T-Rex stands

LoD575 · September 9th, 2011, 10:44 PM

My order of T-rex stands came in today. Love arriving home from work and finding a box by my door.

Brought inside to begin assembly and took some pics along the way. Cat needed to investigate.

Packaging was excellent

Assembly was straight forward. I ordered the triple tree setup which also came with fork lift adapters as well

After adjusting the triple adjuster up one hole the setup works great with clearance on the front

Putting the bike onto stands and taking it down really takes no effort at all.
So far my impressions are good of the product. Did not find any flaws in the coating or bolt hole alignment.

On tuesday i should have a similar box at my doorstep

LoD575 · September 9th, 2011, 11:24 PM

This is the set I ordered t-rex-racing

Glad you like them. They scream quality. FYI, if you wash the bike on those stands, shake the water out of them. The outside is super nicely coated but it's still metal. The water inside will rust the pipe from the inside and the next time you move the stand, the water will leak out leaving a rust colored stain on the floor.

Is there any difference between the stands marked S or V on their site?

And someone said the stands come with spools, but I see them as an extra on their site, do they ask you the type and size or just give you something generic that might not fit?

I want to add these to my Christmas list so I won't be the one ordering so I want to make sure they send the right stuff when a non-rider orders.

LoD575 · September 12th, 2011, 03:17 PM

S and V are for different handles, its a matter of what you like.

The spools are part of a sale going on as stated on the main page. On checkout I had to specify what bike I was going to use the stands for so spools would be the correct size.

Lou · September 15th, 2011, 02:17 PM

Well got my stands yesterday. After putting it together i noticed a couple of things.
First off, Tripple tree stand dint come with as much padding as Steve's did. Mine only has a bit of padding on the tude that holds the pin and its only a strip.
Second, I ordered the red and my paint has several spots that have the paint rubbed out, already showing metal

one spot is bad and the others is me being picky but hey its brand new!!!
I like the stand very firm looks real good but im going to call and give'm an ear full LOL

Lou · October 19th, 2011, 02:49 PM

Talked to a rep from Trex and they were very helpfull.

End result-
Asked if i would like $XX amount of money as a discount for the damage.
Told them i was not interested in the $ and just wanted the o rings, said they would happily send them to my addres.

Would recommend, great service and people, great stand .

greatwhiteninja · October 19th, 2011, 03:25 PM

massacremasses · October 19th, 2011, 03:59 PM

LoD575 · October 19th, 2011, 04:11 PM

My set of stands are holding up great so far.

massacremasses · October 19th, 2011, 04:19 PM

greatwhiteninja · October 19th, 2011, 04:21 PM

when i was in cycle gear a few weeks back, they had a set of black stands ( dont know the name ) that were like $50 a pc! front/rear.. that was a awesome deal IMO considering when i needed my stand all they had was the $150 pitbull stands..loL!

THE BIG SITT · October 25th, 2011, 12:39 PM

I also have one helluva time getting the bike on the stand. It seems like the forks (don't know what to call the parts that actually touch the bike) are too wide… any suggestions on what I can do?

gadgetguy1288 · November 2nd, 2011, 06:29 PM

I got my T-rex rear stand when I ordered their Frame Sliders. So far I love it. When i decide its time to buy a front stand I will go back to them for it.

C L · November 10th, 2011, 11:55 PM

I have a t-rex rear stand and I leave my bike up on it whenever its in the garage.
The arm extensions are starting to warp... anyone else have this problem?
