The Feedback Sports Sprint Work Stand is a portable and versatile bicycle repair stand designed to provide a stable platform for various maintenance tasks. Its primary function is to securely hold a bicycle by its fork and bottom bracket, allowing the user to work on the bike from multiple angles. The stand is engineered for ease of setup, adjustability, and portability, making it suitable for home mechanics, race events, and retail environments.
The Sprint Work Stand serves as a robust and stable platform for bicycle maintenance and repair. It holds the bicycle by its front or rear fork dropouts and supports the bottom bracket, ensuring the bike remains steady during adjustments, cleaning, or component replacement. This design allows for full access to the drivetrain, brakes, and other components without obstruction, facilitating efficient and precise work. The stand's spinning function further enhances its utility by allowing the user to rotate the bike 360 degrees, providing convenient access to all sides of the bicycle without having to reposition the stand or walk around it.
The stand is designed for quick and easy setup. The legs unfold by loosening a Leg-Fitting Quick Release, pushing down on the Leg-Fitting mechanism, and allowing the legs to swing out. Once extended, the Leg-Fitting Lock Knob is tightened to secure the legs in place, forming a stable tripod base. The beam, which holds the bike, is then unfolded by lifting it and aligning a slot with a screw, pressing open a quick release to hook it onto the beam, and finally sliding the beam towards the rear before tightening the quick release to lock it. This compact folding design makes the stand highly portable and easy to store, fitting into a heavy-duty tote bag (sold separately) for transport to race events, staging areas, or for convenient storage.
Mounting a bicycle onto the Sprint Work Stand involves securing the fork dropouts and resting the bottom bracket on a dedicated pad. The Fork Attachment Slider allows for adjustable width to accommodate various dropout sizes. For 9mm dropouts, the width can be set to 100mm, 130mm, or 135mm by adjusting spacer placement. For 15mm axles, the 9mm tube is removed. For 12mm axles, a 12mm tube is inserted. For 20mm axles, an adapter must be purchased separately. For enhanced stability, the rear wheel is placed between two wings on the stand to prevent side-to-side movement, ensuring the bike remains steady during work.
A key feature of the Sprint Work Stand is its ability to enable the bicycle to spin 360 degrees. This is achieved by loosening the Telescoping Collar Clamp and setting it to the desired working height, then loosening the Free Collar Clamp. The Free Collar is then slid directly on top of the Telescoping Collar and locked in place. Once the Telescoping Collar is released, the beam becomes free to spin, providing effortless access to all sides of the bike without the need to reposition the stand or the user. This significantly improves workflow and efficiency during maintenance tasks.
The stand features a robust tripod design that ensures stability on various surfaces, including uneven ground. The Telescoping Collar Clamp allows for height adjustments, catering to different user preferences and bike sizes. The "Secure-Lock" features, including ratchet-action closing and push-button release, ensure that the bike is held securely. The stiff tripod design is capable of supporting significant weight, making it suitable for a wide range of bicycles.
The Sprint Work Stand is designed to integrate with various Feedback Sports accessories to enhance its functionality. A Tool Tray can be easily attached to the stand, providing compartments shaped and sized to hold lubricants, cleaners, tools, brushes, rags, and even a beverage. This tray often includes a deep basin with a drain, useful for washing parts or holding larger tools and components. Tote Bags are available for convenient travel and storage of the stand, protecting the jaw mechanisms from dust and preserving the stand's finish. The Flop Stop Handlebar Holder is another useful accessory that prevents handlebars and the front wheel from moving during repairs, storage, or transport on car racks, attaching between the seat post and handlebars for added stability.
The Sprint Work Stand is built with durable materials, ensuring longevity and reliability. The robust construction is designed to withstand the rigors of frequent use in various environments. The "Secure-Lock" mechanisms are engineered for consistent performance and secure holding.
Feedback Sports provides a 1-Year Limited Warranty on the Sport-Mechanic Bicycle Repair Stand, covering manufacturing defects. This warranty is extended to the original user/purchaser. The company is committed to uncompromising product quality and offers repair or replacement at its discretion for products deemed defective under warranty provisions. Damage resulting from normal wear and tear, accidents, misuse, improper installation or operation, or unauthorized repair is not covered. For warranty claims, customers are required to obtain a Return Authorization Number and submit proof of purchase. Feedback Sports covers return shipping for warranty-covered products. If a product is deemed non-warranty, the sender will be contacted for authorization to repair and payment arrangements.
The design of the stand, particularly with the optional Tool Tray, facilitates easy cleaning. The Tool Tray's deep basin with a drain allows for convenient washing of parts, preventing mess. The overall construction is designed to be easily wiped down and maintained.
Users are advised to follow the setup instructions carefully, especially regarding the beam's position. A warning is provided against sliding the beam too far forward, as this can cause the Pivot Lock Quick Release to release, potentially leading to the bike falling. This emphasizes the importance of proper setup and adherence to safety guidelines to ensure the longevity of the stand and the safety of the bicycle.
In summary, the Feedback Sports Sprint Work Stand is a well-engineered, user-friendly, and highly functional bicycle repair stand that combines portability, stability, and versatility, making it an indispensable tool for bicycle enthusiasts and professionals alike. Its thoughtful design, ease of use, and compatibility with various accessories enhance the overall maintenance experience.
