It does not work as a bike stand
I wasn't expecting a lot for the cost of this, but i at least expected it to work!
I tried this on 3 bikes; a Trek Pro-Caliber 9.5 MTB, an Orbea Orca road bike & a titanium all-road bike.
On each bike, the Hopper failed to keep the bike steady when placed under the BB. I had to hold the bike to turn the cranks which defeats the point of using such a support.
I would have inderstood the Ttrek not being supported (and the Orbea to an extent) as the bottom bracket shells are huge. But the all-road bike has a t47 BB which is much smaller, the Hopper still failed to support the bike.
At least i can take the plywood to the recycling centre once i've removed the rubber supports that don't
Unless i'm missing something with how the Hopper works?
