Subject: [CR]Looking forard to the Cirque: a word about bike stands

A few guys have asked about bike stands and I compliled this list... Not recommending any one place to buy them, I just used Google to find illustrations of what I was talking about:

Here are a bunch...

The Ultimate: http://www.ultimatesupport.com/s.nl/it.A/id.935/.f http://www.ultimatesupport.com/s.nl/it.A/id.3275/.f

Minoura makes a bunch of cool stands. Here are two variations.

Saris: http://ebay.com/<blah>

Willworx Super stand (We use these in the shop and they are really solid and stable) http://www.willworx.com/products.html

These triathlon style work well too: http://www.bonthronebikes.co.uk/477-19735

The Grandstand: http://www.jensonusa.com/store/product/RA409A05-Sports+Solutions+Grandstand+Bike+Stand.aspx

There are vintage Cinelli & other Italian stands out there too.

What DOESN't work well are those stand that hook under the bb and around the downtube.. They fall over easily.
