Anyone using this stand for 16" kids bikes? does it work well? thanks

I am using the bike for a 16" kids bike that previously had training wheels. The bike does not have a kick stand so it does not stand up without leaning a handle bar on another bike.

Yes my son's bike is a 16" and it is okay... I mean, it's standing straight but not as well as for the bigger bikes. But for a family with 5 different sizes of bikes, this stand is really ideal. Hope that helps.

Yes, we have all sizes of bikes from 12" to 26", and it works for all of them. I really like it--it keeps everything a lot more organized.

There is an add on bar that you need for women's bikes, it works great. Haven't tried kids bikes though. I mostly haul my mountain bike and it's extremely sturdy on there. For really long trips I Bungy the lower frame to the trail hitch.

I dont know... the stand is kind of big and when I bought mine it was listed as for a 26 in bike so you might want to contact the seller and ask them directly...

What matters is how it performs if the bike resting on it. And be sure to use the rubber bands, which for me made a big difference in stability. And I wonder how long those bands will last. Rubber bands can deteriorate in a few years doing nothing. I guess this stand is only as good as their longevity.

This is actually a stand to work on your bike. It is pretty strong but will not go up high enough to place a bike under it.

I would like to help but I don't understand the question. As you have wrote it the answer would be 3". The kick stand fits 12"-26" Bikes it's adjustable.

I bought the Greenfield Rear mount for my kids MTB and it fit great. I also bought this kick stand from Amazon for my Novara Ponderosa: http://www.amazon.com/BV-Adjustable-Kickstand-28-Inch-Black/dp/B0030WK1BS/ref=sr_1_1?s=sporting-goods&ie=UTF8&qid=1393539204&sr=1-1&keywords=bike+kickstand and it was easy to install and adjust....worked great for my bike.

They haven't been an issue for me, but I adjusted the horizontal cross arm with the clamp on it out pretty far. I mainly did that so I can run the pedals and shift gears with the bike on the stand without the pedal on the stand side running into the vertical bar. I guess the added benefit of adjusting the bike farther away from the rack is that it keeps the stand legs out of the way also. The stand they show in the picture does not have the legs fully extended. When they are, it's a really wide base and I haven't had any issues with it wanting to tip over. I'm usually putting a MTB with 29" wheels on it so it's pretty heavy. I've also used the stand in my back yard on uneven surfaces and it's still pretty solid.

Yes i use this as everyday bike stand not just for tweaking and repairs! Go for it I hear feedback stand is a little cheaper :)

The stand is great but will only hold the bike upright with the back wheel resting on the frame...It doesn't raise the back wheel nor is it strong enough.

Yes. My bike was a 24", (too small)-however, the stand will accommodate 26" and larger bicycle.

I have used this stand on a Cannondale 700 c Adventure bike and on a Marin 700 cc. Both are different shaped frames and it worked on both. It is adjustable.

Yes it could. It would need to be adjusted to the width of the tire, but once adjusted to the width of the bike's tire, a child should be able to use it with ease. A major advantage of this product is that it can be used with any diameter wheel (whether 700c, 26inch, 20inch, etc), whereas many stands wouldn't work with a child-size bike wheel. As noted by another customer, this stand is for the bike only, not a bike with a rider on it.

I would not recommend this as a bike repair stand. The jaw could easily crush bike tubing. I cringed when I saw that photo. Get a real bike stand; it is cheaper than a new bike.

YES!!! I use this stand for my 58 pound e-bike along with my standard road and mountain bikes. Very sturdy, will hold your e-bike at any angle including vertical and upside down. This stand is rated for 100 pounds and it's very stable. If you are not working on the motor it's always a good idea to remove the battery, that would bring your e-bike working weight down closer to 50 lbs. It's not absolutely necessary though.

Not sure. Basically this keeps the bikes standing by giving a place for one of the tires to slot into. I've never had a problem with the bikes staying standing even if I bump stuff into them. But a squirmy toddler in a baby seat is going to be putting a different stress. I'd lean towards saying yes...but since a toddler's involved I'm very hesitant to promise that.

I think you will be fine. I have used it for 3 different bikes including road and trail bikes. It's a terrific stand. All I need and more.
