Here's mine, it's a PRS-6 that I bought in 1990 or 91. I've heavily modified it over the years, but the basic rack has never given me a lick of trouble. The plastic pads are still in good shape because I always use a rag to protect the bicycle. Some fun custom features are:
• Threaded to fit a pipe bell reducer and pipe extension to bring it up to 5'5" tall.
• A 40# cast-iron base liberated long ago from some forgotten escapade of my yoot.
• A custom wooden handle to replace the cruddy blue plastic junk. I think I did that during covid
• The tiny crescent shaped blue plastic tool tray was extended with particle board, supported by an old stem.
• An insert in the bottom of a tool box drawer holds the head while the rest of the rack minus the base hangs on the wall. The base tucks under the toolboxes out of the way.

• The spring-loaded head will clamp a carbon seat post or seat tube without harm as long as it's not too 'aero'. Gotta be gentle, though.

This is a feather I made for my hoonigan bike - cut from an old inner tube, it used to have colorful fuzzy stuff wired onto the top but that's long gone.

Saved for when my Park arrives. Given that I have only one good hand I'm sure mods of some sort will be in order.

Every Friday night and some Saturday nights I would pull the chain off (missing link) and soak in Berrymans in the ultrasonic cleaner. I would pull the rear wheel off and pull the rear stack. They also went into the ultrasonic cleaner. A little spray and brush for the rest of the gear train. Sometimes remove the crank and soak the front chain ring.

Lube the chain and wipe down. Reassemble the gear stack. Re-install rear wheel and chain, back in business with perfect cleaning.

Every week, Bill? You are one clean freak. That's good, I like a quiet bike. That's a quiet bike on someone else riding next or around me. I ride mine until I hear sound coming from the chain then its off to get more oil on it, quick wipe down and go riding. I do change chain once or twice a year especially the 11 spd chain. They are so thin and light now. Everything else get washed and cleaned once every three to four months.

Now kids, this is a serious professional work stand.

If you're willing to listen to someone who's been in the bike biz since Ronald Reagan was President.

Haven't you seen you post here for a bit?


Also sold under Ultimate Bicycle Stand in their early days? I had one for 20 years now and still working flawlessly. A tool tray is rigged up to keep me from getting on all fours with a flashlight looking for the dropped bolt that are usually the size of a termite.

I would have done but the Park arrived yesterday. Thanks anyway.
