Sport Bike Hitch Hauler

[DZircher]

I bought this from Amazon just a couple of months ago and used it twice to bring my bike in to the shop and back home. It just makes me too nervous (I'm a nervous hauler) and I still needed help loading and unloading it. Pick it up in cambridge - $100, new was about 200 plus shipping.

That's a sweet deal on a good one with a chock built in.

I don't like the way my truck sits with it on it, it's an old truck and the hitch is long. Just running across town kind-of stressed me out and I know it sounds a tad silly but I'd rather have a nice mellow ride up to Loudon. I also figure that since I'll need help loading and unloading the bike anyway, I'd rather put it in my bed with the wheel chock that I have. I'm sure it'll be a good deal for someone that's more confortable with it.

whenever i used the bed of a truck to bring my bikes up i never used wheel chocks (might have been stupid of me but hey).
Also in the long run you might wanna look for an enclosed trailer. it would make your life VERY EASY!

I have one that I got a few yrs. ago & have used it to take my bike to the track & to Maine, & it works great. just make sure you strap the bike really good on it.

Do you load/unload yourself? I'm sure it's perfectly stable, I'm just a tad of a stressball sometimes.

to load it I have to have someone help me, due to holding it up to tie it down, but to unload it I have done it alone. Oh, nobody can be a stressball & I have bad anxiety & I don't worry about my bike on this. What kind of truck do u have?

Instead of selling this why don't you buy another one and mount it on the front and strap a 550 pound toolbox on it for good balance?
