My brother sent me this link to a new bike stand developed in Oz.

Call that a hoist!!!!

The tyres are barely off the ground

Now that IS good.

Bolt it to your garage floor and add some locking device for the bike and you've got a stand, stable working platform and secure parking all in one !

Got to be worth a bit of serious DIY

..... and are they thinking of making a smaller version for mopeds and scooters ?

...... I'm thinking the "Mini Ripperton"
