I am a 58 year old dirt bike rider.
Woman about 5'4 at 145 pds and I lift to install my Ultimate MX Hauler by myself.
The 1st time I got it I was concerned and was afraid of its weight BUT I took the suggestions on how to hold it and I have gloves on when lifting it to place in position and found no problems after practicing slowly and carefully.
Lifting it every other day for about a week. I also afterwards bought a 4 inch high low hitch adapter and can now load my bike by myself. I cannot lift the bike onto the platform by myself BUT with the hitch adapter it's no problem. Just shimmying the bike a bit now into position and almost rolling it right over the platform position now it's not a problem. I ride a 2015 Suzuki DR200.
It works, be patient and take your time getting use to it. Great Product!
Wait... why not just use another jack?
Bro hymn instrumental.. nice
VERY cool... not pressing down on shocks/springs... too bad didn't have that bolt on both sides! I think I'll get one of these over the ramp loading ones just to keep compression off shocks!
If you are referring to the Footpeg Shafts? there is one on either side.
Worth it, I’ve had mine now for 8 years with no issue. Can’t count how many thousands of miles of drive time with my 450 on that thing
Pretty SICK, just picked one up from ERIK in Redlands, Ca. SUPER COOL & KNOWLEDGEABLE DUDE !!👌🏻👍🏻👌🏻🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟✊🏻✊🏻
12 days after MX hauler took my money I finally got a email saying there back ordered and it's 4 to 6 weeks out they were not back ordered when I ordered it. Consider this when purchasing
Thanks for letting us know! Their website says out of stock currently so maybe they updated it once they noticed they processed your order but didn’t have one ready to ship.
Really cool product 👍
yes it is! we use ours often!
Haha... whats up Vegas Gurl.. Did you buy one?? I'm looking at these now.
Can this be used on a front hitch or would it put the bike up too high and possibly impede the view out the windshield? Are there multiple heights to set it at?
How about a vid on the heavy duty version?
We have these and there great!
Pretty cool device and video. Well done . Cheers
Pennywise background music! Rad! 🤟😎
I have a quick question I have a truck with a 6in lift on it . Will this go low enough to put bike on it with ease to lift up bike . Do I need to by a lowering hitch adapter for my receiver ?
I just bought an adapter from ultimate mx hauler. It's great. I can now easily load my bike by myself. Do not buy a cheap one. I spent more to buy theirs because I want to haul my bike without worrying about cheap metal and weld failure. I ride and haul a 2015 Suzuki DR200.
Bought one a week ago, I've tried to get an update on the order, 3 calls, and 4 email's no response yet. !!!
Any suggestions for the best way to lock the bike down to the MX hauler?
They should include multiple brackets to hold frames. Pegs are not a tie down point.
I like how the "gently lift onto the platform" is glossed over. It was probably a 250-lb line backer doing that part
I was just coming to ask that specific question. I am 5'1 and my bike is 200 lbs. Can I really lift this on?
It seems like you could line the bike up a couple feet behind the truck and then back it up to move the lifter under the bike, like a forklift.
With a backup cam it might be pretty easy to get right.
@@sarakeyes I'm a 5'4, 145 pound dirt bike riding woman aka grandma. I can and it took patience and practice along with a hitch adapter with a 4 inch drop. I can now load and unload a Suzuki DR200 by myself. I'm very happy with this bike hauler.
Agreed. Good luck gently lifting a 350lb dual sport.
@@sarakeyes I use a drop hitch attached and roll my Suzuki DR200 right up onto the platform, "no lifting" at all.
The bottle jack is needless complexity and cost.
Just make it screw operated so anyone with an electric drill can raise and lower it. No clue why they use the bottle jack design. Makes no sense.
Also, let it go all the way to the ground. Why force people to lift short bikes? It isn't even an option on some 300lb dual sports. You aren't lifting it.
So many ways to make this better, cheaper, and more reliable.
let me know if you are aware of a screw or worm gear that can take the place of the bottle jack, i would happy to take a look at it!
@@alexpersinger Screw mechanisms are used in scissor jacks. They are used in a lot of high force applications.
You can easily raise a lower a 20,000lb boat with a simple mechanism on boat trailers.
It makes no sense why they use a jack. It is probably the worst possible option for what it is used for in this design.
i thought the same thing with the scissor jack... just thinking out loud on my keyboard though , im sure there a good reason why ...
