Do you need to get your dirt bike off the floor or require a compact stand for field use? Then, it’s time to check out the 24MX range of bike mechanic stands for all uses and budgets. Off-road motorcycles carry no superfluous weight, so anything that doesn't earn its place is left behind. This weight loss regime even extends to stands. While you won't see a main stand on a dirt bike, some owners also remove the kickstand to give added ground clearance.
The lack of a stand is no problem for maintenance, especially with 24MX's extensive range of mechanic stands. Yet, what about in the field? Less weight has all kinds of benefits on the dirt but when it's time to get off your bike, you can't rely on finding a tree or a rock to lean it against. Thankfully 24MX has the solution with foldable and highly portable stands. These pack small, which means you can take them on the trail. As there are many types of stands, let's take a closer look at the various models available.
Scissor lift stands are a superstar in terms of features. They are specifically for the workshop. However, you can also use them in a race tent with a hard flat floor. This style of lift slides under the bike then, via a pedal, the bike is raised on an extending scissor frame operated by a hydraulic jack.
This no-nonsense style lift is the most common type of mechanic stand. It has minimal working parts, is easy to operate and represents excellent value for money. These stands work on the lever principle. So, with the stand under the frame, press down on the lever with your foot to raise the motorcycle.
A fixed bike stand is the simplest and cheapest of all bike mechanic stands. These stands provide a fixed platform for the bike. There is no lifting mechanism, so you will need to lift the bike onto the stand. Most stands either fold flat or break down into parts for easy transport.
Whether in the garage or the field, a triangle stand is the simplest way to keep a bike upright. While a triangle stand will not get the bike off the floor, it will support motorcycles without a kickstand.
If you ride off-road or on a motocross track, mud can get tightly packed underneath your bike. With the front wheel on the opposite lock, a layover stand fits into the end of the handlebars. It allows the bike to lay almost horizontally without touching the ground.
If you want to add a stand to your bike, then 24MX has the answer. High-strength, lightweight kickstands are available that bolt onto existing frame mounts.
A garage or workshop wouldn’t be complete without a garage stool. Moreover, collection tanks that fit under the mechanic stand are perfect for oil changes.
