Bike stand for 2.6 MTB tyres
- Thread starter Deus
- Start date
I made one out of CLS timber (I think 63x38 but might have other sizes as well) and a few screws.
I am lucky enough to have a 255mm mitre saw which makes short work of cutting and angles.
If I wanted to use it for washing as well as a dry stand, I'd put a few layers of varnish or other waterproof treatment on it.
This is what I made:
Could do with being slightly wider - the bike needs to be pretty straight in. Also, some of that timber is biggern than 63x38.
It holds the front wheel very securely.
I had no idea how well it would work - just created out of near-scrap pieces. I am sure anyone could make improvements to it.

I’ve got one with two hooks that hook into the rear triangle But the best accessory I’ve added to my mtb , also a Cube, is a prop stand.
Same thing here..I made a stand out of old timber even though I have one of those big metal repair stands I got from LIDL.
Mines a bit different in that it supports the bike by it's bottom bracket, that means I can run the motor and turn the back wheel. Amusingly I can set the display to cruise twist the throttle and just let it run on it's own, that's probably got a use but I just do it for the heck of it.

Cruise control is like a weird shaped tool, it's got it's uses but only rarely. There are times when it's come in handy as I like to use a throttle a lot I must admit.
