    I've had Pitbull, Handy, T-Rex, etc. The best-bang-for the buck by far has been the T-Rex stands. The T-Rex stands were $140 shipped to my door for both (including a center stand). The Pitbulls were $300. The T-Rex come with 5 centerpins, the Pitbulls cost $25 each for extras and only came with one. The T-Rex had extra bracing, and had 2 caster wheels on each leg, instead of just one. I use my T-rex more often than the Pitbulls. Now the exception is on the SSS on the Ducatis. You have to get the Pitbull for those.

    Nothing wrong with the Pitbulls. I like them also - just don't like the price.

    I've been using Vortex stands and like them very much(the rear one mainly, the front one is sorta ). However, Pitbull does make a REALLY nice stand

    A few years back I bought Vortex and was not pleased with them (front lifting from the tree, and spooled rear)... Went back to DMP stands and love um, used Pitbull too through a former roommate very nice but not nice enough for me to spend the extra dough.
