CHAINLIFT V2

Easier than expected

I always struggle getting my tire on and off my bike, usually end up covered in grease and super frustrated. After seeing an add for the chainlift, I figured it was worth a shot, even it it marginally made it easier. After watching the videos, I picked my appropriate pin, moved the derailleur out of the way and the chain lifted right up. That allowed for a clean removal of my wheel. Putting it back on was sut as simple. It slid into place with a very simple twist, the dropped the chain back on. Pulled the chainlift off and didn't have anything on my hands for once. A couple recommendations I have for using it. Be sure to have the chain on the front small chainring, if you have two. THe rear should be on the third smallest. These are stated in the videos and it is good to follow. It makes for easiest removal and alignment. For chainring, it may be a good idea to label one of the videos using the chainring, or something similar and do a full use, starting from picking the pin to lifting the chain, all in one video. I am not a fan of going through the steps in their own individual videos. It's just a personal preference. Other than that it is a great product that I will continue to use.

Satisfying to use

Industrial design practically easy to use right out of the box. Few tools have this ingenuity and this tool easily makes it to the top 5. Every use is satisfying.

It makes my life easier and not damaging/dirty the chainstay whenever i take off the rear wheel. Also mounting it on/off to the trainer is easy.
