🔧 PCS-12.2 Park Tool Home Mechanic Bench-Mount Repair Stand - Black/Blue (Enhanced SEO) Review

Very easy to use and very well made. Smooth action and a beautiful ending. Attaches to the table top with two clips so it can be easily removed when not in use.

Easy to install and holds my 65lb e-bike so easily. Strong grip and easy clamping with one hand on the bike and one hand on the handle. For the assembly I needed 4 anchor bolts (not included in the kit, but there was a bunch lying around). I'm so glad I invested in it.

I screwed the stand into a 4x6 piece that I can clamp in one of the few vise grips I have. Works very well, grips kids, road, mountain and e-bikes well. The swivel function is well thought out and all the important parts are made of durable metal. Totally worth the investment.

Unless you're a professional mechanic servicing multiple bikes a day, this Park Tool stand is more than enough for the home mechanic's needs. It has a wide range of articulation and clamping and sits very firmly on my desk top. About half the price of the "Pro" models.

If you use this vise to clamp the seat tube be careful because if the frame moves down during use (the vise moves to the top tube) , you will not be able to disengage the cam handle as the cam handle will hit the top tube. The jaws of the clamp must be longer to maintain clearance for cam handle rotation.

This is a well made piece of equipment; it adjusts to different positions depending on the limited space and should work great in all scenarios. You can mount this repair stand on a bench or on a freestanding pedestal if you prefer, or maybe some other way. My bike shop recommended this brand to me and I'm very glad I have it and in my case it attaches easily to my garage work table.

The product is very strong and stable, very easy to assemble, but there are no mounting screws. You want lagging quarter inch screws and in my case I needed something 2 1/4" long that would go through my 2" workbench and I could attach it on the other side with a washer and screw. I haven't had a chance to test and see if it can actually handle a larger profile on my electric bike, but it handles 65 pounds with ease. I think it took me about five minutes to assemble everything and start…

You get what you pay for. Reviews of other bike repair stands seemed to address durability issues and plastic parts in particular. I have a heavy e-bike and didn't want to buy a tool twice. My daughter (mountain biker) recognized the Park Tool logo on the packaging she received and loved it - and with good reason. The expectation of a really reliable device was justified. While there is plastic in the jaw clamp just to cushion the hold of the bike frame, handlebars, and even the turnstile, it…
