does the handle come off? for attaching it to a bike axle or a wind turbine

Unfortunately no!, because it is so hard to turn that I would no advise you to pair it with any wind powered device.In that specific case I would try bicycle hub dynamos which demand less torque to operate although they are more expensive.

I'm guessing if you unscrewed it but that would be extremely difficult. It's not made to come off. Also this product as a whole does not work well at all. Waste of money for me...

No, it doesn't, which is good. The handle is the part of the unit that takes the most pressure in operation and therefore needs to be very securely attached. It may be possible to disassemble it from the body, but it'd be an effort I don't think would be worth doing either way.

No. My handle was always loose and couldn't be tightened all the way. It's junk. Pass on it or send it back! It's defective!

Yes , once I installed it on both my bikes I have never taken it off! I got two stock skewers for sale, lol!!:)

Yes. The handle is detachable, so if you needed it for a longer reach, it's easy to assemble and stays on pretty good and removes easy as well for a shorter reach.

Yes, comes right off no prob. And a wrench works fine. Handle has nice flat spots to hammer on if you have a difficult hub to pull, I find that much more effective than a bigger wrench (I sound like a Ford owner).

Seems sturdy to me. The handle comes off only when the release button on the sides are depressed.

Yes, the bungee leash is attached to the swing arm (which is like 15" long) and both come off. This leaves just the "forks" and the horizontal bar which goes from the top of the forks to the seat mount, still on the bike

I'm not sure how it's attached to the handle. As far as I can see, it cannot be removed.

Yes... It just detaches from the hardware attached to the handlebars. Just use one of the bike cable locks if you are concerned.Butch

Yes. Just don't swing it around while holding the handle to much, it will come off if abruptly tugged upon.

Yes it does. It seems like it would work pretty well as a basket. It quickly comes off the bike and there are two bars that lay along the basket top edge. These two bars raise up and will work nice as a handle for a basket.

David, the handle does not detach. It is quite a bit stronger this way and is quite thin, so stores away readily.

It screws in so it doesn't just pop out. I thought it did when i bought it, but I've never had a need or desire to take the handle off.

No. It screws into the hole on the tip of the handle. I have had no issue with it coming out.

Pull hard and the roller will come away from the handle. It should slip off easily as it is not glued on.

I don't know if the little handle comes off, but I use it when I am getting into the tub. I also use it to slide out.

The handle does not come off. Although we have not had any problems with hitting it. It is set somewhat toward the back of the chair and it does come in handy to hold on to while getting off and on the chair.
