Well, many two-legged kickstands can be used for repairs. I barely ever use anything else, whether on the road or at home. However, indeed the Jamis' stand appears to have some special feature.
I am happy to post below a pic of my bike used for commuting. It seems that here is a place where I can do that without an immediate ridicule. The bike was originally Trek 730 but now only the frame remains original.
