Does the stand support a bike if clamped to the seat post or must it be clamped to the frame?

Hello, you may clamp it anywhere it will hold. But mainly to the Bike Frame.Thank you

Yes Steve the stand will work clamped to the seat post. I tried it on my road bike (19lb) and the stand was still stable even with the majority of the weight to one side. The wheel bar does telescope out to the front wheel when the stand is strap seat post. I was also able to turn the pedals and shift through the gears with no stability problems.

My road bike clamps fine on the seatpost. I haven't tried this with my MT bike which is considerably heavier.

I do not clamp my bikes on the seat post. I clamp them on the top bar right up close to the seat post. I think it feels sturdier and it gets the bike up higher. I hope that helps?

This is a very sturdy and well built bike stand..., but 60 lbs. may be pushing it a little. I have bikes weighing from 17 lbs. up to about 30 lbs., and it handles them just fine.

The 2 upper "prongs" are adjustable in and out and should anchor to your frame. My bike had threaded holes pre drilled that lined up with the prongs perfectly. Hope this helps.

This is actually a stand to work on your bike. It is pretty strong but will not go up high enough to place a bike under it.

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.)

You have to have the mount that hooks onto the bike. The pic that I see is the push tube which latches into the mount.

My bike is 30 pounds and the stand works very well. It is very well built so I don't think you will have problems.

I am with Brian S. on this, you will need a "Seat Post Mounted" Rack for your bike.

The stand is great but will only hold the bike upright with the back wheel resting on the frame...It doesn't raise the back wheel nor is it strong enough.

It mounts to your seat post, so if you already have a seat on your bike it will mount to the same post. If you don't have a seat post (Like, if someone stole your seat taking the post along with the seat, then you will have to buy a seat post)

Once the bike is on the stand, it's very sturdy. The only times I need to be careful is when I'm either putting the bike on or taking it off. Sometimes I need to put my foot onto one of the support legs on the floor to keep it from tipping.

yes, it attaches to the seat post stem, so you can still have a rack on your bike. I do on mine as well.

The bike will still want to tip left and right and could possibly fall. It's ment to be secured to the floor of a trailer. Personally I would recommend a wheel stand. This is great to ride into and be able to get off your bike without have to immediately secure, but yes it still requires securing.

Not sure. You would need to have a frame area with the two parallel tubes to clamp the kickstand plates to. I'm not familiar with that bike.

Unless the bike is ultra heavy it's no problem hanging it this way. The weight is actually distributed between the front wheel and to a lesser degree rear wheel from a "vector" stand pt.

I've used this stand to service/repair my own bike, as well as the bikes of several friends and family members. I haven't yet come across a bike frame that this stand's clamp will not accommodate. I hope this helps.
