Bike stand question
Has anybody ever heard of T-rex or DMP bike stands? They are at a reasonable price and look to be built of a pretty good quality. If yall can give me your two cents on these it would be appreciated.
Here are links to them.
Here is the DMP:

Re: Bike stand question
the trex rear stand doesn't look too bad. i would never use that style of front stand though. i never was a fan of the front stands that let the forks just rest on them. even an axle level pin stand is better than that, and the tree level pin stands are LOADS better, and add to that that with them you can pull the forks out if need be, and they're on a whole different playing field. the stands that go under the forks only let you take off the wheel, not the forks, and even then, they're kinda shaky.

I had the DMP rear stand for bikes with spools. It worked great and was very reasonably priced. It was very sturdy, unlike other cheaper stands I've seen.

Re: Bike stand question
Yea I know pitbull and vortex are of the best quality for sure, but I don't have the money right now to afford front and back stands from them so I was hoping for a cheaper yet still good quality alternative.

Re: Bike stand question
I missed the part about the price in the link being for both of them
what the heck do people use them for all the time though? I bought mine for taking the rims off to get tires changed...have used it once now
