Works nicely with my vintage Cannondale SR500.
Needs a redesign.
Most conventional bicycle work stands are designed to clamp on the seat tube. This arrangement allows for work on virtually any part of the bike. This stand uses a hook to capture of the down tube while providing support for the bottom bracket. It doesn't completely stabilize the bicycle, requiring that that one wheel balances half the bicycle while the bipod Flash Stand balances the other half. This arrangement prevents work on the fork or the front wheel. Moreover, the stand is quite unstable if it is resting on a soft surface and the feet can't dig into a solid layer. One such surface that is a problematic is a protective towel over carpeting. I haven't tested it on uneven ground, but probably wouldn't be very stable.
Considering the size and portability, the design is solid. However, stability would be improved if the feet were farther away from vertical (i.e. more acute angle to the ground). Also, a significantly larger and heavier design would increase stability but, of course, reduce portability.
At 1/6th the cost of home work stands or 1/20th the cost of a shop work stand, this product is a good value, especially at Amazon prices (28 dollars in July 2011). Despite the limitations compared to larger stands the Flash Stand is an excellent product for those home mechanics that are cash and space constrained.
Pro
Compact
Inexpensive
Cons
Should have feet at steeper angle
Could be larger for additional stability
Doesn't allow for front fork repairs
The problem with this stand is that you can't lock any of the folding parts after you unfold them! The parts then flop about as you're trying to lift the bike up on the stand. The support legs are particularly troublesome, because they tend to fold up when you're trying to put the bike on top of them!
If there's a trick to using the stand, it's not obvious and not mentioned anywhere in the instructions.
I threw the device aside for the moment. Having the fold-up feature wasn't critical, so I bought something that was easier to use and worked.
