any recomendations on bike stands under £50??
cheers
Mine has a 'Bike Hand' badge on it. Paid around £40 off the 'bay for it.
Strong enough, stable enough. Good bit of kit.

Local Aldi still has them in stock did not check the prce though as I have one
Display or work stand?
If work stand and you're only doing light work the Lidl one is OK for the price (about £25 IIRC)
For a display stand/storage the Feedback sports one is great. Fold-able too and about £30

£55, but I've had mine years with no issues, only downside is with a heavy/long bike (my Large Fatty being the main culprit) it's possible to push it over sideways if you're clumsy because it's only really stable in stopping it falling forwards (same problem you'd have with any stand of that style)
I splashed out £25 on an Aldi one last week. It seems to do the job ok and has 3 year warranty.
+1 on that Ribble one, even if it is a smidge over-budget.
I got the same one from Merlin a few years ago & it's still like new.
i have the ribble one too - tend to keep the front wheel touching the ground for added stability. overall a great stand
I have a halfords one, pretty decent.
