    Picked this up for Mrs V's bike, made by Cotstand.

    Whilst I think it's a top gift, she didn't seem too impressed.

    Looks nice that Dave, if only you had put a ribbon around it, I reckon you'd have pulled it off then :)

    Thnaks Mart, from what I've breifly looked at it's a simple case of adjusting the adaptor on the stand? appear to pivot?

    It's the threaded bolt at the top of the lever/hinge bit if that makes sense, do a bit at a time though as I over did mine first time and bent the bolt lol
    Just a thread at a time (surprising the difference in such little adjustment)

    Women can be strange creatures. Maybe, as Remal said, paint it red and clean the chain for her too whilst it's lifted. I'd be your valentine with a gift like that.
