Nope, sorry.
You need something similar to this stand but for some reason the shop in Italy does not sell them anymore :unsure:

Cheers ? can you rotate cranks whilst it's on there?
I'm running Miranda 152 cranks on my 2017 Levo, these result in a slightly wider Q-factor than stock, meaning that the pedals foul the sides of the stand. And unfortunately the seller won't accept returns - PM me if you're interested in a deal!

Although it's in a different price league (about £80), I think the FJM stainless steel stand FJM Custom Bike Stands looks the business. Being single-sided, you can rotate the opposite side crank without any restriction

I tried my Levo on the FJM stand at their workshop a few months ago found too flimsy for the weight of an e bike . Nicely made but really only for non E bike. Made my own in the end , basic but functional.

Which model did you try? The Mk1 or 2 like Will’s? As I like the look of it a lot

I made this stand for my Altitude, which has a bolt up axle. It's supported on a 5mm stainless bar with a plastic spacer each side.

Hi, sorry if this is a dumb question............. but when using these through crank stands i presume they use a 8mm steel pin, so when turning the cranks (for chain lubing etc) its turning metal on metal. (Pic attached is the FJM one, where you get a pin option when buying)

Or am i missing something!?

@Dougygiro Nope, that seems about right.. as I could hear the metal on metal when trying out my new one. The shaft did come with a 'bushing' ala the top fitting (for HT2 cranks) but it wasn't going to fit into my 2019 Levo crank, maybe it fit into the earlier Levo's?

I was a little concerned about the metal on metal when I first heard it ,but for the amount it will be used like that, I can't see it doing any damage. The ability to wash the bike standing up with a rear wheel free to turn, is so useful, I can live with this 'issue'

Perhaps a quick shot of dry lube would suffice and not attract grit later. Nice stand.
