RS-1600
Compact lightweight workstand with reinforced tripod
RS-1500 was originally developed to be the lightest weight workstand in the world. Our first priority was making "2.5 kgs" happen, therefore, the stability was not enough, especially when mounting heavy bike, and it was not durable enough to do heavy jobs. So RS-1500 was only for road bikes and XC bikes actually.
RS-1600 is the modified model by replanting the much heavier tripod which was originally adopted on RS-6000 heavy-duty workstand (discontinued model). With this modification, the total durability has been increased 3 times.
The new tripod has thicker tubing and each leg is reinforced by its own sub arm.
And we added one more quick lever to lock the tripod opening.
The upper part of RS-1600 is exactly same to RS-1500. You can do the maintenance job on either side without changing your standing position. The arm is angle adjustable by changing the pin insertion hole.
Standard clamp jaws type workstand may break the sensitive frame with thin material, and it cannot clamp the aero type seat-post and monocoque carbon frame.
RS-1600 is still the considerable workstand for those special bikes.
RS-1600
Reinforced Tripod
For allowing heavy jobs
The tripod of RS-1600 is the one we adopted on RS-6000 super big workstand.
The leg length is shortened to fit RS-1600's small frame, but the durability is tremendously high because it was originally designed to accept over 30 kgs load.
The leg dimension is changed from rectangle to round, and the thickness is also increased.
In addition, the tripod base bracket design is completely different from RS-1500, and we added sub arms to support the load on each leg.
Finally, the total durability of new tripod has been increased over 3 times than RS-1500.
Tripod on RS-1600 can open/close at once. And we added one more quick lever to lock the tripod only.
Frame Support Arm
Adjustable angle and clamping position
The arm to support the front fork is angle adjustable in 3 positions (80, 85 & 90 degrees) by just changing the pin insertion point.
The pin also works to lock the arm when it's folded down.
The front fork mount is fully position adjustable along the arm to accommodate any wheel base frames. Fixing position is done by quick lever easily.
Rear End Hanger (option)
To change the bike direction
You must remove the front wheel to use RS-1500 in standard condition, so you cannot maintain the front brake because of lack of front wheel.
Rear End Hanger clamps the frame rear end instead of front fork end to switch the bike direction.
By changing the shim position, it will fit 3 different hub width (120, 130 & 135mm) without tool.

Cautions
Important Notices
- Use RS-1600 on flat and level floor or ground. Using it on slanted condition will cause falling down problem.
- Align the leg to the frame when you mount bike on. If you set the bike between the legs, it may fall down due to worse balance depending on the bike weight.
- Most job are possible on RS-1600, except the job that applies too much load onto the arm top.
