Tools and Hardware Reviews of Racor PBS-2R Two-Bike Floor Bike StandCustomer Review: does NOT fit 27" road bike tires. Summary: 2 StarsAfter reading some reviews on Amazon, I ordered the PBS-2R stand for my two road bikes. It came in a giant box mostly full of packing paper. I set it up, and was pleased with the quality and sturdiness of the unit. The assembly was easy, especially after various other negative reviews of the unit (perhaps quality control has gotten better?).
I went to put my old road bike (27") front tire into the unit, and... it doesn't fit. The tire won't seat into the rack and sit stably on the ground. Instead the front top hits the top of the rack opening, and the tire is a full two inches off the ground, meaning the bike is unstable and the rim torqued.
This rack probably works fine for kids bikes, for 26" tires on mountain bikes (without disc brakes), and maybe other bikes, but a 27" tire WILL NOT sit in the rack with the tire on the ground. This needs to be made clear in the Amazon.com description of the unit.
Unfortunately, mine is headed back to the post office and back to Amazon.
