Bottom Line:
Great stand! I was looking for something to replace my heavy awkward Park Stand. After researching decided to give the Ultimate a shot, my wife also surprised me at Christmas.
I love the stand it fits perfectly in my car, light enough to move all around the garage, and I've used it on seat posts, top tubes, seat tubes and just about all other clampable areas. The best part is the clamp, you can add just enough force to secure the bike and not run the risk of crushing a tube.
If you have the money and need a new stand, check out Ultimate.
