"an off-center condition "

Does this translate into - "it fell over" ??

That's what BLM said further up in an earlier reply to this topic.

I've attached a side-by-side photo of the two units.  Bike Pro on the left, Condor on the right.  You can see that the Condor appears to have more stability due to the brackets that extend much further out to the sides at the front of the unit as compared to the Bike Pro.  I think as long as you have the Bike Pro fastened down to something (like a lift in Twolane's case or a trailer floor) you might be just fine with it, but the Condor looks to be the better choice if you want a mobile unit.

Crap, I'd not even thought about that.  A free standing Bike Pro would freak me out a little.  Nailed down it's always seemed good and stable.  But loose it'd walk forward when you rolled the bike in and thinks might definitely shift if the load got more Dolly Parton (top and rear heavy).

There is a oval base the bike pro fastens down to,it is even wider than the condor. Solid as a Rock,I park my seeg with it all the time when in the garage ,without the side stand down. [smiley=pumpkin.gif]
