Anyone using one of these stands? I saw a video today and the thing looks simple enough I can fabricate it myself.
To the guys that own one how do you like the unit?

RE: Abba frame stand

I have a Heindl Engineering pivot stand which works the same way.
Good stand. SAFEST solo lift without question.
Leaves no compression on the rear suspension which I consider to be a plus for storage but if you want to adjust the chain it will not do. The centeral location makes the bike lift without leverage working against you. The bike is nearly balnced on the swingarm pivot like a teeter totter. Slight drawback is that the centra;l location of the stand puts it right underneath the engine where it is in the way when you are laying on the floor working under the bike. Thatt's not so much of a drawback. I always recomend the Heindl. The Abba looks even easier. I'd get one. Make your own if you have the time and tools.

The Bursig stand is also a nice design- it will lift both wheels off the ground and has rollers to easily move it around (so does the Abba if you have the skills to build their accessories as well- it's all in their YouTube vids).
It's set up here to lift only the rear, but can be adjusted to lift the front as well (just ignore the laundry in the background...):
