1. Pitbull Forward Handle Rear Stand
I used one of these for years. A couple of years ago, I sold my street bike to focus on dirt. So I sold my stands. Big mistake. Now I have another street bike, and I needed stands. But with my earlier experience with this stand, there was no doubt what to buy. It's easy to get the bike on the stand, since I can stand next to it and hold the handlebar with one hand while jockeying the stand into place with the other. Yeah, I'm not completely uncoordinated, and I can hold up the bike while using a conventional rear stand, but this is so much easier. Standing next to the bike, I have so much leverage that there is zero chance of dropping the bike. It's a very well-designed stand.
And quality? It's a Pitbull. Almost nothing short of a nuclear weapon can damage these things. They're overbuilt. I have 100% confidence in the strength of the stand. It works well, too, with good leverage to lift the bike. Finally, the quality is obvious. The welds are clean, everything is nicely finished, etc. This is the best rear stand available, in my opinion.
