workstand

Repair elevation frame

A workstand is a frame or support that holds something at a convenient height and angle for working on it.

The term appears most often in cycling, where a bike workstand clamps the frame to elevate the bicycle for repairs and maintenance: I mounted the bike on the workstand to adjust the derailleur.

Workstands exist for other objects requiring hands-free access during detailed work.
