[#2030629]

Just a heads up, picked one of these up today, £29.99.

Seems good quality and sturdy.

Definitely worth a look.

Great PSA. Tell you what, if I didn't have one, I'd get one of those. Will pass the recommendation on to a few folk. cheers!

I know its a little early (considering Lidl only started selling them at 9am) but has anyone tried the stand as yet? Is it sturdy, does the clamp swivel, is it any good?
Cheers!

It's solid, fully adjustable with a swivel clamp, even has a magnetic tool tray.

Love it and very happy with purchase.

I love the token 'toolbox and bucket at the edge of the shot' thing going on there to make it look like a 'proper' workshop.

If I didn't have a half decent stand already I would be snapping one of these up. Sadly, I can guarantee you these will be on eBay for £60+ shortly.

I reckon I'll pick one of those up today.

Has anyone got any opinions on the cheap speedo ?
http://www.lidl.co.uk/cps/rde/xchg/SID-8CCD319C-CFFAE67C/lidl_uk/hs.xsl/index_14173.htm
I use a GPS for significant rides, but thought about getting two cheap speedos to leave on the bikes permanently to keep track of my total annual mileage.
Any reason why these wouldn't do the job ?

None in Irlam.

Just as well - I'm supposed to be saving money, not buying bargains.

Time to order a very expensive turbo trainer instead....

None left in Newcastle (Benwell) at lunchtime. Assistant said they all sold first thing and that people had been phoning from all over the North East to check stock.

For those in Co Durham - there was 1 left in the St Helens Auckland store at 1.30pm

I suspect Spennymoor will probably have a couple left

Was going to go tonight, but after reading the hype I went during my lunch break to a different store, managed to grab the last one! guy came in about 1 minute after me looking for one too, he looked a bit gutted when he saw me clutching the last one in a death grip.

Funnily enough I was on my way to LiDLs, when I got knocked off me bike! How heavy are the workstands? Thinking of picking up two if anyone off here isn't able to get one. Would only want postage if so. Won't bother if it's too much mind.

Anyone looked at the panniers? Thinking about getting a set for shopping duties.

dad picked me one up on his way to work at 8AM when they opened in Morecambe. 5 people cuing for the 4 stands they had in stock, a minor altercation ensued when the guy in front of my dad wanted to buy 2!

Got my workstand this morning 8 am - chunky and looks very good for the money

Bought the panniers too but seem very cheap - which it to be expected

Bought one today at another lidl store as my local one had sold 40 in the first 3 hours so i had to drive to the next town(only 8 miles away)and got the last one.
If you buy the Daily Express paper there is a voucher in there which will save you £5 when you spend over £30.
Bargain.
