Good work height and solid enough stand for most jobs. CHEAP and effective.
Thanks! Yeah I wish I was close to a co-op but I'd have to drive to San Francisco or Berkeley to donate. As soon as I can remove these cranks, I'll figure something out.
Heck yeah! I've had this bike rack sitting in my garage for years so might as well use it! Good idea on bending the end arm. I'll try that out.
