  1. This video explains what I am looking for.

    I have seen them before, but don’t know what they are called or where to find one.

    You help as ever greatly appreciated.
     
  2. Perhaps a local metalwork shop would make something for you to your specification for not a lot of money?
     
  3. Certainly a possibility.
    In my imagination I see three pieces of tubing, one for the footpeg, one to the ground and one as the foot.

    How difficult is welding?
     
  4. A welders shop should be your best bet to get something made up. Call a few and send them that vid.

  5. It's a skill that I have never attempted but I wouldn't want anything to fail and the bike drop. If I was having a go myself I'd probably stick with nuts and bolts and maybe go square section?
     
  6. "I wouldn't want anything to fail and the bike drop”.

    Trying to remove that image from my head :broken_heart:
     
  7. Welding isn't particularly difficult, but does take practice...tbh I wouldn't be doing a sidestand for my first try, too much at stake, and even if you managed something that holds it would look as grotty as hell. ;)

  9. That particular one, the spigot goes into the rear axle. Andy

  10. Yes, just 3 bits of tube. Welding it would be easy if you've got the experience. Shame you're not nearer...
     
  11. How about a miniature adjustable axle stand that could take a right angled piece of tube? Just a thought?
