As the top tier repair stand offering from Feedback Sports, the Pro Elite Stand offers some great features that will make DIY bike repair more enjoyable even if you have no idea what your doing.

Constructed of 2.6” anodized aluminum, the stand has a very well built feel. Nicely designed quick-release levers with wide, easy to push-on levers allow the height and open-tripod style legs on the stand to be setup and adjusted quickly.

 Feedback’s patented clamp system allows for easy one-handed bike loading. Place the seatpost between the clamp and a quick sliding motion shuts the clamp while a large, three armed dial allows the clamp to be tightened to a desired tension. When finished a quick-disengage button allows the bike to be removed from the stand quickly and comfortably, even with a forty pound downhill bike.

Adjustability is a key component of a quality work stand and the Pro Elite adjusts in almost any way imaginable. Height is adjustable from 42-71” while the stand clamp can spin a full 360 degrees to place the bike in any position necessary.

 Transporting the Pro Elite stand is quick and simple; breakdown is as simple as releasing two quick-release clamps allowing the stand to fold down to 5”x8”x46”. At 12 pounds the stand is easily toted around to events or riding vacations with little extra hassle. Our test stand has survived many weekends of desert sand and mountain rain and is still the go to stand on a daily basis. This thing is really built to last.

The Pro Elite Stand is a lasting, gratifying piece of equipment, making a quick derailleur adjust or chain cleaning a painless task. Retailing at $240 the Pro Elite stand is on the high end of the consumer repair stand market, but with exceptional quality and top-notch features it is an investment that will keep you and your bike happy for many years.
