So I got the stand and got it put together but I can't lift the bike. It doesn't even start to lift, just wants to slide.

I'm no muscle guy but I'm not a weakling either. How hard is this supposed to be???

Ideas?

No, I was trying to muscle it up with my arm instead of keeping my arm straight like in the YouTube video.

Welcome to the club! :D Same thing happened to mine the first time. You have to just grab the handle and confidently pull like you are a CEO. If not, it'll slide!

So now I think I really do have a problem. After one use the left brace seems like it may be bending. Paint is cracked on both sides of the brace.

Won't be using it again until I hear from Abba.

Thoughts?
