I have two work stands, a conventional clamp type, which is used on the steel bike, and a Tacx one that secures the front or rear drop outs and supports under the bb for the carbon bike. The latter relies on qr’s to secure the dropouts. What does the committee recommend for through axle frames (such as the Trek Domane I’ll be building up soon!)?
Hmmm, a bit of googling shows that the latest version (it’s a “spider team”) comes with adapters for thru axles, but the beam part is now triangular in section, and my older model is rectangular.
Edit: Looks like a new stand will be required unless I want to use the clamp type on the seatmast
which I’ve never liked to do.
