Decent stand hooks.

Evening all, who makes decent matching stand hooks? I've had three different sets from three different suppliers turn up and none of them match. After the 1st two were sent back I got a set from MB thinking that'll be the end of it but alas no they are also rubbish. The holes are either drilled at different heights or the bend radius are different. Only a small thing I know but I want decent parts for my money not tat. Any pointers to some decent ones would be great. Cheers Pete.

I got some off corrado which have a bit on where you can padlock the stand, fitted fine.

Spoken to MB and they are sending me out another set. Great service from MB as usual.

I make sure that I match them up before sending them out.

That reminds me that I must work out the perfect sized padlock for those. If you use one with too big a loop the stand will still fold to a degree. ?:

I've now received the replacement hooks from MB and they are spot on. Very unusual for them to send out duff gear but they have now sorted it out and I'm more than happy.

I noticed that with mine but it is useful for chaining to lampposts and chaining your helmet to anyway 8-)
