Bike Repair Stand Recommendations (lemmy.sdf.org)

Does anyone have a recommendation for home gamer bike repair stands? I’d like to find an inexpensive one that stows away easily or otherwise doesnt take too much space. Since I only need it maybe once or twice a year I can do without the hard core bike shop level of durability. For my needs it just needs to hold the bike off the floor so I can do derailer adjustments.

To be honest, unless you've got a heavy e-bike, any <$100 (EDIT: that's in USD. <$140 Canadian) stand should work well. E-bikes need a more robust stand capable of holding up the weight.

Most styles should fold up small for easy storage.

EDIT: I own this stand: https://www.bikehand.com/en/product-300463/Bicycle-Repair-Stand-YC-100BH.html, but also have a few others that are equally inexpensive and just as useful.
