Great Stand
Unlike clamp-based stands, this one clamps the front fork and supports the bottom bracket. Almost all high-end frames nowadays are carbon, and even lightweight seat posts are fragile enough so that I’m not comfortable clamping them. The other great thing about this stand is the bench is designed to catch grease and liquids, so when you clean or lube your bike you can wipe up quickly and neatly. It also puts the bike’s drive train right at working level. I can sit on a bar stool and use the truing stand to true wheels or adjust the dérailleurs without getting my lazy butt off the stool. The stand is very stable, and it folds so you can take it with you to events. I was going to buy a Park with a heavy aluminum plate, but am really glad i got this instead. The only thing it doesn’t do is make me faster.

Love Park Tools, but this is cheaply made
I have a full bike shop of park tools and almost all of them are worth the money. Not so much with this table. This is fine if you need a light duty portable table, but itâs about 3x too expensive for what it is. The blow mold plastic top isnât going to last and assembly is janky at best. You snap the legs into plastic and clip straps on each side.Disassembly is popping the legs out of the plastic recessed channel on the underside. Itâs one of those things that after repeated assembly and disassembly will almost certainly reduce the tightness of the table. Guess thatâs what those straps are for.Somehow Park made a table even lower quality than a plastic folding table from wall mart.

Perfect design
For me this is an excellent size and style. It’s stable. I’ll be using it on gravel mostly.It’s more complicated to set up that it needs to be, with those cloth braces and all. But it’s fine.Love the rim around the edge to keep things off the floor. The whole table is light enough for me to handle; although, it’s heavier than I expected.Park Tool has always been the best quality.

Park Tool hits another home run
This is a great workbench and Park Tool hit a home run with this one. This unit folds up very nicely and is very quick and simple to set up when closed. This is very sturdy and the organizers on top come in really handy not only for bicycle repairs, but any project where a portable table is needed. I find myself using it a lot when I am washing the car. It is nice to use to hold the car care products in the driveway to have them close by. The surface is easy to clean up if it gets greasy or dirty.Anything. Park Tool makes is high quality and can’t be beat!

Organization for Bicycle Maintenance
I purchased the Park Tool PB-1 Portable Workbench after referring frequently to the Park Tool video “How to Wash a Bike”. The workbench helps to organize the materials needed to complete the work. It works as advertised.

Handy Utility Bench
The Park PB-1 portable work bench is a solid folding table designed for the bicycle mechanic who has limited space and needs the portability. It measures 32″ high, and the top working surface is 36″ X 23″. It has various cutouts and impressions for tools, bottles, and loose nuts/bolts.I use the workbench for repairing bicycles however since the height is 32″, it is taller than the average table and shorter than a workbench. Too tall to pull a chair up to and too short to stand and overhaul a hub for instance. The reason for this is its primary purpose was to mount a Park work stand, see, Park Tool PB-7 Repair Stand and Truing Stand For PB-1. This costs $801.00! But it also includes a wheel truing stand besides the stand which clamps the front fork and bottom bracket.Even without the optional Repair stand accessory it’s nice to work with the table because it has raised edges that keep tools, bearings and other things from rolling off and It allows you to keep tools handy. In my opinion though its a little high in price for the average home mechanic. Especially if the repair stand accessory is purchased. Bench and all the accessories will be close to $1000! Since I purchased this bench in September of 2014 for $115.95 it has gone up to $125.95.Update 01-04-18:At some point the bench top warped. The warp was not caused by any loading as it spent most of it’s existence folded up. I never used it for mounting a bicycle (as it was designed to do) or loading it with anything heavy. So I subtracted one star.

Nice work space
I really like this bench. I pair it up with a PC-10 with a 106 tool tray. It helps hold parts and loose items which I secure on my Park Tool magnetic bowl. There is plenty of surface space to use, so it can double up as a handy portable table for other uses.

Good Bicycle Workbench!
I just received my PB-1 Portable workbench! This stand is perfect for my needs, I have it set up in my shed/workshop!this stand folds up easily and is easily cleanable! Depending on your space availability this stand might be good for you!it is fairly small but perfect in hight. I give this product 4 stars just simply because of the price! even though i really like this stand and i find it useful for what i need it for, I just dont think it is worth that much, but then again im not sure!I do highly recommend this to anyone who likes too work on there own bikes!

Tavolo da lavoro molto robusto. à secondo me da considerarsi un prodotto “professionale” come fattura ed ergonomia. Adesso non ne posso più fare a meno nel mio garage.

Er hat eine recht groÃe Arbeitsfläche mit reichlich Ablagemöglichkeiten für Teile und Werkzeug. Der Werktisch wird von mir nicht nur Schrauberrein an Rädern, sondern auch als Ablage beim Präparieren von Skis genutzt. Er kann zwar nicht mit ner stationären Werkbank mithalten, doch für gelegentlichen Arbeiten bei beengten Platzverhältnissen absolut empfehlenswert.

Excellent piece of kit. Big enough to be useful and it appears to be very sturdy (I wouldnât trust it with my body weight) . Easy to manoeuvre around the workshop or on the road. Moulded areas are handy to store tools and parts.

Sehr schnell aufzubauen und zudem platzsparend wenn zusammengeklappt. Der Tisch hat Ausparungen für Werkzeug und ganz wichtig für eine Tasse Kaffee. Die Werkbank ist sehr stabil aber nicht zu schwer,also schnell woanders hingestellt. Vom Preis her kein Schnäppchen aber jeden Cent wert.
