I have used a Feedback Sports Sport Mechanic stand for a few years now, and just moved it to my mountain house for use up there. I bought the Pro-Ultralight to replace it at home base. The Sport Mechanic is nice, but the Pro-Ultralight is definitely a step up, with the key difference being an improved clamping system.
Bought this stand to work on my full carbon mtb. The stand is solid and sets up fast. The quick release clamps on the telescoping poles are smooth and there is no fear of the stand collapsing until you're ready to take it down.
I clamp the bike by the seat post. The clamp system works well just be certain to snug down the clamp arm a little extra or the bike will dip while on the stand.
I had built my own workstand on the garage bench and it was less than satisfactory as I couldn't easily access both sides of the bike. I got this stand as it was light, strong, easy to set up and use and folds down for easy storage. It really makes a difference on how easy it is not wo work on my bike.
This is a very well made product. Very stable and simple to adjust. The best thing is that it is simple to fold up and easy to travel with. I would recommend the optional carry bag. This makes repairs and maintenance so much easier, I wish I had gotten a stand years ago.
