Review on πŸ”’ Black Kolpin Lock It Rite Trailer System - LGD-TRL-16 by Alexander Chavis

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Very strong, best binding

The device holds my 1500lb Honda Pioneer 700 perfectly in place without fear of breaking it. I've driven my buggy over 500 miles and it has stayed in place on smooth and bumpy roads. HOWEVER, the steel bolts have rounded corners and the bushing cannot turn them properly. I replaced them with sharp-edged bolts so my head could grab and flip them without risking cutting off the rounded edges and rendering them useless. I think this is a serious oversight on the part of the company. ALSO shown is a vertical bar that clips onto the tow bar ball parallel to the base plate. That's a problem. In this position, you need to accurately load the stroller onto the vertical rack. This makes the exercise crazy as the base plate is bolted to the trailer floor. There is no way to adjust the bar. You must load the vehicle perfectly in one line. If you deviate even a fraction of an inch, the clutch will not engage the ball. However, if you turn the base plate at right angles to the post, no matter how you load the stroller, you only have to move the post on the base plate to the right or left and you can easily lock the coupling on the ball. . Another advertising fox! CONCLUSION: Despite the shortcomings mentioned, this device is very strong and costs a quarter less than the competition. I am very happy that I bought this device. It's a good idea to read this review before purchasing so you won't be disappointed. All you have to do is know that there are a few minor issues that need to be addressed and you're good to go.
