That's a pretty heavy bike, but I think the stand is heavy duty enough because it's all steel and all the weight is basically sitting on the bottom bracket. One thing you should know is it uses the little approximately 2" x 1" square opening I have seen kick stands mounted, and it has a T-bolt allows you to fasten the bike frame to stand just behind the bottom bracket. I hope that makes senseAlso, I would suggest drilling holes four legs and bolting the stand to four foot plywood square to stabilize it from tipping, etc. Hope this helps.

I had purchase this for my KONA Stinky six and the stand was to small and able to clamp the frame. if you have a 64lb bike you need something more steardy then this product.

Can anyone who owns this stand please tell me if you can turn the pedals 360 degrees while the bike is mounted on the stand? I'd like to use it to adjust my derailleurs. Thanks in advance for your time and help.

Yes- I have two of these stands and we use one for two 14" bikes and the other for a full size bike and a 16". On the 14" bike placement is sometime an issue but we have no trouble with the 16" bike .

It will definitely hold. This stand is much sturdier than it looks. I've used it on all of our families 5+ bikes, as well as friends bikes, all with lots of accessories, U-locks, etc. It has never been anywhere near unstable.

hi june, Not at all. The stand will support the bike, but not enough with the rider on it. Also, the wheels make contact with the stand, and does not allow for rotation.

Yes my son's bike is a 16" and it is okay... I mean, it's standing straight but not as well as for the bigger bikes. But for a family with 5 different sizes of bikes, this stand is really ideal. Hope that helps.

as others have noted, you do have to pay attention when rotating the bike to other positions. Sometimes just re-clamping the bike at a different spot in the frame can make a big difference. I suspect there are sturdier ones out there if you want to pay more. I didn't and the stand has worked just fine for me. (I'm about to overhaul my 3rd bike on it.)

Yes it will, I bought this a couple months ago and have used it extensively with all three of my bikes. This includes my heavy mt bike. This is an amazing stand, especially for the great price.

If not close to weight balance, the bike will rotate. I havent tried to prevent that, but perhaps you can. In either way, the stand is sturdy so there is no risk for it falling.

I have it on it's stand and I'm confident the stand will do what it's supposed to do. You have about 78lb spread across a width of 62 inches centered at the middle of the set so of course it will wobble if you push on it; I don't see that as a problem. What I'd be more concerned about is the display falling forward in an earthquake so I have installed restraining straps on the back tethered to the table it sits on. Relax it ain't gonna fall sideways. The only way it would not wobble is if you had two stands; one at each end.

I guess it depends on what size bike you have. Mine is 700c and it is not very stable in the stand without also using the kick stand. For smaller bikes, you shouldn't have any trouble standing the bike in it for minor maintenance. But, I don't think it will work with you sitting on the bike.

No, the stand is not designed to take the weight of the rider and bike. Only light maintenance is recommended.

I only tried kids' bikes in this -- hubby thinks bigger bikes may be a bit tight in the stand. Good luck!

I use it on my front tire and it is very stable. I have not had any issues with this stand and I use it with my road bike with thin wheels.

I have a DH bike that weighs 45lbs and the stand works great with it. Check the park tool website to see if there's a weight limit before you buy.

Why? Its designed to hold bikes horizontally. it will probably hold a 22 lb bike vertically, but you might have unexpected issues by using it outside its intended design.

Sure but the bike might be longer than the tire tray, check spec's. The carrier is built well, the basket is a little flimsy so I added supports under the basket which also helped eliminate the tilting / rocking back and forth. Very solid...

David , I feel this is a good stand and should work well, Just remember if you lift the rear, the front wheel needs to be locked and blocked so it will not slip to the right or left and will of course not roll forward off the stand. I would also try to stabilize the bike right to left considering the width, bags, guards, lights.I dropped a 19" wheel and the height of the stand allowed me to remove the wheel at a slant. good luck and be safe.
