recommend a lift/stand?
« on: September 29, 2012, 04:59:18 PM »
i was wondering if someone could recommend a lift/stand to get a bit of distance between the bike and the ground, starting to become a pain in the rear to constantly bend down to work on this with my neck issues...

so can someone recommend a good solution?.. probably need something more than the 16" jacks which seem to be used for little more than taking wheels off

If your on a tight budget you can also make a ramp/stand out of some scrap lumber to get the bike up higher.
