What do you recommend?
I got this one for my Christmas present this year: (I see it's on sale for $140, which is a good price)

A friend recommended it and I have been really satisfied w/it. It's easy to set up and take down, holds the bike securely. I keep my bike much cleaner now that I have the stand.

I haven't advanced to doing my own tuneups, though. Good for you!
