At Bikegoo we like to try out our products as much as we can to get an idea of the quality, reliability and functionality of the things we sell. Occasionally we stumble accross something which is really worth a special mention...
THE PRO ELITE
So, is this the best workstand in the world... maybe. Is this the best portable workstand in the world... almost certainly. What are we talking about? Its the one and only Ultimate Support / Feedback Sports Pro Elite workstand.
We started using one of these some time back for both workshop use and use out at events and its just plain excellent. Its stable, its solid and for a portable stand it has hardly any flex when holding even the heaviest bikes.
Its construction is excellent. A super sturdy base with tough quick release clamps that allow you adjust the height of the stand and the spread of the base. Its got a wonderfully attractive red finish and up at the top its got the best clamp you'll find on a workstand anywhere. Fully rotatable meaning you can position a bike in pretty much any position through 360 degrees and this stand will hold it in place by locking itself in position.
The clamp itself is a ratcheting type meaning you hold your bike between the jaws and push the clamp closed. Then turn the knob on the front to tighten it up that last bit. Super fast. Then to release the bike, hit the red release button on the top and the clamp pops open immediately.
Its superb design and functionality has meant that its a favourite for loads of the top bike brands and race teams. Brands like Shimano, Specialized, Trek, SRAM, Maxxis and so on all use the Pro Elite at their outdoor events.
These stands are sometimes difficult to comeby in the UK but we've taken delivery of loads of them and at £219.95 we are amongst the cheapest out there... so if you fancy treating yourself to a bit of bike maintenance luxury click here.
Cheers