@@lowbudgetballer The entire thing could be done with a geared crank and a toothed leg, like on a boat trailer. Do it manually or connect your favorite brand of cordless power tool.
It is legit mind blowing that this hasn't been done yet.
Hey! Where is the beginner track she is riding in the video? Perfect for my son, we live in CA and LACR is too gnar for him, and Gorman is a little too far. LMK! @Ultimate MX Hauler. P.S. I have and love my MX hauler
I believe it was Lake Elsinore
I am a puny weakling according to my roommate. Can I really lift a 200lb bike onto this thing?
no..not by the sounds of it
I have the same body style tundra used in the vid. Might have to invest in one of these. I have the kind that needs tie downs. I bought a bike off Craigslist, went and picked it up and noticed someone snatched my tie downs out of the back of my truck. The owner had tie downs he gave me, I was on the freeway 5 north San Diego and the bike fell off the back. Total night mare, totally sketchy situation because the tie down broke. This is nice, no need to carry a ramp either.
does the ONE strap actually hold the bike safely in place??
The bike is secured to the platform via footpeg shafts, essentially bolting the bike to the platform, the tiedown strap is just to keep the handlebars from flopping around.
i need to know if the tailgate has room to open while a bike is mounted and the hauler is either all the way down or possibly half way down. I want to put it on my truck with a camper that i built that needs the tailgate to be open to access the door.
Will this also work on a front hitch?
I have seen several customers do it, however I recommend you check legalities of your particular State, also check out our FaceBook, I believe some hav posted pics there.
Honestly the company needs to make this out of aluminum. Its really heavy and akward with the gas can attachment
Can you open up your tailgate with a bike on it?
No
Lol. How do you even envision that working???
How well does it handle in long overland trips
Very well and I travel from San Diego to the deserts 2 hours drive up then back few days later. Have used it to take my bike into my mechanic locally. I love it. If you follow the directions and secure it properly you should not anticipate any problems. I make sure to look at the video once or twice before use to make sure I don't screw up and forget a step. That could be a disaster. Does not take long AT ALL to install and put your bike on after you have used it a few times. I'm done within 10 to 15 mins now that I use it regularly.
@@sherryj7933 thanks for getting back to me! Got one coming soon
lift a 300 pound bike on the platform. no problem for a 60 year old man. Back to the drawing board so the lift sits on the ground when you lower it.
It will depend on the truck some have a hitch that sits lower, I noticed that older 4runners with this hitch don’t requiere you to lift up the bike.
@@xnova5 I have a Ford Explorer SUV and I use a 4 inch drop hitch adapter so I now practically roll my 2015 Suzuki DR200 right into position. I'm 58 and about 5'4 woman dirt bike rider. I can load and unload my bike by myself. Be safe and take your time. (If you feel weak) Lift the device every other day if you can when not using it just to build strength. I wear gloves when installing and lifting it. I can practically throw it around now. LOL
How about a couple of 2x4 blocks. Roll the bike up onto them in front of the Hauler and no lifting, just slide the bike onto the pad.
Roll it over smart guy. The bike does have a wheel that turns so you can maneuver closer
You're right. No reason for it to be so high. A lower loading point is easy to design in.
you edit out the part when you actually put the bike on their yourself???? I don't think you did if you edit that part out.
i can't seem to find
the weight of this thing.
64 lbs
Is there a geometric lock when it’s fully lifted (even better with a locking pin) or does it rely upon hydraulic pressure to keep it in place?
Sorry - wasn’t clear from the video?
The UMXH comes with a Threaded Winged Safety Pin and does not rely on Bottle Jack pressure in transit.
You put a fat pin in it and take the bottle jack out
Great product,but your website sucks,at least mobile version
I’d give her to ultimate holler
damn was ganna get one till i seen it was made in cali. Guess i will spend 25 bucks and build my own that isnt so flimsy
This Ultimate MX Hauler is not flimsy.
I was skeptical till I bought it. Use as directed.
Better quit eating fruits and veggies, because those all come from Cali too!
would be better to show and describe some details instead of showing a woman who just shows herself.....
What details might you be looking for?
all that work for a 2:22 minute video lol
we actually made 2 videos from that shoot...but yeah...there's a lot more to it than just filming a normal vlog!
