I researched stands for hours before finding this. Thank goodness I did.
I was looking at stands and disliking most of what I saw in that overpriced space. These arrived and they’re well-priced, effective, and incredibly well made. And I can take them with me in a back pack and not have to toss a stand in a trunk. Thank you for making these.

If you need one, what are your choices?
My e-bike has a shifter and an electronic push pad, and a little bell, that all stick up higher than the handlebar grips. If I get a flat I’d scrach up all of that trying to work on it while turned over. With that said, the bike stands will easily twist over, if pushed (fore or aft). So consider this a road-side repair tool – not a shop tool. If you need it, what are you going to do – carry 2x4s with you?

Not much to complain about.
A little expensive, but seemingly well constructed. Probably partially so expensive due to the niche nature of the product as the manufacturer likely doesnt produce these in giant batches.They put magnets in the sides of the legs so that when you mate them by intersecting the legs of each one together the magnets hold them in place.The length of each holder is actually half the length listed in the product dimensions table, so the info listed in the manufacturer’s info graphics is correct.Ive used them a few times now and they worked great to prevent my light mount/brakes/shifters from getting marred.Just be careful when placing the bike upside down that you are gentle as you could potentially snap a leg if you put the bike down forcefully.I recommend using with a brake bleed block if you need to take your wheel off and have hydraulic brakes, so that the brake pistons dont close up and make the pads hug the rotor once you put the wheel back on.Once the wheel is back on, you can also recenter the pistons by loosening the bolts used to mount the caliper and then fully squeeze the brake lever and tighten the bolts while still squeezing the brake lever. The lever should make the calipers center around the rotor so it doesnt rub on one side.

The most useful bike trip tool I own
It’s difficult to beat a functional repair stand that fits in your pocket, weighs virtually nothing and is well designed and made. This it’s brand new and already saved an entire mountain biking trip by letting me replace a tube in 5 minutes on a trail. Can’t recommend enough.

Really handy tool
I have some heavy ebikes that are a pain to get on a stand. This product works wonders for repairs and maintenance. Really innovative and easy to use.

great for e-bikes
These really do work. Now I can service my e-bike easily. When I first got the jacks, I worried about the fact they are not made of metal. But no problem. I was able to turn my bike over as shown in the video for this product. Then needed to adjust a bit. Once adjusted to the correct angle, I was able to service my bike and didn’t worry about scratching or breaking any of the things on the handlebars. These are essential for a long trip and a flat tire!

It solved a problem, but its a bit less stable than I hoped
After getting a flat on my ebike, I was faced with how I would be servicing the 80lb bike. These are one of the cheapest options to allow me to flip the ebike to rest the handlebars on the floor without scraping anything. In theory these are great, in practice they work but are a bit flimsy and shift a lot when trying to get the bike to not move while working on the bike. Pulling the straps as tight as possible before velcroing them to the handgrips still doesn’t keep them from wanting to rotate around the grip, and leads to the bike wanting to tip over. Much care is required (and strength) to get the bike stable. The tripod legs should be wider I think. I was able to get them to work in the end but its no where near as stable as I had hoped.

Good To Have
Bought these stands for my 90lb Ebike which has a lot of gear attached to the handlebars. Turning this big bike upside down is a bit of a challenge, but once it’s settled on the stands it’s very stable. The design makes it strong in all the needed places. That is to say that weight pushing directly down on the stands is very sturdy and stable, but if you are a little rough opening and closing the tripod legs I could see how they may crack or break as others have mentioned. But overall this item is very helpful when working on the bike in the garage, driveway, the side of the road, or off-road. Their small size make them easy to take along in my mobile tool bag.

A must have to support your handle bars off the ground used on electric bike kept everything off the ground very stable

A composite jack great for roadside repair. My E-bike weighs 35kg & these jacks hold the bike well, functional & don’t take up much room in the pannier bag
Bigz –
At first, I thought that these were just a gimmick. I decided to purchase them and try them out. Man,I was surprised! They are super easy and handy to use. When you are on a trail and need to do a repair, it is super easy to put on, flip over my bike and fix my flat or whatever. It was such a pain to fix a flat when you are on a trail and you have no way to keep the bike stable. These solve that problem. I highly recommend these.

I carry the Original Handlebar Jack V3 with other emergency gear in a handlebar bag (e.g. to make it easier to remove a wheel) and they are also useful for some simpler maintenance and cleaning tasks. Usage is simple: pull the two jacks apart (they are held together with a magnet), open the tripod legs, strap (upside down) to suitable points on handlebars, turn the bicycle over until the jacks and seat are on the ground. The jacks are best suited for working on the bike on reasonably level ground, but – with care – stable if the ground is not perfectly level. When work is done, turn the bicycle upright, undo the straps, close the tripod legs, and put the two halves together.

Worked great and boy did these jacks come in handy. I’m so glad I decided to have these in hand in my bike kit.
