Frame presentation

I've ordered a new frameset and I'm looking for a nice option to display the frame so I can take some decent photos of it. A wall-attached bike hanger (i.e. Cactus Tongue) does work but it doesn't allow any separation from the background and that's what I'm after really.

It proves rather difficult (read; impossible) to actually find something that looks good.

I'm okay with a BB support and fork attachment (12mm thru axle) or just a BB attachment.

Ideally, something made from wood or metal as I'm not a big fan of plastic in my images.

I found something decent on the website of Argonaut, it's not spot on but something like this or industrial in case of steel would work for me.

Any input / suggestion is more than welcome!

Is a stand preferable than a support that blends in / can be Photoshopped out? Like that:

Yeah I'd rather work with a stand I can keep in the photos as the background will probably remain industrial / factory-like. For a photo like you suggest I'd probably hang it and remove the fishing line in post.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```
Your code goes here
```
Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.

If you upload more than 5 files we will display all attachments as thumbnails.
