Lidl Workstands

[Cyclezee]

Just been down to my local Lidl and had decided to by two of them, one for a spare.
By the time I was leaving at 8.10 and having bought some food items, only 2 of the 10 on display were left Selling like hot cakes.

I expect they sell out by the end of the day, so if anyone really wants one and missed out, they can have my spare for the price I paid for it. Collection only

The best stuff is often sold out by 5pm, I get down after work to find that all the stuff in my size has gone.

Thanks for the heads up I had forgotten about this!

The workstand is excellent value for money. I have had my Forza and FreeGo Eagle on it already and they were quite secure and made maintainance much easier
I clamped both bikes by the downtube as both these bikes cables running under the crossbar.

Excellent value for money indeed ! Only 2 left when I went this morning !

I can "suspend" my Brompton at about the center point of 50% weight distribution, but it is clear that the clamp is taking the strain when the bike moves (you can see the ABS plastic twisting). With gentle use, I am sure this stand will last forever though, as it feels strongly-built indeed, using a combination of steel and good-quality plastics.

At 30 GBP...Bargain !

I've missed out on this stand. After trying three different Lidls, all after 11:00 am, every one said that they had sold out just after opening time.

Thanks for the picture. Now I know what I am missing. I'm not sure that Mrs T would be at all please if I brought the bike within 5 metres of the house, let alone inside it!

Sorry to hear that you missed the unmissable bargain of the century... ... (I'm sure there will be other opportunities though)

As for the bike-in-the-house thing...yeah, I get evil wifey eyes from time to time, but we have no garage so you gotta do what'ya gotta do

Both stores in Milton Keynes are now sold out. A friend of mine (fellow Scot) went looking this morning and struck out. Question is how much do I charge him for my spare

Tillson, happy to try a few local stores for you if you want to pick one up from me (norbury s/w london) Maybe someone nearer to you could have a look?

Another 5 GBP discount is possible, by purchasing a 40p copy of the Daily Star (vouchers inside) !! Seriously.

Thank eddieo, that's a very kind offer. I'm a bit to far away to collect it though. I'm sure they will come around again in the future.

My local LIDL has the updated version of the stand I bought some time ago. The main difference is quick-release fasteners, to replace the basic "screw on" design. I have been using the stand without any problems, great piece of kit for the price! Dan
