Stand for washing

Hi,
I got a schwinn 26" mens ranger mountain bike. I want to buy a stand that I can use for Washing as well as for some maintainence work.
Do you recommend buying this one : Ibera Easy Utility Bicycle Stand IB-ST2
https://www.amazon.com/Ibera-Utility-...rds=bike+stand

Thanks,
Sunray

No specific recommendation (your link is DNF) any Bike repair stand should hold the bike up while you scrub..


Since its better to remove the wheels ... something to support the chain while you take out the rear wheel will help .

It will work ok, but it will be a hassle and you will probably just stop using it after awhile.
I recommend just buying a good stand from the start that will last the rest of your life.

A good solid portable work stand is the way to go. I use mine for repairs... and regular washings. A good work stand and some good tools are a real bonus when cycling.
