    Hey folks, thanks for watching! Also, I added the $7 Apple TV remote case I showed in the video as well. It's got a strap and it non-slip. Another 'stupid things DCR buys but loves' item: amzn.to/3n3c4jY

    I've also had this exact same desk for two years - I absolutely love it. There is one thing to note: The instructions for assembly are rubbish (why do the castors have that nut on the bolt? Is it for leveling? Do I need it? - these questions will never be answered), but the overall assembly is pretty easy to figure out. Here's one thing - I originally put it together with the "Rad" stickers on the inside of the table legs - the legs seem to be completely identical so I really didn't think it mattered. The problem was that when pushing the buttons to lift the desk, one side stuck a little, I also had to put my foot on the base to pull the desk up. No big deal. But just for the heck of it I took it apart and put it back together the "right" way. Now the push-and-lift system works perfectly. Does that mean the legs are slightly different and designed to be on either the right or the left? If that were the case don't you think the "instructions" would point that out? I still doubt it makes any difference one way or the other, but if you run into a sticky-up problem, you might want to give swapping the legs a shot.

    Best alternative by far is a heavy duty folding music stand, costs about $45, has adjustable height and tripod legs to get fairly close to your set up.

    Wowwwww, I actually tried to buy the Wahoo Kickr desk and it was sold out everywhere. After two weeks of that, I bought the RAD Desk and love it. I had no idea the Kickr desk didn’t have water bottle holders, wheels that slide sideways, or wheel locks. If I had gotten and saw this video, I’d have been pretty pissed. Those two features are a life saver. I have my treadmill and Kickr right next to each other in front of a TV. I slide my desk side to side constantly. And i’d be pissed if I was knocking over my water bottles during runs. Although I paid $180 on Amazon for the RAD Desk. Not $120.

    @mariamueller1946 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    I just got this desk last week! It’s a bit of a pain to adjust the height initially but overall really happy with it. I can’t raise both sides at the same time because the buttons are too far inside the desk to push with both hands, and even with putting one foot on the frame, it wouldn’t budge. Had to alternate raising each side a few inches. However, now it’s at the right height, and I like it! What a game changer for indoor training.

    I literally order the rad desk yesterday, got a little nervous by some of the reviews so canceled it and ordered Wahoo desk instead.
    Great review and thanks for pointing out the wheels and how the water bottle will fall off on the Wahoo with a little wobble. Now I gotta return this Wahoo after it's delivered tomorrow 😃

  • @scotjaworski6628
    @scotjaworski6628 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    I've been using this for about a year... very happy with it. I use a fork stand and a good size fan that goes underneath it, so the fan blows right up into my chest.

  • @d.wendalattig5116
    @d.wendalattig5116 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Wahoo Headwind fan placement is no issue. Simply use a cigar box, brick, paver, or another type of box shape of the right thickness to prop up the rear of the fan to the desired height. If you find vibration due to the square tubing shape of the Rad frame, wrap the frame where the fan hooks over with something soft like a towel, pool noodle, or peel-and-stick rubber pads. Alternatively, apply peel-and-stick rubber pads to the bottom of the "hook" legs on the front of the fan that make contact with the Rad frame.

  • @geraldkiessling
    @geraldkiessling 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    I hadn't looked too closely when I bought it and thought that the „copy“ of Lifeline would only save me real money. Now, on closer inspection, I guess I did everything right. Perfect! - I'm already thinking about attaching a USB hub to the underside with a strong tape. Only for the cables would you have to drill slightly larger holes.

    Thank you for the review. Saw a number of 1-star reviews on this, people were having issues with the buttons. But I took a chance, and also used your link to purchase it. The strength test was important - I plan on using the desk as an arm-rest that is higher than my road bike's hoods are.

    • @Dcrainmaker
      @Dcrainmaker  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yeah, as noted in one of the review (either here or my written one), the buttons were a bit finicky at first, and then once I popped them in place properly, good to go! Thanks for using the link - appreciate it!

    Lifeline also has a rocker plate for around €300. Seeing as this is a lot cheaper than most, it’d be really interesting to see your take on it. Maybe a good suggestion for a future review....

    I’ve had mine for few years now and it’s a great desk. The only downside for me is that the wheels are swivelling so it doesn’t easily go forward and back in a straight line. Like you showed Better if you want to move around but for most I bet they will only move it forward or back.

      Actually, the thing I like the most I forgot to mention, and you didn't comment on it much either: it's narrower than the Wahoo desk. That's why I bought it originally. My space is kind of narrow, I have a Concept 2 rower next to it. Needed something narrower, this is just enough smaller that it fits perfectly.

    Curious if anyone has ziptied a powerstrip to the underside of the desk to provide a make-shift power integration station. While not as well put together as a Saris, I think it would certainly be functionally the same. As I'm considering this as a multi-purpose standing desk for work & cycling this makes sense.
