Lock Block Assembly for repair stand clamp: Park Tool

Hello,

I'm trying to build a bike repair stand. The final part I need is the Lock Block Assembly - this part allows the clamp to rotate 360 degrees and then be locked into place. I have attached the Park Tool spec sheet. The assembly includes parts 3 through 9 on the attached diagram. I would greatly appreciate any help.

Thanks,

John

Hi John, welcome to bikeforums. I have that assembly and have a bike hanging on it right now. A little confused about your question, my apologies. Are you trying to source just the parts for a custom built stand?

it's a friction grip of the machined surface of the clamp arm ..

Of Course there are other ways to get that function..

Our co-op has a stand that is welded together. The upright post supports a steel tube about 2” in diameter. Inside that tube is another steel tube, approximately 1-3/4” in diameter, that can rotate and slide in and out. The inner steel tube has a vise grip welded to its end, which has wide jaws that clamp the bike. To hold the inner tube in place, a hole was drilled in the top of the outer tube, and a large thick nut was welded above the hole. A bolt with a t-handle can be screwed into the hole to hold the inner tube in place.

I have had a folding stand for years .. the rotation clamp is 2 flat discs holding a thick piece of leather between them.
originally, it was a rubber piece, but 30 years later I had to replace it
1 disc fixed to the stand, base, the other to the clamping head..
long threaded 'carriage bolt' (button head , locks in a square hole to not rotate )

a big wingnut provides the clamping force gripping my disk of leather.

Hi, Yes, I'm just looking to source the part. Thanks for the lead on Worldwide Cyclery. Very helpful and much cheaper than Park Tool and shipping is free!

Please keep posting.
When you get your post count to ten you can post pictures. I would like to see your stand when completed.
