Park Tools are so fcking amazing, I never use anything except Park Tools. The stands are like $160 and I would also get a truing stand, but thats just personal preference.

yeah a truing stand would be nice...not sure if i feel like spending that kinda money haha...i can eyeball it pretty good...or if i need it bad just go to the shop i work part time at....
but a stand would be useful at home..whenever i do stuff at my house i just hang the bike from the basketball goal outside...haha i know....maybe i could find one used for a good price...i need to get a trainer for the winter also..
Has anybody had the clif shot blocs for electrolytes? i just started eating the strawberry ones and they are amazing...seem to really help with the ride 2. Just need to find a good protein bar that i like..

i've done the shot blox, but if you need something that doesn't cost a **** ton of money, take raisins. They're better for you, give you all the same benefits and are way cheaper

Get yourself an Ultimate bike stand. I purchased an el cheapo Performance brand bike stand and it sucked like hell!!! The thing folded in while I had my bike on it. My Ultimate is rock stable and the clamp mechanism works like charm.
What type of bike do you ride?
