I'm a poor sole who doesn't own a garage to work on the bike, I have a small outbuilding but you can't do much in there, it barely fits the bike.
I did recently build some nice decking in the back garden and there is a bit of wall next to it where I'm thinking I could mount some kind of clamp on the wall to make it easier to work on the bike outside? I'd prefer this to a cheap bike stand as I don't have much storage space unless they fold up really small?
the question I'm asking is does anyone know of anywhere that sells a cheap clamp mechanism (for seatpost) which I can attach to a stone wall which will allow me to work on the bike outside.
cheers
does it need to clamp?
Why not just a set of ladder holders?
thanks. I was thinking it would move around etc as I worked on it if it wasn't clamped properly?
Ideally I'd like a very basic version of something like this:

but obviously no where near that price! Ideally with a hinge so I can leave it flat to the wall when not in use.
Something like this?
yep spot on, literally just came across that too.
cheers for the help everyone, this should do the trick nicely.
Brungle, i have one of those, i got two wall brackets with mine so you could put two up one on the deck and one in the coalshed door
I also have one of the above clamps and can vouch for how good they are. Used mine with a myriad of bikes with no problems. The extra plate(mine is indoors) is a godsend when it's pissing it down outside too.
