Feedback Sport Ultra-Lite bike stand for eMTB?

[rooftiler1]

Hiya, as the title suggest, has anyone got on of these work stands and does it work well with their eMTB?

Ultralight Bike Repair Stand - Feedback Sports

The Ultralight takes no shortcuts to achieve its feathery 10.3lb (4.7kg) total weight. It still possess the same durability and stability of our other bike work stands. With the 360° rotating Slide-Lock clamp and a wide, stable base, confidence in the security of your bike is never in question.

The spec does say....

Optimized for bikes up to 35lbs (15.9kg) to accommodate service on most road, gravel, cyclocross, and XC mountain bikes. Maximum load capacity of 75lbs (34kg)

..however I do wonder how it performs when you go beyond it's optimal load specification.

Hi,

Good bike stand, but you have to pay attention to clamp your bike in a strong place!
Sometimes horizontal top tube (especially carbon ones) are fragile, so don't clamp your ebike there.

Have A Nice Day.

I normally only clamp on the seat post. Just wasn't sure how sturdy this stand would be with the weight of a 24kg eMTB hanging from it.

It should be fine - but like all the Feedback Sports stands, pay attention to your COG and where the clamp is positioned.

You are supposed to have that in-line with the tripod leg, using the other two to support. The Ultralight can tip over pretty quickly if you aren't paying attention...

I have the black variant of this stand (sports mechanic version) looks like it has a max of 69lbs/29.5kg, and it holds my 53lb bike just fine, it sat in stand for couple weeks with wheels on/off, motor/battery in/out. You just have to be intentional where you place the legs to not be in the way and to also balance the weight of the bike or it can be tippy.

I've had it for several years.
It has been used on an eMTB, DH bike and a normal mtb. All good and working like a charm
