Re: Giulia, thanks…I really love everything about it except for the fact that my local dealer closed 2 years ago and I have to drive an hour for service now. Grrr.
The only downside to Seasucker, as I see it, is the lack of security. They have a window mount eyelet available so you can cable lock the bike to the car, but that’s a less-than-ideal solution for a variety of reasons. I’m rarely in a situation where I worry about theft, but the security issue definitely impacts my decisions about where to go, when, and what to do with the bike.
