I'm planning a future eMTB project and I'm trying to get the tools that I need. What repair stand would guys recommend?

              What's your budget?
How strong are you, i.e. what is your capacity for repeatedly lifting a heavy bike into the stand?
What is your anticipated build weight?
How much floor space do you have/need?
How many steps to your tool bench? Will you need additional trays attached to your workstand?
Do you have wheel truing available elsewhere or will you also want wheel-work management with your stand?
Will you need the stand to be portable or put away when you are done wrenching?
