    Contrary to what the vendor says 4 and a half kilos will make a big difference in carry weight. The concept is "interesting" but only as a garage tool from what I can see.

    watch the You Tube video to see it in action. Looks pretty slick. Might be a nice tool to have on a long ride, particularly if out in the boonies.

    Nice but unnecessary. Proven ways already to lift a bike.

    And.. if your in a situation where you're pinned under a bike; chances are very dismal that you will be able to pull out said device; and assemble and then; winch the bike off of you.

    Normally; you're pretty effe'd up in the first place and are not in a position to plat "erector set" with a gizmo like this. Or even able to reach it and deploy it.


    Good marketing though. Dozens will buy it; I'm sure....
