I just want to get me a trade workstand like the Kestrel stand that most shops use. Beautiful stands that cost an arm and a leg but will survive a nuclear bomb!
bought an ultimate from aspire. anodized bling with a cool arm. i love it, though more expensive now due to the dollar. i also didnt get hit with duty.
iv got one of the x-tools/chainreaction type ones, on long term loan from the lbs (cheers mark ), sturdy enough to install raceface diabolus cranks with, which are notoriously stubborn to fit.they get the thumbs up from me!
ive also used the park-9 stand aswell, thats very sturdy, the vise is very good, does up very tightly if you need aswell. its harder to fold up quickly tho...
