Strong, safe ramp(s) for trike.

[m246563]

Hi, looking for suggestions for strong safe ramps to get trike onto truck or porch, or wherever. Everytime I read about ramps people complain about them being too flimsy, too steep, or can't handle the weight. Maybe someone has ramps and likes them, if so, I'd love to hear about them, and find out where I could purchase a decent item.

Thank you!

Teresa,

Please allow me to suggest that you try typing either of these words into the search bar:

• Ramps
  
• Trike Ramps
  

The search bar is located close to the top of the right hand side of your screen.



There are several threads on this topic that may help you out until there are more post responses to your question.ThumbUp

Good luck

I have an ATV ramp that I've used for my TG a few times. Have had the ramp for over 20 years and it works well. It is aluminum and folds up and stores nicely.

Not sure if this is the same brand, but it looks like the one at this link-

Kevin, I assume you meant that photo to be a joke, right? If I tried loading my TG into that PU using that ramp I would not only take my exhaust off but I would probably get hung up at the top also. If that thing was about twice as long it might work, maybe.

You have to load from another elevated surface like a small hill. Or put the truck tires in a ditch. Then you have to find the same kind of place to unload. But it's all doable using the ramp. At least you don't have to worry about putting your feet down as I've seen ramps like that suggested for bikes as well. Not a good idea.

I've never put it in the truck....but if I needed to...What hogcowboy said. Was just using the photo as an example of what my ramp looks like.

I have used it to get the TG into my elevated bike room before I built the ramp...also used it to put in a trailer once.
