Actually use a dolly sometime and you'll understand just how backward a comment you just made. I've been making my own dollies since jacks came out 30 plus years ago, best investment a do it yourselfer can make.

I did a review on this dolly awhile back.
Here's the link.

https://www.hdforums.com/forum/gener...ly-review.html


According to the Redline spec:
"Adjustable width from 18.25" to 25.25" wide"
I think that's outside to outside.

I measured the pads at 2.25" so at 25.25" outside to outside, the maximum inside spread width would be 20.75".

I see-though in bluravens pic,the dolly looks more stable than your pic. Pictures can be deceiving!

I can sit on a little mechanics stool and completely turn a bike 360 by hand while on this dolley and it has a fairly small footprint. I have 3 currently for when I was doing a lot of bike work, would put a bike up and could walk it in & out of the garage or stack them to one side for the space. Very solid platform to work on, zero movement pulling a wheel, frontend or even a motor if needed.
