A quickie kludge adaptor for using the Minoura RSX work stand with a bike that use a narrow front hub, such as Dahons.
This stand is very stable and I like the fact that it doesn't depend on clamping frame tubes. Picked it up on sale at Bike Nashbar for $60.00, delivered. The L brackets had to be re-drilled to fit the mounting point on the stand, as the original holes in the bracket are offset and the wrong size. The tube is a cut down sprinkler nipple.
