I want to purchase a bike stand for m husband, his bike frame is 38cm and the tube diameter is 5in. would this clamp be to big for his frame and size?

I've used this stand to service/repair my own bike, as well as the bikes of several friends and family members. I haven't yet come across a bike frame that this stand's clamp will not accommodate. I hope this helps.

depending on width of your seat post. (sorry I cannot help with that) You could wrap some (clean) shop towels around it and soften the grip. The inner portion of the clamp is a 'softer' plastic. This was mentioned on a different site selling this stand "Screw type clamp adjusts to fit tubes of various shapes from 7/8" to 3"" i believe there may be adapters for this issue.

That depends on the diameter of your bar clamp: I'd recommend buying spacers. (this handlebar is thinner/intended for motorcycles)

Hi, You would need a clamp that is 1.35". Here are 2 listings for the full sets, the only difference is the width of the peg. These are both 1.35". Part number 7933. and 7920Feel free to contact us with any other questions.Thanks,LaurenTwigg Cycles

I've used this stand for maintenance on two bikes. It's rock solid and I don't see where it's going to wear out anytime soon. One thing I did notice is that the clamp that holds the tube is plenty solid but the part that clamps on the bike tube is plastic over the metal clamp. I'm sure that this is a good idea unless you don't care about metal to metal contact from the clamp to your bike tube. The downside is that it's wise to see where the clamp is going to contact the tube before tightening it. I unknowingly applied the clamp over two cable guides which mauled the plastic clamp cover. No big deal, but if you do that regularly, you might compromise all of the plastic part of the clamp. This is a really solid stand and I would recommend it to anybody.

I have a 26" Trek with crosstrail type tires and it works perfectly - the clamps keep it pretty firmly upright. Not sure how wide your tires are, the wider ones may make more noise.

Should work just fine. I use it all the time for older lugged bikes I rebuild. The weight don't seem to be an issue but I'm not sure if it would be a problem if you have a large top tube. Example if it's a square tube. Honestly I think it would work fine if you don't want to spend the money for a park tool stand.

I have a Trek hybrid and looks like it would support a tube about twice the thickness of mine. My bar looks to be about 1.5 inch diameter.

I think a 5" post would be pushing the limits of the clamp width. I would step up to the larger size.

Sorry, the U-clamp is in my boat and I'm not planning to go there on this week. You gonna get two different sizes which fit everywhere. I'm using the smaller U-clamp which is approximately 25-30 mm (1-1 1/5").

Yes it looks like you have the correct one picked out. They make two sizes. One is for the 26mm (25.4 actually) bars and the other is for the OS bars that measure 31.8. Even though they supply you with huge spacers the 31.8 clamp will not fit the smaller bars. I have these spacebars on a couple of my bikes and love them. In fact one set just made a cross country ride in July.

2 inch diameter, I got the KC tube clamps in their 2 inch size and it fits perfectly.

I think you will be fine. I have used it for 3 different bikes including road and trail bikes. It's a terrific stand. All I need and more.

I believe so to the clamps. Inset with a 33 lb mtn bike. It can get tippy esp if the height adjust is full out.

The clamp is plastic, and not all that thick. I'm not sure exactly what your set up is, but I'm thinking it will not work how you want it to with out some reinforcing.

Hello Raymond,I would recommend at least 2" to secure the clamp.Thank you for your question.Taylor W.VIVO

Clamp measures 2 inches. So I would say u would need about 2.5 inches to easily attach. Good luck
