Need Recommendation For A Lift To Work On Our Two Heavy Ebikes

Curious.... Why do you'all need a portable bike stand?
As I posted above, we'll rent vacation homes for extended periods and bring our bikes along.

In a pinch I'd bring something to protect my bars and seat and flip the bike upside down for repair.
Yeah, I've got a set of mini-handlebar stands like these for use on the road:

I maybe used them once.

Other than a flat... What do you want to accomplish on the road?
'cause it is my profession.
 
Suspending a bike from two eye bolts has worked for me. The fact that the rafters are only 7 feet high may be why swinging hasn't been a problem. There were 4 eye bolts in the pack, so I added the other two to experiment.

In front, the yellow rope catches the stem in a V, preventing lateral movement. However, it seemed that the bike could still swing independently of the ropes. In back, the dark rope makes an X as the rope passes under the rails of the rack. Friction between the rails and the rope keeps the bike from swinging independently of the rope.

Without pulleys, there is friction wherever the rope slides over something. Because I raise and secure one end at a time, it's easy to lift with one hand as I pull the rope with the other. The only hassle is securing and releasing rope ends. I've ordered a couple of cleats.

When I'm not working on a bike, the eye bolts are out of my way and ready for anything I want to suspend.
If you’re looking for a classic open-world experience, GTA San Andreas pc is still one of the best ways to enjoy it. The PC version offers improved graphics, smoother controls, and a huge variety of mods that can completely change the gameplay. Playing GTA San Andreas pc also allows you to easily experiment with cheats, custom missions, and enhanced textures. Whether you want to explore the cities, complete the storyline, or just cause chaos, the game remains incredibly fun. Its combination of freedom, story, and modding potential keeps players coming back even years after release.
Yes, if you’re going to spend money and frequently work on e‑bikes, getting a dedicated powered or hydraulic lift in the $500 to $700 range is a sensible move. Your existing Park Tool PRS‑15 is excellent for road bikes, but it is not designed for the heavier weight and different geometry of many e‑bikes. A proper lift will give you safer elevation, less strain, and better access. Keep your PRS‑15 for lighter bikes and get a new lift for your e‑bike work.
 
FWIW, I ordered the Park Tools PRS-30 with the leg base from Nex Gen Cycle:

They're running a 15% discount on just about everything and didn't charge sales tax nor shipping to California, so under $747 total.
Seemed too good to be true, but Marin Bikes has them down as an authorized reseller so they can't be totally shady.
I got a FedEx shipped notice, and will let you know when (if?) it arrives.

The PRS-30 arrived today. So, Nex Gen Cycle not only didn't charge tax nor shipping, they shipped 2-day FedEx across the country.

Unfortunately, I have guests arriving in a couple of hours, so it will probably have to wait until tomorrow for the unboxing.
BTW, the box weighs about 50lbs.
