Another exhibitor in Manchester had bought a secondhand disability scooter/wheelchair ramp for their van and used it to wheel bikes in. Their bikes were cafe racers and they fitted three in a transit side by side. My bike fills the same space - or at least takes up the space of two of their bikes. So my bike is much heavier. Anybody any experience of these or any good reason why I shouldn't do the same?
I currently put two single ramps in, wheeling the bike up one while walking up the other. The bike is winched in as two of us cannot push it up the ramp. The ramp I walk up gets slippery in the wet and I nearly came a cropper loading the bike in the rain in Scotland a few weeks back so I need a safer solution.
These ramps are certified safe at a weight of 300KG. The bike and me probably weight a bit more than that in total. Any thoughts?
