade the twenty naainer Edited March 3, 2012 by eccentric1
Big H* Posted March 3, 2012 Posted March 3, 2012 I am a little puzzled now ........ ya mean with all the munny you paid for your naainers they cannot even stand by themselves on those massive wheels that roll so easy??????
Hairy Posted March 4, 2012 Author Posted March 4, 2012 No. The old school 26"wheels and roadie wheels previously dictated the design parameters behind the stand. Now that man and bike have evolved further the other aspects of the sport might not all be the best that they can be. You would be surprised how little my bike cost me. thanks though for leading the thread off topic.

scotty Posted March 4, 2012 Posted March 4, 2012 Just finished doing a wash and minor service on my 29.er using the bike stand similar to op pic, no issues with clearance.
Iwan Kemp Posted March 4, 2012 Posted March 4, 2012 (edited) I use these for road, MTB and 29er. (See what I did there? ) Ultimate support bicycle standhttp://www.planetbmx.com/shop/images/uploads/bike_rack_blk-1.jpg Edited March 4, 2012 by The Crow
