WTB: Front/rear stands


Ok so I'm gonna bite the bullet and get a decent set of stands, like you all have suggested. I'm leaning towards woodcraft at this point, based mostly on all the glowing recommendations I hear about them. Now a question on the front stand, how sturdy is that pin mount stand going to be as compared to say a good fork lift stand? It would certainly be nice to be able to remove my forks, but I can't see myself needing to do that very often and it's more important to me that my bike be stable when I'm working on it, or when I have it up on the stands for storage. Would I be losing some stability by going with a headstock/triple tree mount? I know they take a little longer to set up, but I'm not a racer so the extra few minutes is no problem...
