I have a pivot jack similar to this that I like. Cheap, fast, and compact.

Is it easy to lift with just 1 person without risking a tip over?

Mine is dead easy. One person and 30 seconds...including sliding it under the bike.

I don't have the Pit Posse. Mine is a 20 year old from Harley P&A and has a cast iron base. Same exact principle and overall dimensions.

Remove the handle once lifted and it's out of way. Great for cleaning and basic service
