I don't think the threaded rod will ever cause a problem. You really don't have to even lube it that often. When you lift it to a certain height it will stay there forever without any stress. You pretty much have an infinite height adjustment over the range of the threaded rod. You can even padlock the lift at the highest point if you want to disable any movement like in a showroom. I use a heavy duty drill and it will fly up and down.

Wish I were local. This is a great design, and I have limited space as well.

I saw an easy rizer at Birmingham NEC in 1999 and dreamed of one until 2012 when i bought one....NIGHTMARE!!!
1. i couldn't find any1 who had it...even one of the people on there list who i know through racing bikes so couldn't 'try before I buy'
2. No-one at the factory with any technical knowledge was available to talk to.
3. There is no movement on price...even for trade purposes and taking into account it is considerably more expensive than an equal quality table
4. They took weeks to post it
5. Essential parts were missing on arrival
6.it burns drills out unless you use a good quality and usually expensive drilling (technically adding to its price as it is a nuisance having to use a drill for jobs and the lift...usually meaning you will get fed up and buy another just for the lift)
7. The wheel holders and other attachments were made to fit tightly....i assume with no thought for the powder coating to be applied during production adding to thickness, meaning that when you build the lift this gets damaged causing it to rust later and looking 'shabby' quite quickly...i also assume that this could corrode to the lift for people only using occasionally and potentially seize in place.
8. It is very time consuming to change attachments if used in a workshop environment on various bikes and if extreme care isn't taken you could easily damage bike to be lifted.
9. Extreme force was needed to remove wheel holders causing further damage
10. Company accepted return, accused me of keeping the parts that were missing, as well as damaging it (i could not use it without taking the coating off it as there wasn't any tolerance)
11. The boss was then aggressive and intimidating when i asked for a refund.
12. No refund was given, yet they kept the product I paid for!!!!
If/when I get chance i will try and get hold of one and put a video on YouTube with the things they don't want you to see

In my opinion BEST AVOIDED
