Looking for a bike lift which can also move. So a scissor lift on wheels. Hyrdrolic.
Sorry if this has been asked before but want to raise the whole bike as well as then move the bike and lift together. Does such a thing even exist?
 
The Abba Skylift does this. It also packs away small when not in use too.
 
Yes. I looked at these. But I want a table type lift to work on the bike. Not so sure about an Abba lift for a big GSA
 
It's got a high weight rating, more than enough for a GSA.

What work do you do, that would require a table top vs an open area?
 
I actually posted a similar thread, silly me, and asked a similar question. Some comments came back that the ABBA lift was not easy to use with a GSA
Table would be easier. Ride it on, centre or side stand and then lift. Only thing I I can’t find one that moves. Most are static which is what would not be ideal
 
It is a bit of a faff to get the Bike on it, but nothing difficult in reality. Lining up the pins is the only tedious part.

I have a table lift that moves ( not looking to part with it though!) :D
 
I bought a Sealey lift and fitted some HD castors off Amazon. It worked fine with some really heavy bikes - ST1300; Fatboy; K1200GT.
 
Pics always help! Altho it does roll around on it's castors. I certainly wouldn't roll it around with a big bike on it!
Altho it's a "british brand" it is probably made of chinky pig steel ;)

Lodgey was selling one - not sure whether it passes the wheels test, or if it's still for sale. If it's of interest I can help with logistics.
 
yup I saw. Eventually got one in NL. Exactly the same as the Sealy at EURO 500. Did a bit of research and actually moving a bike lift with a 300kg bike raised almost a meter off the ground around is not safe so basically non existent. Makes sense. So the one I have bought has small wheels to move around without the bike on which is fine for me.
Thanks all!
