  1. On this thread: http://snipurl.com/eso4, I wondered aloud whether
    anybody knew where I could get an oak, 1-bike freestanding bike stand.

    It turns out, they're available from these people: Conde Rack. The
    particular model I'm getting is: http://snipurl.com/eso7

    Suitable for most living rooms, I'd say....

    i was looking at some racks at mec in toronto with
    a bud. one was a park. when i flexed it, we both
    said at the same time "kinda flimsy". if i were to
    build one, it would be strong and sturdy. the only
    problem i can see is finding the clamp part. the rest
    of these stands isn't worth much more than scrap
    metal.

    I'd stop sending them if you'd stop doing push-ups.

    The rack Neil was citing is a display stand instead of a workstand.

    You could just buy Park's best clamp and fabricate your own stand or
    mount it on a wall or bench.

    MEC generally only stocks Park's consumer grade tools and can't order
    for you the professional grade stuff that Park also makes.
