Comments about Minoura W-3100 Bike Repair Stand with Tool Tray:
Very nicely made. The design puts the support under the weight, without a leg uselessly sticking far out the back. Assembles easily with two Allen head bolts. Upper column locks with same size Allen screw, which is used on MTB studs. (5mm?)
The tilt adjustment has a nice friction adjustment, as well as a quick release positive lock. The clamp adjusts and locks with one hand.
I will probably modify the mid-column joint at some point to add a height adjustment, but will use it a bit more to see if this is a real issue...we'll see.
One thing not mentioned in the description, nor even in the instructions is that this stand breaks down into a fairly compact L shape for storage or transport:
-Remove the upper column and tool tray.
-Insert the upper column into the _bottom_ of the lower column. (between the legs
-Fold the legs inward which will hold the upper column in place.
Thus folded, it is not as compact as most of the "portable" stands, but will allow it to fit in a car trunk, or a small closet. Can be set up in under a minute, and is sturdier than the more portable models.
Service and delivery comments:
Fast and free web order shipped to store...no hassle as usual!
