Simple and effectiveJun 22, 2010 This bike repair stand is easy to assemble and use. I ride my bike to work most days and find this to be a great stand for the work I need to do on it.
solid standMay 13, 2010 A solid stand; only complaint is the legs that fold up will flop out if you don't pay attention how you carry it.

Good work stand for the price.Feb 07, 2010 Purchased this to keep on my apartment patio to work on my bikes. Good sturdy design, will definately hold bicycles of any weight with easy. The only complaints are that it requires allen wrenches to adjust height, and it can be extremely hard to adjust the swivel. quick release on the clamp would be nice, but the screw type is a cheaper substitute and does it's job. Reccomend if you are on a budget! Otherwise get one that is easier to adjust.

Good for infrequent repair workJan 03, 2010 I went with this stand strictly because of price and I trust Park Tools products. The clamp works great.
You have to use a hex key to lengthen and shorten the vertical tube as advertised, which can be a bit of a hassle if you are constantly using and storing the stand. it wobbles if you are abusing the pedals of the bike, but I never fear the stand will topple over. for a shop mechanic or someone who will get hours and hours of use from a repair stand, you might want to upgrade to a sturdier stand.
It is a pain to store. the bracket on the bottom that holds the vertical tube to the legs slides up and down when u release the button. however, when you try to raise the bracket the legs just fall on the hinge. there is nothing holding them in place. if you put pressure on the stand when the legs are open, sometimes they get pinched in the bracket and stay in position when picking it up off the ground or sliding the bracket up. otherwise everytime u want to put the stand away, you raise the bracket, the legs flop down to vertical.
the other issue is, once you release the button and slide the bracket up, there is nothing keeping it up by the clamp. there should be another button up top to clip the bracket into place so you can carry the stand without the bracket falling and the legs flopping around.
for those, like me, who are just going to take it out once or twice a month to do some minor repair, lubrication, or cleaning, its great. For the price, it is worth taking the 2-3 minutes trying to put the stand away with all the flopping and sliding. once its up, its great!
