hi all could do with a cycle workstand that uses the crossbar to support the bike needs to be able to support 50lbs bike including battery.
or something that lifts the rear of bike so I can test hub/cd moter functions if need be(I mneed to adjust my rear derallier?

will have to be delivered no transport for lidl workstand so ebay or amazon Chinese robust stand will be fine

How about suspending the machine from the ceiling of your workshop,with some stout hooks and line ,hung from the bar stem and saddle, you could refine it by using pulleys, and a floor standing support ( anything to lean against ,that Chippendale chest for example).
