I Switched from regular spools to the Woodcraft Superbike lifter ;-) Huge difference in just engaging and ease of lifting.
Super quality made... I was running into clearance issues with the stock chain adjuster plates so that is why I switched.
GLAD I did... this will make this a lot easier at the track and for anyone helping me when I come of the track for stand help.

Can order thru this link https://woodcraft-cfm.com/?ref=m4l02fw68s not a lot but helps. There are tons of R7 products, and more coming.

Cant wait to get some of the other parts mounted up.

I too think GP lift works better than spools at the track, and in general. Woodcraft wasn't available when I got the bike so I went with Fast Frank. I have his GP lift on other bikes and I've never had a problem.

I have the Womet-Tech rear axle slider (from TST) on the R7 but I don't really like the look, I might be switching to Woodcraft for that, I'll get the front too no matter what.

Mine on the rear appear unscratched after the tip over, but the bolt bent. I have some extra bolt's now. I am still shocked at how well the bike came out, minimal damage compared to me. LOL

I just noticed, the rear Woodcraft sliders mount on a spool/lifter mount, not through the axle. The Womet go on the axle. Interesting. I liked the idea of on the axle, one less thing to safety wire.

As well as slider on the SBK Lifter

With my Pit Bull rear stand, and it seems the same way in those pics, the adjustment does not leave you much room. I wish I could flip the spool holders down but there is not enough room. Whatever, it works, it's just higher. I'd get an adjustable Woodcraft stand if I didn't have to wait an unknown amount of time for them to make it.

I don’t typically run any sliders…sometimes they work sometimes they make things worse…🤷‍♂️ Do you use TRS pins with the fast frank setup?

The pitbull trailer restraint system…for transporting bike…the fast frank bolts push the pins out enough you can’t use em without modification so I was seeing if you did that lol but I guess not

Ahhhh good to know! Yes I did plan on transporting that way. I haven't even touched or modded the trailer yet.

Good to know! Thanks for the heads up
