Exclamation bike stands. yes i searched but

I only found like 4 good threads on stands for the f3. I heard some good and bad reviews on biketek stands. For the price they are a decent deal. But do you guys that use them have a hard time putting your stands on? I don't want my bike to fall over while putting these on. I don't want to be cheap but at the same time I can't afford steel horse fabrication stands like I wanted. I can afford a rear stand but not a front at the moment. Im a little worried of the biketek front stand however but it seems to work for the members here. Any info and input on the stands would be great.

Brandon

Standing up the bike on the stand is easy, just a bit awkward at first cause you're holding the bike straight from the back while raising it up... it's 2 stepped

1- hold bike straight
2- press down on stand

as long as you press down on the stand in 1 fluid motion, not too fast and not too slow you'll be ok.

Once you get the hang of putting the bike up on stands by yourself. You're going to think why did I think it was so hard. My track bike hasn't had a kickstand for almost 2 years now.
