Bike stand parts and how to assemble them
|
You just need 3 pieces of a strong profile like this oval aluminum tube but wood can also be used.
The stand pole is about 90 cm high and the base legs some 60 cm each. |
|
Fix the two legs perpendicularly in a way to form a cross.
Fix the pole to one of the legs: the advantage of this profile used for aluminum balustrades is that it provides a channel on each side of the oval section for fitting in a screw.
Note how a galvanized steel corner found in a leftovers box was used to reinforce the pole.
Furniture rubber pads were added to the bottom of the legs. The ones of the leg that is fixed on top of the other are higher to compensate the thickness of the latter.

Now you need to create a hook as a seat for the bike tube which will constitute a steady support while you work on your bike.
In this case, a 10 mm threaded rod was bent and fixed to the top of the pole before fitting in a piece of transparent hose.
Finally a rubber square cut from a tire inner tube was fixed to make sure the bicycle tube does not touch a sharp metallic part that can damage its paint while placed into its seat.

You can now have your MTB or any other bike sitting in its support with its rear wheel not touching the ground which allows you to freely rotate the pedals and inspect, adjust, dismantle and repair your bicycle.
