Ratchet axle stands
#1
Anyone use them? I know they are quite popular and I've used them before round other peoples. I've recently bought these ones - http://www.sgs-engineering.com/jsr2-axle-stands 

Got 4 stands and a low profile jack for £70 inc postage which I was pretty happy with. 

I know they've been designed for the purpose and theres a lifetime warranty, but it does bug me that all the weight must be going through a ~4mm roll pin in the cam. This doesn't seem much compared to my ~8mm solid pin in my normal stands.

The extra safety pin that these stands have doesn't link in with the ratchet as much as I expected, I've emailed them about it and just need to send them a pic.
