Because I only use it in reverse when I'm doing chain/sprocket work. 95% of the time I use it in the correct orientation, which I prefer over a rear stand (both for ease of use and garage space required for storing the bike).

It seemed like either the tire would have to roll over the stand or the angle would make it nearly impossible to lift.  |
Yep, works great. The wheel (at least on my bike) is up high enough to clear the bar as you pick the bike up. Good point though, I guess that's all relative based on where your spools are in reference to your rear wheel.
