Is anyone out there using the lift ramp "INSERTS" rather that replacing the entire lift ramp?
I would like to know how there holding up in the clubs, I would like to hear from you guys that have them in clubs and have to return to club to maintain them AND LISTEN to the club complaints!!
Please provide me some details like:
1. How many units you've installed these on?
2. How long they've been on the machines?
3. How there holding up?
4. Problems encountered? Adhesive holding up?
5. Would you use them again?
Anything else you would like to add.

Hello John,
This is Brett at Millennium Fitness Products writing in response to your post. I have been selling these ramps for quite some time now(over 700 sold) and have had no problems with relilability. Made of stainless steel for maximum wear properties, form fitted by a very expensive mold, these units are built to last. The adhesive is the only issue in that the installiation has one requirement, the ramp surface must be clean and free of oil dust or the like. the reason for this is because it is a VHB style and strength increases over time. If you try to peel it up directly after installiation there is a chance that damage will be done. However, properly installed these units last 2 to 4 years depending on the abuse factor. In any case the ramp covers are alot less expensive and last easily as long as the factory ramps and anyone can do the installiation with no tools. I hope this helps and if you need any ramps at a good guy price call me.
Brett

Hey john, I have installed probably twelve sets of Brett's ramps sleeves with great success. I checked on a job a did four months ago and the ramps there were still like butter. NO pitting or marring and the action was smooth. We have all seen the anodized aluminum get bad on these ramps and I don't see any of it with the stainless. Use denatured alcohol with a scotchbrite pad and then paper towel off the residue from the old ramps and press on. It's that easy. Brett's got the best prices on these.
Tell him I sent you!
Now this type of discussion is what a forum should be like!
