I'm looking for a work stand. Like the majority here I'm looking for major bang from my buck, preferably < £75.
I do some Dr Bike sessions so something portable like this would be really useful but it's not essential:
TOPEAK PREPSTAND MAX WORKSTAND
When I used it I thought good things of it but reviewers suggest it's BB clamp doesn't work for all frame types e.g. fat down tubed, helical styles, many carbon types.
But it does fold to a very small size.

Minoura W-3100
The clamp seems good but I don't like the limited spread of the feet. Apparently removing a wheel off the bike can send it toppling. Also it has no height adjustment (but you can simply move the bike to the correct height).

Sealey Cycle Stand
I know Sealy make decent quality tools but there are no reviews for this at all. The web site has the feel of motor vehicle/heavy duty background which is somehow appealing in my mind? Anyone know anything about this?
It strikes me that unless you're spending a lot of cash, the lower end Park Tools are NOT all that. Any other helpful info or submissions?
