Abstract
A support for a bicycle having at least one wheel includes a pair of axially spaced apart base members, and a pair of laterally spaced apart support members which extend upwardly from and which are interconnected with the base members. The bicycle wheel is adapted for placement between the support members, which are configured to support the bicycle in an upright position. Engagement of the bicycle wheel with the base members prevents the bicycle wheel from rolling, to maintain the bicycle in engagement with the support. A variable position engagement arrangement is provided between at least one of the support members and the base members, to enable adjustment in the lateral spacing between the support members so as to accommodate different wheel widths. The support members may be formed of pivotably interconnected sections, which enable the support to be moved between an extended position for use and a collapsed position for shipment, transport or storage.
