TOPEAK PREPSTAND T3X Workshop Stand

The workshop stand PrepStand T3X from TOPEAK is the ultimate solution for mechanics working on high-end bikes, ultra-light carbon frames or time trial bikes. Unlike clamp stands that can crush fragile seatposts, the T3X supports the bike at its strongest point: the bottom bracket shell.

Its design allows the bike to be rotated 360 degrees with a single gesture, ideal for moving from adjusting the drivetrain to cleaning the brakes without changing position. Its oversized aluminium structure offers perfect rigidity while remaining light enough to be transported to race venues or events.

Is it compatible with disc brake bikes? Absolutely. The kit includes all the necessary adapters for the various modern thru-axle standards used on disc road and mountain bikes.

Is it stable enough to remove a seized bottom bracket? Yes. Since the bike rests directly on its centre of gravity (the bottom bracket shell), you can apply much more lateral force than on a conventional clamp stand without risking toppling the whole thing.

Can the bike's position be adjusted (further forward or back)? Yes, the support rail is sliding, which allows you to perfectly balance the bike according to its weight and the area you are working on.

Does it damage the underside of the frame? No, the cradle is made from high-density rubber, designed to absorb vibrations and protect the paintwork from scratches.
