Looking for a perspex rod
 
I'd like to start taking more serious bike photos and in googling around, it seems that a perspex rod is often used to prop the bike up for the photo.

Anyone have any suggestions on where to look/purchase one? Thank you.

Look in McMaster-Carr Supply. In their Raw Materials section, they have clear multipurpose plastic in any shape

  1. solid transparent plastic made of polymethyl methacrylate (the same material as Plexiglas or Lucite).
search using Acrylic name as a generic, rather than specific (UK?) brand name?

Acrylic rod @ Amazon

What size you would need, dunno. Probably 3/8" or bigger. I think 1/4" would want to flex too much.
