    Looking at a basic Park Tools one, any recommendations for a sub-ton (£100) stand?

    Cheers

    I've had a Minoura W3000 workstand with tool tray for a few years & it's pretty decent. Not used any others though.

    the one in decathlon for about £50 is good value, its pretty sturdy.

    I've got a Park Tool PCS9 – about £90. Totally solid and looks like it will last forever

    Hijack, sorry. I've got the Decathlon one, and after about 18 months use it's starting to slip when holding the bike. Thinking of relegating it to a washing stand, and getting a new un for work.

    If I was to spend more like £150 would I notice a real improvement? I don't want to get another 'budget' stand and fing myself replacing it again in another 18 months.

    Thanks all,

    Alex

    I have a cheapy minoura, its ok. A mate has an Ultimate Pro Elite which i covet, it's much more stable. >£200 though.

    If you can stretch to another £20 i recommend the PCS-10it folds away neat and tidy and is solid as a rock will defo last for years and years. Its adjustable to whatever position you could need I am 6'2" and dont need to stoop its lifts my bike up high enough for me.

    I got my Park stand from Merlin on offer and it is a godsend to achy bending over backs for long periods.

    Get one!

    Will you be using it on flat/hard surface, or garden/grass/lumpy grass?

    I went for this Tacx T3025 Spider Professional Workstand.

    Sorry not sub ~£100 but tripod design, and very sturdy, especially outside

    This one is fantastic value for money and a lot sturdier than it looks in the pic.

    Wouldn't be without it now 🙂

    How about this one from Decathlon. £49.99

    It looked quite solid in the shop, I don't think that it folds so it might suit someone with a bit more space.
