Bicycle repair stands – safe and back-friendly maintenance
Whether for repairs or regular maintenance on the bicycle, a repair stand is a valuable tool for all cyclists.Working on a bottom bracket, changing a bike chain or adjusting a drivetrain – a bicycle repair stand simplifies all repairs and maintenance.Thanks to the stand, you can put your bike in a more convenient position for repair.The stand holds the bike securely in a set position, so that you have both hands free to work.

Which repair stand for which bicycle?
Which repair stand is suitable for which bike depends mainly on the weight of the bike.This means you can use almost any repair stand for a lightweight road bike.Most stands can also hold somewhat heavier mountain bikes or Enduro bikes as well.But with a more stable stand, you'll be safer when working on a mountain bike.Caution should be exercised when using a repair stand with an e-bike:E-bikes easily weigh over 20 kg, so you should note the weight limit when choosing a stand.Lateral stability is also important in this case, to ensure that the e-bike does not tip over while mounted in the stand.
Better maintenance with a repair stand
Height adjustability & swivel
Many stands are height adjustable and can be set to your height, so you can work comfortably with all tools.Depending on which bike components you’re working on, you can adjust it to a comfortable height for the repairs and protect your back and joints while keeping your body upright.In addition to height adjustability, some repair stands are equipped with a swivel.With this, you can place the bike on the stand in the exact position you need for maintenance.
