first off the stand is 13# and will support a 80# bike at 6'!
It folds up rather small so that it takes up little room.
It's jaws are replaceable.
The clamp force is only 1.1# for every 1# of force that you give it. (Someone else's clamp CAN give 7:1 force which might harm some frames or seatposts. (Always clamp on seatpost, to avoid damaging a nice frame)
The red triangle button is pretty slick, hit it and the jaws POP open.
The have another slick feature, the jaw has a clutch head, place the bike up in the clamp, SLIDE the jaw shut, tighten and you're good to go.
