Does anyone have one of these? They seem to be very good so I thought I would make one. What I need to know is the distance from the ground to the centre of the pegs that fit into the bike and the size of the square tube, can anyone help?

I know this may sound like I am being a bit tight but I would rather £120+ on other things for the bike and I have enough material lying around (I think) to do the job for more or less free.

Thanks

I have, as do others. Not at home at the moment though to measure anything fo you.
The Abba kits, the part that fits into the swingarm, these might be a little trickier to produce although you could find another way.

Ello, ello ello, what's all this about then? Copyright Police might step in on this!

You got a PM!

Thanks guys for the information, time to get the hacksaw out.

As for copyrigth infringement (patent?), mine will be much better than the original, although, come to think of it I've said that before and its not ended well!

If you made an attachment that bolted to your stand (or an Abba) that allowed the raising of the front wheel, that might be useful.

I think that when the Abba stand is reversed, the front wheel is either lifted or can be lifted more easily!
You can then use one of these to keep the front up!:

Yes, like that.

yeah, good bit of kit that! dear though

Nothing tight about it.You pay £100 plus for abba and you still have to hunt down a car jack and bodge the front wheel of the ground.About time they reduced the price as they have been around long enough.
