Thanks Pete - if I can't find one nearer home, I'll probably take you up on that

That looks like a sealy lift. The height is only 770mm It will do your back in but then again will be better than sitting on the floor.. You can get 900/1000mm lifts which would be better for you. Mine is a 1000mm lift but i have it sunken into the floor for space saving reasons.

mine is the full height :)

the extra inches count - ask the hobbit....

I believe he has one ..... but refers to it as "the bike mounting platform"

nod

or steps if he feels close to "H"

Couldve done with one of those loading the dead GPz into the back of the Transit yesterday.. and then getting it out again the other end.. considering the loadbed of a transit sits almost halfway up my thigh, heightwise.. *

Quite a feat when you've got an equally short 13 year old son helping you..

But we got there.

*put your arms up above your head then angle forwards by about 20 degrees.. that was me at full stretch stood at the back doors of the van trying to keep pushing it up the ramp and hold the bars, operating the front brake and not dropping the fekkin thing.

Just need a height adjustable stool with wheels.

Fitting wheels to a stool would be...
messy.

and can i just say that tim is actually taller than a stool





































not as tall as a bar stool but.....

Anyway, does anyone have one they's like to sell me?

Got one. Clarke CML3

£185.00, looks as if it's not had a great deal of use. Collected it ealier this evening from Bristol; seller had a rather spectacularly customised VRod

Where's that Jealousy Emoticon when you need it ..................






Looks good Mart

same type as mine



WAS

i found out that it was not wide enough to use an abba stand so, two lengths of sheet deck fell out of a local oil rig and have been bolted on to make the platform a metre wide. i think i am also going to loose the wheel clamp and extend the front - i am lucky that i have a spare garage JUST for the bike lift :)
