4.0 out of 5 stars Blitz Rider Ramps - They Are Good - But Not Great, May 25, 2011

Length:: 1:15 Mins

EXPERIENCE: The Blitz Rider Ramps are made out of a durable plastic material, and have a small rubber strip at the bottom, in the middle of these ramps. The website advertises these to work on both a concrete and grass surfaced.

As you can well see, there is video proof that these do not work on concrete. I think the reason for this, has to do with the fact, there is not rubber on the entire bottom of the rider ramps. Perhaps if there were, it may not have slid like that, maybe a rubber mat will allow these to operate on concrete?

Somebody please get back to me on this and let me know. I even tried using a hammer to pound them underneath the tire more, before I tried to drive up on them. Unfortunately, this did not work.

As you can well see however, once I took my rig onto the grass, I was able to drive up on them just fine and lock in the parking break. These things basically rise my machine up to about the same level as my jack.

These are nice because they allow me to service mine or others machines. However, since impact wrenches are so big, just as with before, you will also need to get your jack out, to lift the side of the deck, who's blade you are trying to remove, to get the extra clearance, for the impact to fit underneath.

CONCLUSION: Since they advertise these to work on both concrete and grass, I think they need to go back to the drawing board, cause I am not the only one having problems with this on concrete. However, they work well on grass and allow me to service these machines. I am somewhat happy with my purchase, and I give these a 4 out of 5.

UPDATE 09/08/11

I just most recently had a chance to use these again. The first time I used them so that I could get under my cutting deck to remove the blades. They were quite dull and were not cutting the grass anymore, plus were doing a horrible job bagging. I was able to easily get under there to remove and reinstall the cutting blades without a hole lot of hassle.

With as much mowing as I do, I knew I had a lot of caked on nasty grass and dirt under my cutting deck. So today I used them so I could pressure wash the underside of my deck. It wasn't as easy as having the deck completely off my machine to do it, but it was easier to do without the ramps! I was able to get it much cleaner, the evidence is on my back lawn LOL.

These are nice ramps, but they only work on the lawn, unless you are able to pickup a couple of rubber mats for concrete.

These truly are a good idea, would make blade changing much easier, but I couldn't get them to work. Instead of rolling up on them the mower just pushed them forward leaving black skid marks all over the driveway. I tried going slow and fast with no success. I plan to return them.

I also had the issue of the ramps sliding both on gravel and blacktop but I have also had the same issue with the regular style ramps. I solved my issue by putting these ramps on the grass where they held fine. I think they need to improve the design slightly.

I do not mind lying in grass and once I got my riding mower up on these ramps I was very pleased with how much room I had to work with. With the regular ramps I never had enough room to work underneath the mower deck.I will be keeping mine.

Blitz does need to make those grips on the bottom a little bigger and that might solve the problem.
