Aiight. so i'm planning on doing alot of street riding this winter and i wanted to build a drop in ramp that i could assemble and disassemble easily. The main reason is just because i dont always have a truck or a big hatchback to use to just throw it in so if anyone knew any good dimensions or build designs that works for taking up less space ill throw mad K+++ up.

Also i probably wont use the drop in for a summer set up at all since i only pretty much want a super simple drop in ramp with no lip or anything. Havent built anything like this before so any more tips besides the sticked threads would be dope.

Damn beat me to it.

OP definitely use these plans, I used them for my summer set up (which comes apart so I can use it for urban.) However what size of car do you have? This set up would easily fit in a van or a truck I'm not sure how easily it would fit in a hatchback or a station wagon. When folded up its about 10 inches thick, 5 feet long and 2 feet wide without the ramp. If you're hitting rails close to your house it is light enough to carry if you have a friend. Hope this helps man.

Was just about to ask this. Threads for when I'm not on mobile.
