The Park is a good value and solid. I have an Ultimate from many years ago -- Resembles the Feedback Sports and folds smaller and is lighter than the Park. But it does cost more. The Feedback tool tray is a significant accessory to add to the package. Being able to change height and rotate your

I have an older version of this stand. It collapses down into a bag so it is easy to store. It is stable and you can definitely clamp the seat post with it. If you have the Grant approved fistful of seat post you may need to raise the saddle a bit to fit the clamp.
