Strengths:
well build. works great. the parts are simple to use and adjust with out tools.
Weaknesses:
A bit too simple to cost this much, should cost like $10 or less, but i have paided more for smaller even simpler build tools

Bungie cord
Bottom Line:
It works great when you need the bars to stay straight. it also works great on the car rack to stop the front tire from flopping and hitting my bumper and messing up my paint. i am glad i brought it because it works great. One its on the handles will not move not even with quite a bit of force trying to move it or when i bump it by accident.Any one with a stand or car rack can make good use of it
would get 5 value stars if it was a bit cheaper

Great piece of equipment. So quick and easy to put on and off that I now use it as a point of habbit when setting my bike on my workstand. Deffinately looks like a piece of equipment that will last. Very satisfied.

Strengths:
Does what it's supposed to do.
Weaknesses:
Overpriced for something so simple. I'm sure that with a bit of effort, you can come up with a solution that works just as well.
Bottom Line:
I'm somewhat embarrassed to admit buying this thing, but it has done its job well. It's particularly necessary if you're doing work on your disc brakes, have the oil reservoir open, and can't afford to knock your handlebars and spill any oil.

Bottom Line:
An overpriced stick to hold your handlebar steady while the bike is in the workstand, this thing works just fine. I think I bought it in a moment of weakness, but it keeps the handlebar centered (or at whatever angle I choose to set it at) and stays out of the way. A nice addition to any workstand, but hardly a necessity.
