Ended up being $275 USD not CAD (375 CAD) including taxes and shipping.

Price is compared to $650 CAD including taxes and shipping, so it was a good deal for something I needed.

i use this https://www.bikeradar.com/gear/categ...tand-08-32015/

its quite large. but works well with my space.

still trying to figure out how to use it with my TA bikes.

picked it up second hand locally. if i had to pay MSRP. i'd probably find something more portable. But nothing ive ever used was as stable as this.

I've got a Feedback Sprint. It's good once you get past having to take off a wheel to mount the bike, and adjusting the skewer.

I have a Park PRS-9 and it's been bulletproof.

If you don’t have to move it around, I’d vote for one of the wall mounted clamps. However, mounting to a wall limits access to one side of the bike, so mount it to a 4x4 post in the middle of your shop. I’ve got a floor bolted Park shop stand and I love the solid platform and clamp, but alas the price is way higher than $150. The wall mounted version is ~$200, and is more versatile. I’ve considered getting one to mount to a ceiling mounted pivoting post so I can swing it up out of the way when not in use.

I have a question for previous owners of the older Ultimate Support repair stands who have bought a more recent Feedback Sports models. Would you consider that an improvement especially in the clamping mechanism? What other area would you think is an upgrade from the old design? And also, between the different models within Feedback Sports, the Elite, the Classic, the Mechanic - is the upcharge to the higher (and more expensive) model worth it?
