I think it's because the original post is 4.5 years old and the OP hasn't been on the forum for a few years.

I may have incorrectly guessed that chuckles78 was asking about Abba style stands. I apologise wholeheartedly to you Jac-al, and can only beg for your forgiveness.

Heres a paddock stand i made if anyone wants measurements

wouldn't trust my bicycle on that!

And why would that be?
i got the specs from pitbull

I recon that will last all of twenty seconds as you try lever the bike back onto it, fair play for having a go but that has not structural stabilty, i wouldnt even risk trying to use it.

Well ive tested it and it works fine
its almost the same design as a pitbull
i used a friends one to compare while building it
maybe the pic doesnt do it justice

Just looks like it will bend or a weld will snap, like you say though, picture may not do it justice...
