Does anyone here have one, or know someone to comment on its quality/value?

looks to be fairly good with a light weight dirt bike but it may be a strugle with something heavyier like a baggie, i made my own with a simple frame work & swivel top no efort to get the bike up at all :D

that looks pretty cool, bonus points for the DIY..

i wanted to get a stand to be able to work on my front wheel, so i was shopping around for a stand that would lift both wheels off the ground, and found Ogio.. got a gift card from work worth 100$ and itching to order it :)

they do look fairly good ive not seen one like it before, would be good if you could try your bike on it before you buy though are they expensive?
but if you have a voucher to spend then go for it :lol: .
i can lift my front end or rear or both depending on how i position the stand .

i got one of these a few months back for a friend with back problems, and it didnt play well with the 125sm.
the coolant hose on the front of the engine gets snagged during the rolling motion.
if you have a mud guard installed it might work as described.

it still works to put it on, by tilting the bike to the side and propping on the stand sideways, but for that you can use any ~$50 stand.

thanks for the heads up, but i already ordered it :)
i only ended up paying $9 out of pocket after the gift card so its not that bad.
plus i plan to get the mud guard for it anyway.

will post back when i get it.
