Comments about Feedback Ultimate Pro Ultralight Repair Stand:

Very light and easy to setup. Recommend the bar clamp and tool tray accessories. A quality product. I have a Trek T2000 (41lb) that flexed the ultralight too much so I returned it and got a Ultimate Pro Elite. Much stronger and the new quick clamp would have made it worth it even if just for a single. The wasn't much heavier. I don't expect I'll ever need to purchase another stand. This is by far the best I hae used.

Comments about Feedback Ultimate Pro Ultralight Repair Stand:

I've used shop quality racks and those are pretty much bulletproof but this one is way sexier and easier to handle. It's a joy to put the bike up after a good ride to clean the crud off or when you have to do a little maintenance.

It can be a little clumsy at times when you're holding your bike and trying to tighten the clamp... but it's not that big of a deal, you deal with the same thing in a shop clamp. You just have to make sure you have your bike balanced when it's on the rack, don't take the back wheel off when you have the bike in a level position, it'll tip forward -- other than those little watchouts, it's an awesome stand.

I'm not sure what the more expensive one will give you. I thought this stand does what it needs to do and as a bonus, breaks down easily and travels well.

Comments about Feedback Ultimate Pro Ultralight Repair Stand:

First, the comments about heavy bikes above are right - but most serious bikes should be in the 20s or 30s, not 50 lbs. I can't imagine heading out to the mountains without this stand in my car...it opens easily, stores easily, has a carry bag, and I've never had a bike fall off or tip over in 12 years of using it. It still looks like new and I use it all the time. This is a great purchase and makes bike repairs much easier - especially cable adjustments and crank / BB repairs or cleaning.

Comments about Feedback Ultimate Pro Ultralight Repair Stand:

Overall it's a nice stand. The reason I came to REI.com today was to see if they sell a replacement clamp. It is that bad. While it does clamp firmly enough it is very awkward to close it while holding a bike.

Comments about Feedback Ultimate Pro Ultralight Repair Stand:

This is NOT meant for heavy bikes. I have an Electra Cruiser with a few things on it, total weight of 50 lbs. And most importantly it flexed due to the weight. It was not very stable. It made terrible creaking sounds. It is not possible to rotate a heavy bike on the stand since the weight of the bike will cause too much friction for it to spin.

The actual act of lifting a heavy bike up and holding it in the stand long enough to tighten the knobs is way more work than just flipping the bike over.

Also it is hard to find a place on the frame of an Electra to actually grip it. Granted that is mostly due to the fact that Electras have very curvy frames and cable routing on all of them, but many bikes would have similar issues.

I would imagine trying to put a tandem or an xtracycle on it would be suicide.

I think this would be great for lightweight bikes, but no way can it handle 50 lbs safely (or effectively) let alone 85 lbs. It would be a good product if it were marked that the limit was a little less than 50 lbs.

Comments about Feedback Ultimate Pro Ultralight Repair Stand:

Purchased this after reading the online reviews and speaking with the local REI bike mechanic. Very happy with the purchase. Quick setup, held my bike well. As another mentioned, it can be a little wobbly while cranking, but it's very stable overall.

Comments about Feedback Ultimate Pro Ultralight Repair Stand:

I needed just a basic repair stand for cleaning chains and light maintenance work. I bought this stand home since they had it set up in the store and I liked how stable it was.

The stand is very easy to set up but clamping the bike in place was a different story. I found the clamping mech not the easiest to use and you had to try and hold a bike in place while turning the dial to clamp in place. To remove the bike was also the same problem. The clamping mech is strong and holds the bike but it would be nice if it was easier to open and close.

After using it a number of times I decided I didn't like the clamp since it wasn't user friendly and I returned the stand. I picked up the Ultimate Pro Elite stand which has a much better clamping system. The Pro Elite is worth the price difference.
