Unmovable

I know this is supposed to hold the front tire tight, but to this point it's getting ridiculous ... It took several minutes to get the bike out of its trap, leaving two one meter long trails on the ground.


It's the first time in 2 years this Matthys bike grad gets locked this way. It was last week, been used in and out for the whole week and haven't been able to reproduce again.

Workbench

I had been dreaming to have one since I started to work on motorcycles, but always kept the money to buy more and more bikes. A couple of weeks ago, I thought : "Hey what about a smart purchase so that you don't hurt your back at every engine swap, oil drain or brake bleed ?" ... 

So I bought nice workbench from Matthys. It's heavy but still easy to move on the garage's floor. It looks strong but only time will tell.

Loaded, ready to head back home
Let's put a no-caption then ...
 



Oh, by the way, I also came back with this nice bike grab. This is a typical Matthys product : home designed, good build quality and fairly priced product.
