American iron


this stand doesn't see too much use anymore- the clamping power of those iron jaws would crush the stuffing out of today's carbon fiber superbikes. it does work quite well for the occasional Schwinn, however. for everyday use, there is a Park PRS-3 and a sweet old Euro-style Cinelli in the shop.

the right tool for the job. always.



dual-arm iron workstand, just like the one the Wright brothers used in their bike shop.




no problem holding an American made middleweight

this restoration is turning out nicely- just need to install the pedals, chain and the new front wheel.




no plastic reflectors.
