All of these devices have two things in common which rule them out for me:

They don't themselves lock down making them a bit of an adventure for me to use.

Getting them off the dolly is even more fun. I'm neither skilled enough or tall enough to try the dolly ride to use the one Mellow ref'ed. Even walking it would require me spending 6mo at Gold's.

My buddy has one for his 'Wing and I believe it was a give from a guy who now has an actual hydraulic bike lift in his garage. I don't think the dolly has ever been used in the two years my buddy has had it. A great idea in theory. In practice it's not for everybody.
The one I saw at the BMW National had locks on each caster so the dolly would not roll while you were loading it. Getting a bike off the dolly looked to me like an adventure - I too am short and the extra inch makes a tipover in the garage much more likely.

And, there is nothing wrong with 6 months in Gold's gym.....
