So, if I'm just going to get a bike stand I can use for the other traditional bikes (of which my family has 6) why go for the $500 one? Wouldn't one of the lighter ones in the mid-range and $100 cheaper be better for most people (including me)?
A good bike stand is more helpful than you can imagine if you really get into doing you own work, so get a good one, if you can find one that people recommend at $100 super, but consider going a bit more if needed....buy once

I got a park similar to this years ago and have been happy $250 https://www.amazon.com/Park-Tool-Uni...097DZ9XRG&th=1
