Question "Leg-UP" "Training" wheels

I am hoping someone out there has, or has used this product, and can tell me how you like it - or not. I am about to purchase it, and since it is a bit pricy, thought I would check first. Thanks...

Saw a set used on a bike that a wheelchair user had installed so he could ride. You might want to ask on one of the handicapped sites and see if you can get more info.

I don't have them and probably never would.
But i think about them every time i am creeping along in road construction!!
Wish they had a set that retracted.

Default leg -up

I did get it. Not happy. could not adjust to it. When it come down, the one leg would hit the ground (on anormal crowned road) and then it would 'push' you to the other side. Some folks could manage this I guess. I couldnt. They allow returns- but only refund 1/2 the price. Think about it....

wow, that sux. A call to your better business bureau might be in order. 50% on a return isn't right.
