How do I gain entry into the platform ?

Simply step through the  bar that is located on the front of the platform.  Mind your head!

What if my fork dimensions are larger than what you say the platform pockets will accept ?

This will not be a problem, although we would ask you to contact us with your fork dimensions, as we would need to modify the platform pockets to suit
