Centre stand

Post by vigo »

The jubilee clip, duct tape and weld splatter stand repair from a PO has now cried for my attention. I am considering sectional reconstruction (not by me, no welder) or new/used replacement. Q.does anyone have an opinion of the new cast stands on offer in ebay? They're from India I think. I would like to buy from the club but there is a big price difference.

No aftermarket stand is available for a Lightweight. I suspect you've been looking at stands from India that are only for Heavyweight models.
