    Had to google 'pitbull wedge'. Pretty cool. That item is worth its weight in gold. No more foot under the tire as a 'third hand'.

    Had to got there, eh? Was thinking the same but to each their own. :)

    I ordered that puppy, btw. The past few days, I removed 2 sets of wheels (2 bikes) 3 times each for fork tube removal, drilling for safety wiring and, in a moment of vanity, swapping the wheels of different colors to see how they looked on the other bike.

    I figured I'd throw it out there. I will definitely pay full price if no one hits in a few days. Playing this game trying to ball on a budget is laughable, I agree.

    I have one and haven't used it in probably three or four years. I would say it basically brand new. How about $50 shipped? You can PM me if you like.

    Tire Wedge was a popular item. Got several requests for it, but the OP will have it in his hands on Wednesday. Pleasure doing business!

    A 2x4 does the same when angled right on a pitbull stand ;)

    A piece of decking board, my owners manual, and a post it note pad stacked worked as well. Looking forward to this set-up!

    Boards work until you do this professionally and have 6 wheels to pull, all at different heights. Then the height adjuster is your friend.

    A crescent wrench or channel locks will take off axle nuts. LoL

    But cause damage doing it :) . Apples/oranges. I have both the tire wedge & my 2x4 (which I still use in a pinch). I can use my 2x4 as a wheel stop on my trailer too!

    I've used my Pitbull wedge as a wheel stop for my trailer. Works great too! LOL

    I used a piece of wood for years, couldn't imagine something being worth 100x the cost. After using a friend's wedge last weekend I immediately ordered one from Justin Levy at Trackside Parts Club, it is that much better.
