This would make a great bike lift.. and cheap

Saw this on the Rochester CL, not mine. It has a swivel top. You could keep the swivel top on and at a locking mechanism so you could spin the bike around and lock it in any position. Or you could removes the top and use it like a regular lift. Hmmmmmmmmmmmm :whistle:

That does look interesting. You could also pick up a piece of channel iron and weld it to the edges of the turntable to make it long enough to support a bike.

Edit: Holy shite I just googled these things and they cost $2,163.00 brand new. Only problem I can see is they weigh 500 pounds, still they look like they could be adapted to make a neat bike lift for not a lot of money.

wow that is pretty cool. it would be a great bike lift.

Just hard to move around the garage.

That is the only reason it is not in my garage right now. My garage is a decent size but not big enough to allow something that big to just sit there taking up space when not in use. The one I have now can be tipped on it's side and rolled up against the wall. I wonder how much less he would take for it. It has been on CL a few times and the price keeps going down.

It wouldn't be too hard for you to find out Kawtoy, Mumford is only a hop, skip and a jump away from you,,, :lol: :lol: :lol: You could make a day trip of it with the family and see the ol' Mumford village.
