Hi all,
I'm looking to pick up a fork-mounted repair stand so I can learn how to better wrench my bike and clean it. My saddle is too low for a clamp-style repair stand (not enough of the seatpost to clamp), so I've focused my search on fork-mounted repair stands.
Would be great to know what fork-mounted repair stands you guys are successfully using for general maintenance / cleaning. Only complication is that my bike (QR PR3) has hidden rear brakes and I'd like to be able to work on those, but seems like it might be challenging with some of these repair stands since the bike rests on the BB.
Based on my search of Slowtwitch, it seems like these are the most recommended repair stands of this style. However, haven't really seen any discussion of working on hidden rear brakes, so wanted to check.
Thanks, all!
