[Closed] lidl workstands

Apparently very good.

I'm mulling over buying one even though I already have a workstand.

Thinking of all the times I've done component swaps between bikes and it would've been handy to have two workstands.

Sensible idea or ridiculous decadence?

I got the aldi one a couple of weeks ago for £30, cant fault it, dont know if its the same though, I just wanted to brag!!

got one a couple of years ago.
Quite good.
Sometimes the clamps slip a bit with a heavy bike on.
Rotate around so the front wheel touches the floor if clamping on the seatpost.
Not a big issue and could be fixed by roughing up the tubes with a bit of sandpaper for extra friction.

it folds up nice and small, a good thing for my crowded garage.

chakaping - I know what you mean - especially this week for me.
Swapping things between 4 bikes!

I have one of these and I like it, buch more sturdy than the price suggests, spares are available too if you ever need them.

I got one and beefed up the clamp areas with some different bolts and jubilee clips to give the rotating clamp a bit of help.
Very good for the money and stable.

My stands clamp head fell off the top tube on Tuesday. Bike + bits hit the floor pretty hard.

I could've had the head screwed on tighter (it is now), but it seemed tight enough. There is a hole through the top tube. I'm considering drilling the plastic clamp and putting a bolt or some cable ties in there to stop it from happening again.

Bike is fine, but I lost the cover for the cable in the gear shifter.

I'm happy with it for £30, but remember to check it's all good and tight.
