A tool assembly includes a housing, a shaft, a spherical member, and a head. The housing defines a shaft channel. The shaft is rotatably disposed within the shaft channel and includes an exposed portion outside of the shaft channel. The exposed portion defines an engagement channel extending through an outer surface of the exposed portion. The spherical member is disposed within the engagement channel. The head is configured to be engaged with the exposed portion of the shaft. The head includes a detent configured to selectively engage the spherical member.

A bicycle stand for supporting a bicycle or bicycle frame during assembly or repair, and a method of assembling a bicycle are provided. In one embodiment, the bicycle stand comprises a base for contact with a ground surface, and a post extending substantially vertical from the base and being supported by the base. The post includes a cylindrical receiving portion located at an upper end thereof for engaging a seat tube of a bicycle frame while the bicycle is in an upside-down or inverted position. The cylindrical receiving portion has a diameter of greater than 0.5 inches and less than 0.75 inches. A seat adapted for supporting the bicycle frame is located below the cylindrical receiving portion. The seat is positioned between 30 inches and 60 inches above the ground surface. The bicycle can be freely rotated about a central axis of the post while being supported by the bicycle stand in the upside-down or inverted position.

Embodiments disclosed herein generally relate to a pivotable clamp or vise. For example, the vise may clamp or secure a workpiece at a suitable position and/or orientation.
