Reas Fitting Propstands

[martinf14]

Hi,
Does anyone know of any rear fitting propstands, and also whether they will fit to bike with QR rear wheel. The Bike is a Giant Rincon.

I know a fair bit about cycling, but I'm not sure what a "propstand" is, or what a "QR" rear wheel is. Can you elaborate?

Are you asking about a trainer? If so, it won't work that well with a mountain bike, unless you put slicks on it.

Hi,
Propstand is a bike stand, but a rear fitting type. QR is Quick Release.

Gotcha. What are you looking for the rear stand to do? Just hold the bike up (for maintenance, for example)? If so, the Quickstand from performance may be good. It's not as expensive as a repair stand.

I guess the question is, what do you need the rear stand for?
