As for the Flickstand, I used one many years ago and it worked great but once you put on fenders, that makes a Flickstand useless.
Somebody here mentioned a velcro strap to hold the front wheel in place. That made me think, what about the reflectorized ankle straps? I just threw one around the downtube and front tire of my city bike, and surprise, the front wheel is stable and I have a place to store the strap where I am less likely to lose it.
