That appears to lift rear wheel only, can you lift whole bike?

Leverage lift

Thanks for looking
The answer is yes the bike is amazingly balanced and secure
to get the front wheel off the ground it would take little effort to pick up the front end up and place a block of wood under the front of the engine I will include a pic with this tomorrow.
The way this works is you place my stand and angle it tword the rear tire,
put pins in through my bracket into your frame, place the other flat bar into and through the slots in tbe c channel hold handle bars walk up the flat bar and it picks up the rear of the bike with ease. Now slide the bar half way through the both slots You may have to rock the bike slightly for the bar to slide through but it works great, and you have a stable cross platform any questions 732-552-1312

Here's another thing I meant to do for awhile.... over a year.....

I can't find the second part of the project (the actual bracket all done) but you'll get the idea of what I did.

Hi Rook someone else did something like that but with that you cant walk around the bike and the jacks wheels are narrow woth my contraprion the u channel is wide and the flat bar creats a cross preventing the bike from going forward or back and it stores in a 3 by 14 " space. I just went out in the garage and lifted the front wheel up enough to change the wheel and put a small wood block to prop it up.

why not just buy one of these there brilliant.Stick a block of wood under the front of the engine and you can strip out both wheels ,forks ect.I know because i do it every year.

and here it is in use.

The stick looks great

If you notice instead of the removable lever my sesign stays attached and slides in the slot to secure and stabilize the bike so it is more secure and out of the way

It does on this one as well.I pull it off so i dont trip over the thing.I know they are ready available in the uk but im now not so sure if they are available in the states.Anderson stands make them as well but they are in australia. If you do your own spannering they are a must.
