Please recommend small highly-rated cycle lift--not one of the table type

I got a J&S last month with the "stand". Its great if you have a second bike you are working on. I got rid of the harbor freight table "big red". Im too old to kneel next to the bike for long.
Great product-fair price. easy to maneuver the bike around at full extension too. Don't forget the handle to push the bike around.

Anyways, as mentioned, the J&S does exactly what you inquired about, works just as the video, and is made in USA, and is highly recommended. I have 1 and wouldnt have another brand. As far as the price, yes its higher than others, but for a reason. Have not heard of anyone regretting getting one

Whatever the item in question, I most often adhere to the advice, "Buy the best, cry once". Trouble is it is difficult to identify the best without an excellent forum such as this one. Then again, often the best is out of price range. Then . . . you just buy as many of the cheap ones to replace what breaks--to the point where the expensive version costs about the same.

The J&S fits your requirements to a T. Theres 1 in the classifieds

Also Pitbull gets same reviews, 1 in classifieds too. I have no experience with them.

Point is, most folks that have been on HDForums for that long would have seen a billion jack threads.
Let me boil every single one of them down to the following responses, this will cover nearly 100% of every opinion:
Let me boil every single one of them down to the following responses, this will cover nearly 100% of every opinion:
- PitBull jack - expensive but worth it. (or J&S)
- What, are you crazy, thats ridiculously expensive! I use the Sears yellow jack (or Harbor Freight, pretty much interchangeable)
- Sears, are you joking? You paid $20K for a bike and now you are cheaping out on a flimsy jack? I used one once, and my bike practically lept off of it by itself. Never again
