I just received this Scorpion bike stand as a gift. Seems simple, durable, and perfect for bike washing, lubing, and minor maintenance. Obviously you have to have a hollow crank, but all are now on decent bikes. Even with platform pedals, there is enough clearance to spin the cranks, although you have to slide it out a little on the arm. Comes with two crank bushings. I stashed the alternate size one (for Zee) inside the leg so I wouldn't lose it.

The black piece is a Delrin bushing that is free to rotate on the arm so it is easier to spin the cranks. It is held on by a circlip. Comes with two sizes. I guess the one that comes on it fits most everything except Zee, which is a smaller diameter.
