The REI Member Dividend
The REI dividend is a unique benefit of membership in the REI co-op. It's comprised of your member refund—typically 10% back on eligible purchases—and/or your REI Visa® card rebates.
Each March, active REI members and REI Visa cardholders who earned a rebate receive a refund in the form of an annual dividend notice.
Only active members receive annual dividend notices. To maintain your active status as an REI member, you need to make net merchandise or shipping purchases of at least $10 per year, unless you joined that year. Member numbers are issued in one name and only that person receives the member refund. Your number can be used by others in your family, but it cannot be transferred to someone else.

Comments about Feedback Ultimate Sport Mechanic Repair Stand:
Love the versatility of height adjustments, 360 degree rotation and ability to change the clamp angle for seatposts, frame, etc. Is very stable and easy to clamp the bike down.
Is a little bulky and heavy for easy traveling but folds down nicely so the travel bag may help with ease of taking it on the road. Have to tighten the spin knob pretty tight to keep the front wheel from moving up and down when really putting force on the bike (this is the clamp that holds the arm in place, not the bike so tightening it down does no harm to the bike).
Overall, a great stand.

Comments about Feedback Ultimate Sport Mechanic Repair Stand:
I do most of my own bike maintenance and I've been using an Ultimate repair stand for years. It's design and manufacturing are high quality, and it works great. Highly recommended over cheaper inferior products. This is one case where you get what you pay for and maybe then some.

Comments about Feedback Ultimate Sport Mechanic Repair Stand:
I got the Ultimate repair stand for me [...] in 2004, and it has gone through many bike repairs in and out of my Garage. The wifes bike is small, I have a large, and the Ultimate can adjust to any size bike for repairs and/or washings. It has always been a reliable and routinely used equipment in my collection of tools.

Comments about Feedback Ultimate Sport Mechanic Repair Stand:
Used 3+ yrs to tune/maintain mountain bikes practically every weekend. As a Park Tool advocate, this stand is more BALANCED, sturdy, and cheaper than Park's low-end stands. Too heavy to be truly portable, however, it folds and fits in my 2-seater convertible! [...]

Comments about Feedback Ultimate Sport Mechanic Repair Stand:
This is the bast stand I've ever used. It works great for all my bikes, mountain, road, hybrid, even my antique cruisers. Absolutely stable, won't fall over. Definitely worth the extra cash!.

Comments about Feedback Ultimate Sport Mechanic Repair Stand:
This stand works great and is a great value, especially when you can find it on sale or use a coupon. I initially bought a bottom bracket support stand (from another store) but it wouldn't work with most of my bikes, either they would rock on the under BB cable guides or it would rub. FWIW most of my bikes are mid-80's - 90's vintage, they may work fine for your bike but this one works great with anything I could think off (with the possible exception of an Allsop Beam bike/no seatpost). The more expensive ones are lighter and the clamps are easier to close one-handed but this stand is a great value for a non-pro user.

This stand has completely exceeded my expectations. This has to be the best value in a shop stand, and the portability and ease of setup are fantastic. Plus, it's small enough when folded to toss in the back of the Jeep for road trips.

Comments about Feedback Ultimate Sport Mechanic Repair Stand:
The heavy weight is good as this stand is very stable. The only drawback is that the knob for securing the arm needs to be tightened very hard to prevent arm rotation. Even with tightening hard, the bike can rotate if you put even a light vertical force on the bike. Also, the height clamp does not prevent rotation well. I would have expected a more positive clamping means for both problem areas.

Comments about Feedback Ultimate Sport Mechanic Repair Stand:
Very easy to set up and use and is strong and durable enough to work on just about any bike and weight. 360 degree motion as well as fully adjustable height make is idea for working on the bike for a while. Folds down to an incredibly compact size, which is critical in my very small house[...]

Comments about Feedback Ultimate Sport Mechanic Repair Stand:
I use this stand both at home and on at remote repairs. When on the road, it travels on a bike trailer along with the tools. Folded, the stand is a little longer than the trailer and causes some issues with banging around. The extra length though, allows easier access to the bike than that of the lighter, more compact version of the same stand.
