I have a light weight tandem. Can the pulleys be adjusted wide enough to accomodate a longer bike such as the tandem.

The rail is 30 inches long & the weight limit is 75 lbs. The pulleys DO adjust along the rail. Each pulley has a set of stops that are screwed into the rail to keep each pulley in place. I agree with another post that one pulley lifts the bike & then you have to balance/level the load once the bike is off the ground before you continue to raise it. I have 2 of these & one handles a large Schwinn that's older without any problem. It's really easy to do once you get the hang of it

mine is maxed out for a regular bike. It reaches handle bars to seat back. For you a may work reaching seat to seat.

This product may not meet your needs as the rail is only about 3 feet long and the weight may be an issue even though it's considered to be a light weight bike.

Yes it can. This is a great product I am looking at buying another one. For my mountain bike. The other I use for a street bike

I think the pulleys will go wide enough for a tandem. That said, I would not buy this one. The other hoists that are designated for canoes and kayaks have double-rope systems which seems to lift the item evenly (both ends go up at the same rate). This one lifts one end and you have to manually level-out the load. At least that's how it works for me.

It should, plus the part that lifts up the bike from the axle and or swing arm has adjustable widths

Yes, the rack I have is adjustable. You can slide them forward or backward to accommodate your load.

No there are no adjustments for the pull weight . If you think you may have a problem they make a crank cocker for it . I have a problem with my one shoulder so I learned my lesson the hard way I had a dry fire and it cost me $150 for new string and cables

You have an aluminum frame there, like mine, so it would fit in that regard over the chain stay. With your larger 700c wheels, the bike would tip more on the stand, but it will still work.

Yes. Those are the ones on my bike. But your derailers might have a different ratio and that could cause incosistancies when shifting.

Mine are set nearly 10' apart, and there is enough rope to separate them further. The pulleys lift independently, but ultimately you will be able to level it out. You have two ropes to pull as you lift.

Yes, it depends on wether you hav center pull, v-brakes,or cantilever. At most you may nee to fiddle with the adjustment a bit. I used these on short throw side pull breaks on a road bike. It just depends on the application.

I couldn't say for sure, but looking at the chain stays, I suspect not. The nylon straps that ratchet up on the stays are reasonably long but some of the stays on these folding bikes are large rectangular sections and the thule clamps are round in profile. It would be one of the few bikes that they wouldn't fit. Great racks though.

Try a bike shop or a good hardware store. They fitted ours with adjustments at a bike dhop.

Not unless you got longer bolts and spacers for one end. The spring end of the stock shackle is much narrower than the frame end.

Spacers or offset wheels would be a good idea to more stable cause it will be narrower after the lift

I would say maybe not, because you have to allow space on either side as working space. If it sat a little out from the corner it might work. Be sure to allow about 8' in front of the unit for working space, for the low pulley exercises.

Hello, I imagine you could if it will fit. However the bikes will still move back and forth and may fall over as you turn. Thank you.

There isn't a way to adjust the straps.....but could you adjust your rope/chain on one side to compensate?

zip ties should work, just cut them to your needed lenght. OR you could go to a bike shop and ask them or the manufacturer support dept.

While you can place the two pulleys as close together as possible, the way the pulleys and the hooks are oriented might not be optimal for hooking to a wheel -- unless you had bars running through the spokes. I wouldn't do this if I were you -- the hooks are very narrow and the bike almost certainly will fall off and kill your face. Cheers.
