Make a Custom Bike Stand

Here is a bike stand project that can stand up any bike, because it is very easy to change the size.

My tire is 2" wide, (Although it doesn't look like it in the picture.) So I added a 1/4 inch.

The height of my stand is about 3/4 the length of my tire, and 1/2 the height.

I have 3" x 1/2" Pine boards to use.

Number 1 is the first board, and the one that holds the horizontal (2,3,4,5) boards together. It is 3" by, in my case, 2 1/4".

Numbers 2 and 3 are the boards that are keeping the tire from turning left and right. They are both 3" by 1/2 the diameter of your tire. (About 10")

Number 4 goes on the other end of numbers 2 and 3 to keep them from bending outward. In my case it is 3 1/4" because it needs to overlap numbers 2 and 3.

Number 5 keeps the stand from tipping sideways. should be about 15-20" long.

Numbers 8 and 9 are on top of number 5 in the picture, they hold the upright supports on. they should be 1/4 the height of your tire.

Numbers 6 and 7 are the upright suports. they should be bigger than the others by about 2", in my case 7".

With 1" screws, Screw number 1 onto the end of number 2. Do the same with 3 on the opposite side.

As shown in picture 3, screw numbers 4 and 5 onto the bottom of 2 and 3.

Next step, I don't want these too confusing!

Screw numbers 8 and 9 onto the end with the longer support, (#5) also the side with piece number 1.

Finally, screw the upright supports onto the insides of 8 and 9. then you are done!

Now you can park your bike somewhere and save those grips from getting shredded!
