Xtech Single Sided Paddock Stand – I bought this for my new to me/old 2008 Triumph 1050 Speed Triple, with the correct pin, so all up $192 for something that nearly gives you a hernia to get the bike up and onto it. I’ve been using paddock stands front and back for over 20 years and have never had so much trouble getting a bike up with one.

Either I’m doing something wrong or simply the rear handle so to speak isn’t long enough to provide the correct fulcrum point raise the bike with ease.

Also no assemly instuctions what so ever, and as others have said you have to force the parts together, so their now marked and can’t return it.

I’ll be look at extending it somehow or other to get to to pivot correctly.

Not impressed at all.

Only had the stand for two years and the rubber on the wheels has perished. Rubbish. It’s not like the item does a lot of wheel revolutions, so there is no excuse for this failure.

Poor quality assurance process ensured my stand came with issues that make it almost impossible to assemble due to the connecting parts having extra chunks of metal and debris, including overlapping paint.
The stand bends under load and I will not be trusting my bike on this junk.

Literally the worst product I’ve ever bought, didn’t even assemble properly due to the connecting pieces rubbing on the overlap of paint. The bolts stripped when assembling, yes I was using the correct Allen key size had both metric and imperial. Threw the bike up and it basically would’ve fell over if my missed wasn’t holding it…. I had the right pin size. Anyone selling this piece of shit should get this out of their stock it’s absolute trash. First bad review of anything I’ve ever left.
