I am in the search for a few bicycle stands (the type that sits on the floor and holds the rear wheel) not to work on the bike but to display it. Any recomedations? These two look good any reviews or recommedations? http://www.bikemania.biz/Saris_Wheel_Arch_Bike_Rack_p/saris_wheelarch_6012.htm

I use the Delta Rothko stands to store our bikes at home. They hold the bikes securely and a side benefit is the ability to roll the bikes around.

A downside of the Saris type stands is that when used on the rear wheel, the width of the arch on the stand can foul the rear dérailleur and can interfere with holding the bike securely.

I have tried several different kinds over the years, but keep coming back to these. The width can be adjusted for road or mountain bike tires.

Here is an ebay auction for one (I am not affiliated with this auction):
