T-Rex stands

For those who find the T-Rex stand difficult to use, lemme show you how it's done...



















For the record, I love my T-Rex stand and can easily operate it single handed. But I can also use it to demonstrate sweet aerial stalls.

Something is not right. I have that stand, but I have the handle installed so it pivots foward when lifting from the sprocket side. I can hold the left side of the bars with one hand, and push the handle to the floor lifting the bike with the other. Or, leave the bike on the sidestand, insert the TRex into the axel, and upright/lift the bike in one motion. I weigh 190lbs. I don't like being behind the bike while taking it off a stand with nothing else to support it. With the stands rollers out behind the bike before/after it is lifted, the bike has a lot more leverage on the stand to tip over.

Had the same problem. You need to have the handle position so the spare pin holder is facing outward or to the left of the arm ( you have it pointing down ??????? ), whether you use it along the side of the bike or behind it . The directions don't say how to mount the handle and the picture sucks. They told me they where going to change the directions??????????

My first road bike is a Duc (796) and my first stand is a T-Rex. My bike is on it right now... Love the stand and once if together correctly is easy to lift the rear. ........... the stands name reminds me of my younger day ..... saw the band T-Rex open a concert for Ted Nugent in the mid 70's ..... Lordy !

I can easily get mine up with one hand. Something is wrong there.
