Good for infrequent repair work
By M. Wasserman
I went with this stand strictly because of price and I trust Park Tools products. The clamp works great.You have to use a hex key to lengthen and shorten the vertical tube as advertised, which can be a bit of a hassle if you are constantly using and storing the stand. it wobbles if you are abusing the pedals of the bike, but I never fear the stand will topple over. for a shop mechanic or someone who will get hours and hours of use from a repair stand, you might want to upgrade to a sturdier stand.It is a pain to store. the bracket on the bottom that holds the vertical tube to the legs slides up and down when u release the button. however, when you try to raise the bracket the legs just fall on the hinge. there is nothing holding them in place. if you put pressure on the stand when the legs are open, sometimes they get pinched in the bracket and stay in position when picking it up off the ground or sliding the bracket up. otherwise everytime u want to put the stand away, you raise the bracket, the legs flop down to vertical.the other issue is, once you release the button and slide the bracket up, there is nothing keeping it up by the clamp. there should be another button up top to clip the bracket into place so you can carry the stand without the bracket falling and the legs flopping around.for those, like me, who are just going to take it out once or twice a month to do some minor repair, lubrication, or cleaning, its great. For the price, it is worth taking the 2-3 minutes trying to put the stand away with all the flopping and sliding. once its up, its great!

A solid repair
By G. Petersen
The Park PCS-9 Stand is solid, simple and well built. It holds my bike solidly in whatever position I need and has enough adjustability to accommodate whatever position I need. I bought the handle bar holder after reading another customers review and was glad I did. The combination does everthing I need at a reasonable price. I have only been using it for a few weeks, so I don't know how it will hold up. However, my initial impressions are good and I believe it is made to last. Note, when not in use, the legs "dangle" freely. If you plan to move it around a lot, you will want to use a strap to secure them. Its a minor inconvenience considering the price.

Park PCS9 Home Repair Stand Good Buy
By Hugh bicycle blogger
The Park PCS9 stand is great. I have only had mine a week and it is alreadymaking my bicycle repair work much easier. I would recommend getting a handle-bar stabilizer to hold front wheel in the straight position. They start at about $15.00. I have been using a Velcro strap and it is not working all that well. Ride Safe!
