I did not know that. Hmmm. Oh and Jamez, they lift from the bottom of the forks most of them and to remove the wheel you don't take the forks off, you take the axle out which the stand has nothing to do with. You take off the caliper by pulling out the caliper bolts and slide it off the rotor. Then you take your socket(motion pro has a good universal one) and loosen up axle. Then you loosen up the bolts at the end of the forks to release the tension on the axle, then slide that damn thing out and the wheel drops. Repeat for installation.
