Park Tool PCS-12.2 - Home Mechanic Bench-Mount Repair Stand Black/Blue

I upgraded to this one after purchasing the cheapest one I could find on this site. It lasted a year or so but broke with pretty light use. This is built to last. I mounted it to my workbench and have plenty of clearance. I did a fork tune up and it held the bike at a 60 degree angle with no problem. I was a little worried about the clearance issues, but I have about 2 between my pedal and the edge of my workbench. Really happy I upgraded. Wish I would have just bought this one to begin with.

I bolted the stand to a piece of 4x6 that I can clamp in one of several vices I have. Works very well, grabs kids, road, mountain and e-bikes well. The rotate feature is well designed, and all critical parts are sturdy metal. Totally worth the investment.

Very solid yet gentle gripping vise. Seemed like over-kill until I realized how bad all the bikes around here actually are, and this thing is a life saver. No more sitting on the concrete. Due to limited garage space, my work bench is only 6 inches wide from front to back. This mounts perfectly. Glad I bought it.

Very easy to use and extremely well made. Smooth action and nice finish. Clamped to my bench top with two clamps so its easy to remove when not in use.

Bike stand that doesnt need a lot of space. Very affordable compared to Park Tool’s full size bike stand. Very stable and will hold ebikes. Easy to assemble. Price should include screws for mounting.

Easy to install and holds my 65 lb e-bike so easily. Strong grip and easy to clamp with one hand on the bike and one hand on the handle. To install, I needed 4 lag bolts (not included, but I have a bunch lying around). I am so glad I invested in this.

This thing is awesome. Hold bikes in any direction, won’t let go. Don’t skip on the good stuff, Park Tool is the best for a reason….

You get what you pay for. Reviews of other bicycle repair stands seemed to harp on issues of durability and especially plastic parts. I have a heavy E-bike and didnt want to buy a tool twice. My (mountain biking) daughter recognized the Park Tool logo on the delivered packaging and got excited-with reason. The expectation of a really solid piece of equipment has been met. To be sure there is plastic in the jaw clamp, only to cushion the hold on the bike frame, and handles, and even the rotation locking piece, but that gets compressed into place like an oversized cone-shaped washer, and shouldnt face any stress that would break it, even holding up a 48# bike. The steel parts are industrial quality-absolutely no play or bend. Frankly, I was more worried about my workbench than the repair stand. Very EZ/intuitive to set up-really no instructions necessary. It does need to be mounted where the pedals get free play underneath.

I used it to install my studded tires on my Ebike. It also makes a good storage hanger.

Super solid and perfect for my adjustable bench.
