Default Looking for a front stand.

so yeah, im looking to buy a front wheel stand for my bike and was curious to see whats a relatively cheaper stand to buy and sturdy... im in school and dont have too much cash so i dont really want to pay 100+ for a front stand... i saw one on amazon, believe it was a venom model for like 43$ but idk seemed kinda weak.

any suggestions ?

I bought a red one from Amazon. Not fantastic, but does the job. I think it was 30-40 bucks.

Most likely. However, was just offering the OP the low cost option he requested.

i have the track side rear stand, works as intended. you should be able to add some spacers or something where it bolts the top on either one if one is shorter to raise it up.

I have the trackside rear stand, I don't have a need for front ones as of right now but I like the rear stand so far. Worth the $44 price!

i found a rear stand at store near me called harbor freight, purchased one for $25, its solid and very stable, iv left the bike up on it for 3 weeks at one point. just looking for a front stand to service the front wheel/ store so no flat spots on the tires over the winter.
