I first saw the ad for the chainlift on instagram. It looked so simple, fast, and easy that I decided to give it a try. For me, I perform all maintenance and cleaning on my bikes and my bikes get regular cleanings. I also have different wheel sets for different types of terrain I ride. Add the occasional trainer ride during the shoulder seasons, I am changing wheel sets a lot. I mean a lot. In order to protect my bikes and make it easier to remove the rear wheel, I always remove my chain. This means I have to put on gloves, get the chain link tool, remove the chain, carefully store the greasy chain while I swap out wheels. Then repeat in reverse. I have used the chainlift three times since I purchased it. It has saved a lot of time. In the time it takes me to get my vinyl gloves and put them on, the chainlift has me ready to remove my wheel. It is that fast and that easy. This is a brilliant tool and will save me a lot of time. If you are like me and tinker on your own bikes a lot, once you use the chainlift you will ask yourself, why didn't I think of that. Happy riding!
