Hello, I've been lurking on the forum over the past year, enjoying the posts, thanks everyone. I searched the forums for opinions on the Ultimate MX hauler, and found some conflicting ones -- hoping to get some resolution.
I have a Toyota Tundra truck that we use to haul a little camper. We also do a lot of river shuttles (taking the truck to the takeout so it waits for us), which now involve either another car or someone driving the truck while I drive the TW200. I'd like to get a hitch hauler so that I can run the shuttles by myself, and perhaps eventually mount it on the front of the truck so we can pull the small camper too.
I looked at the Versahaul, but am a little nervous about the back tire not fitting in the rail. The Mototote looked good, wide enough and sturdy, but pretty heavy and big storage-wise. The Ultimate MX looked very nifty, and seems like a bomber product. Someone wrote that the TW200 pegs don't align with the hauler holders. Is that true with the new haulers? I wrote the guy who makes them but other than saying he knows people that use his hauler with TW's, he didn't give any details.
Any other options I should consider? I'd like to add that we bought the TW as a starter bike for my wife -- so ideally she'd be able to load/unload the bike herself. Another reason why I'm tempted to stay away from the rail-style haulers...
Thanks for any opinions/suggestions!
