Do the stand legs get in the way of your feet? Most other bicycle stands have 2 legs that are set at a wide angle, so you can stand close to the bike.

They haven't been an issue for me, but I adjusted the horizontal cross arm with the clamp on it out pretty far. I mainly did that so I can run the pedals and shift gears with the bike on the stand without the pedal on the stand side running into the vertical bar. I guess the added benefit of adjusting the bike farther away from the rack is that it keeps the stand legs out of the way also. The stand they show in the picture does not have the legs fully extended. When they are, it's a really wide base and I haven't had any issues with it wanting to tip over. I'm usually putting a MTB with 29" wheels on it so it's pretty heavy. I've also used the stand in my back yard on uneven surfaces and it's still pretty solid.

No, the legs do not get in the way of your feet. The stand makes working on a bike way easier and more comfortable.

Tripping over the feet is NOT a problem we have encountered. I guess theoretically it is possible, especially if you have the feet splayed as wide as possible. Normally the bike is held away from the central upright hence you are unlikely to trip over the feet because the bike is in the way. IF you are really worried perhaps move the bike instead of yourself!

I have no problem accessing the bike while on the stand. The multiple legs give greater support then the two legged versions. I really like the stand as it is stable. I have used it with folding, male and female comfort bicycles.

The stand is great but will only hold the bike upright with the back wheel resting on the frame...It doesn't raise the back wheel nor is it strong enough.

The legs move around to a degree. They're not permanently attached to the stand. You can easily take the stand off and on.

Yes. However It's a little difficult as with all of the weight in the rear, it makes the bike want to tip. My bike has a sidestand which makes it possible. It's a little tricky but I do it all the time. It is easier with 2 people.

It keeps the rear tire elevated off the ground and the bike strait up. The stand is not wider than your handlebars so as long as there is room for the stand to for between the wall and sofa the bike will stand freely on the ground without touching anything else.

Bike stand can only hold so much weight. I wouldn't keep the bike in the stand to long, it may bend the plastic.

Yes, you can, but bike will stand up very high, not that it really matter if parking bike on level ground. If height annoy you, remove rubber feet, cut off even amounts of legs and replace rubber feet. Don't cut off more than an inch or too near the first bend. You still want the leg to go down, not sideways

On most bikes there are two frame rails. The stand itself goes centered under the rails with the plate that comes with the stand centered over the rails and bolted from the top down to the kickstand. Hope this is a help.

There is more than enough clearance. I rotate our cranks all the time with bike upright on the stand. Plenty of room. Nice stand too, well made & sturdy.

hi june, Not at all. The stand will support the bike, but not enough with the rider on it. Also, the wheels make contact with the stand, and does not allow for rotation.

Each side have supports that lock into the legs once extended. When setting up your stand and extending the legs, you would first unfold and extend each side. The supports swing up and slide into slot on the extended legs holding them in an upright position. Keeping them from

Mine is free standing with normally two bikes on it. It is still very stable when I remove the bottom bike and leave the top one. In fact, that is typically the arrangement.

This stand only allows a bike with no kickstand to stay upright. The tire / wheel is actually locked in place, so no peddling while the bike is in place.

The clamp that actually holds the bike in place is fine - no problems there. It's the small lower clamp - the one that supports and allows the two legs to extend and retract from the main support shaft - which is the real weak point. If you leave the stand up all the time, you're probably OK. But if you fold the stand up when not in use, or when transporting to a bike race/event, be extremely careful! That's how mine broke. I could also see the lower clamp breaking if you're working on a heavier bike, or while putting any downward pressure on your bike while working on it.

For rear vehicle access the stands need to be in the position as though you are carrying bikes. It doesn't tilt any more than that. It is understood that the bikes are off the carrier in order to access the rear portion of your vehicle.

Sure! When you get the bike, stand next to it. Raise or lower the seat till it lines up with your hip while you are standing. Secure the seat and pedal away.
