I heard about this new company from a friend and since all my stands were either missing the rubber pads or bent like a pretzel, I decided to sack up and give it a run. They responded with multiple emails confirming my order and giving me shipping information.

I received my stand Friday as I was leaving for the shop and I am more than impressed with the build quality and overall looks of the stand. After emailing them again I found out they have pre cut colored plastic inserts now to fit behind the numbers to make them pop. I have a red set already on the way!

I know some of you guys like the trick stuff for your bikes so I thought I'd share this with you. www.factory44mx.com

I frequently use a steel folding chair as a bike stand (and I can spraypaint my name and number on the backrest).

I'm going to be purchasing one of these as well. Great people over there at Factory44

I just need to get a new bike to put on top of it first.

Well played!

That's beats my old milk crate stand with old number plate backgrounds stuck to the side Tongue

The side tray is a nice feature.

Anyone used one of those ride on Ogios?

I was impressed by the concept, haven't seen it in action but it sounds pretty cool. You just ride over it and it flips up underneath your bike.

Yup. An overturned pail was once on my bucket list. Pun intended.
