fr499y 0 Posted November 3, 2011 ghost bikes "Black Paddock Stand" its alloy, and funny enough, bout £40. Got one myself so can deffo recommend it over the cheaper steel ones that rust and snap Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Davehutch-hutchs 0 Posted November 3, 2011 I use this one on the b-king, dont know how much it was because it was given to me , It is a moTRAX one and works well Now this one I brought as a pair from the bike show a couple of years ago , sure they where about £20 - £30 , they have on them "big black bike " dont know if you can get the different bits for them , but this one works well on the bandit hope its of some help Robbie , dont forget the bike show is only a few weeks away Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Robbie 0 Posted November 3, 2011 Cheers Boys all very helpful. Dave I was thinking about the bike show too.I would go straight for the Abba stand as it looks most stable but for the £90+ price tag its not an option. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Robbie 0 Posted November 3, 2011 Cheers Dick .Right I've just thought of another question bobbins or cups or no real difference ? I'm guessing advantage of bobbins is less chance of scratching your swingarm. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Davehutch-hutchs 0 Posted November 3, 2011 Deffo bobbins ,once your locked on to them you on ,and you can clean your swinging arm , with having both I would go for bobbin every time, but there is no choice on the bandit Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
