+1 for Feedback Sports. I'd consider paying more for the beefier red one instead. I've been using an older version of this one for about 10 years, and my dad has the OLD version (labeled Ultimate Supports, before Feedback was spun off into its own brand) which he uses to this day for weekly road bike maintenance. It's as sturdy as it was the day he bought it, which must have been close to 20 years ago.
Whichever one you buy, you might find yourself using it for decades, so it might be worth spending a little more on the sturdier model.
I am likely in the minority here, but I absolutely abhor Park stands (like the PCS-9, I do use their PRS 2.2-1).
Anyways, if it can pay for itself, I would strongly suggest a Feedback Sports Pro Elite. One of my favorite features is the ratcheting clamp, I can squeeze it hand tight on carbon if I am doing SAG and just need to get the bike off the ground quickly for a drivetrain tweak. I have never had a single issue with this stand and mine is 3 years old this fall.
For a budget version of this stand, the Spindoctor Pro G3 is a serious workhorse but really not for bikes over 35lbs. We have one of these in the shop that is going on 5 years old and everything on it still works perfectly- and if you have ever been around a bike co-op, you know shit gets destroyed pretty regularly.
Good luck finding the right stand for you!
Feedback was formerly known as Ultimate Support; the company has been around for a while and the stands are great. You can probably find more reviews on the Ultimate version via google. There are also a dozen or so reviews on Amazon
I really like that particular clamp; it's difficult to over-tighten to the point where you might crush a carbon component (like a seat-post) and the push button release makes it easy to get the bikes out.
The only complaint I have about any of the elite stands is the hardwear that allows the legs to fan out and the column to telescope can be a bit finicky, if you try to adjust it goes from loose to too tight very quickly, the sweet spot can be hard to find.
Other than that, I usually grab one of these from our shop when I do race support.
