As an avid cyclist, finding the right repair stand is essential for maintaining my bikes. The Feedback Sports Ultralight Bike Repair Stand exceeded my expectations in every aspect.Firstly, the portability of this stand is unparalleled. Weighing in at just under 10 pounds, it's incredibly easy to transport, whether to the trailhead or on a cycling trip. Yet, despite its lightweight design, it doesn't compromise on stability. The sturdy tripod base ensures a solid foundation, even on uneven terrain.Setting up the stand is a breeze, thanks to its intuitive design and quick-release clamp. Adjusting the height and angle is effortless, allowing for comfortable access to every part of the bike during repairs or maintenance. The 360-degree rotation feature is a game-changer, making it simple to maneuver the bike into the perfect position for any task.Durability is another standout feature of this repair stand. Constructed from high-quality materials, it feels robust and reliable, capable of withstanding the rigors of regular use. The anodized finish not only looks sleek but also adds an extra layer of protection against corrosion.Overall, the Feedback Sports Ultralight Bike Repair Stand is a must-have for any cyclist serious about maintaining their bikes. Its combination of portability, stability, and durability make it an indispensable tool in my workshop, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to fellow riders.

before i get to the details, my overall opinion of this unit is that is exceptional--beautifully constructed from quality materials and well designed--i'm pretty sure one or more of the folks who designed this stand is actually a bike mechanic.the features i wanted in a bike repair stand: (i) ultra-portable: not that i expected to be moving it around but i did want to be able to quickly and easily fold it up so that it takes up almost no room; more than that though, since i would be using in our garage, it had to be so simple to set up and break down that i could do so every time i needed to use it; (ii) very light, ideally less than about 5 kg; and (iii) professional quality--ie, rock solid and will easily hold any bike i own without damaging it.so there are much cheaper bike repair stands (BRS) out there, but none that satisfied the three criteria above. This Feedback Sports rig does indeed do what i wanted: portable: it takes about 60 seconds to collapse the entire unit into a single cylinder, not higher than 1 metre (when folded it looks like one of those portable tripods that pro photographers carry with them in strapped rucksack) (two quick-release levers); in the same amount of time you can set up the rig. Second, it weights about 11 pounds--indeed ultralight given its function. Third, this unit looks more or less the same as the ones used in my neighborhood bike shop--ie once it's set up, it doesn't look like a "home" unit; indeed it looks like a commercial-grade rig. The heaviest bike i own weighs a little over 12 kg (~27 pounds); the spec for this unit says it can hold bikes up to 85 pounds, so any bike i'll put on this stand will be well under the max spec.

It works well for my mountain bikes. It's easy to set up and break down, it's stable with fairly wide legs, and it's good looking.My only complaint is the clamp assembly that holds the bike's frame in the stand. It might be better for a lighter bike, but for a heavier bike like a mountain bike, I think the clamp in some of the other stands, like the Sport Mechanic Bike Stand might be easier to use. However it's not abig enough objection to make me return the stand, though I suspect that someday I may order a different clamp.

Most of the frustration in the reviews of similar products is the number of pieces and the time it takes to put together. This one comes fully assembled and is well built. Well, worth the extra money.

I also added a Silca Hirobel frame clamp to use with the stand. Perfect together to support a carbon fiber frame so you don't clamp directly to the bike frame.

Considered buying this vs the Park Tool PCS-9 and PCS-10. Here are my thoughts.Feedback Sports Pro Ultralight:- 170$ approx, 10.6 lbs, made in taiwan- quick release tabs on extension tubes and folds up easily- feels solid and sturdy, tubes are thicker and bigger than the picture suggest- solid clamp mechanism, i believe still plastic connector, but feels very solidPark Tool PCS-9:- 140$ approx, 23 lbs, made in china- no quick release on extension tubes- heavier, harder to use, harder to setup and take downPark Tool PCS-10:- 180$ approx, 25 lbs, made in china- quick release on extension tubes- heavier- large plastic clamp armIn summary, for the price, it is lighter and better than the similarly priced park tool PCS-10. I'm sure if you spend even more money you can get a high quality stand, but this works for my occasional hobbyist type jobs. I would still recommend the Park Tool HBH-2 Handle Bar Holder. This is key to work with the front wheel easily.I will update as I use this over time. I imagine it will hold up for many years though.
