I need a workstand for bike maintenance and the like and I've got £100 to spend, what would you recommend?

Cheers Nick, the Minoura one's at Merlin look pretty good. Anyone got one of these?

I bought this a few months ago after a fair bit of research and I'm well pleased with it. Use it to hold a full carbon Scott and a Trek 1 series.

I see what your saying sampras38, but I don't need all those tools to be honest! I think I have the same set branded as something else though.

The tools are optional.

I've got this one, also from Merlin:

Though mine was from Halfords, £50 at the time. Very nice it is, strong and stable, bit bulky though and useless on uneven ground, but it lives in the garage so it doesn't matter. The clamp is really good, strong but easily adjusted, and very controlled clamping.

Sorry, I should have said, the tools are extra and I only have the stand..;-)
