This isn’t a hardware store come-along. This is a high quality, highly functional, expertly designed, and machined piece of equipment that works.

It is light and small but strong. With everything packet it is 840 grams. It will give me peace of mind travelling with my motorcycle. But I also see a lot of other applications. A real masterpiece!

I am impressed with the build quality and the cool factor. Compact, light and packs up small. It will be in my kit on my enduro motorcycle for BDR rides and in my hunting pack this fall.

What I love about it is the simplicity of a standard come-a-long but with the technology to be light weight, user friendly and super compact.

It is so much nicer carrying the Pocket Winch rather than a full blown come-along. For the weights and type of pulling I do, the Pocket Winch is a great device.

Just received and WOW. This thing is built for war. Can't wait to get a couple 600lb motorcycles stuck so I can test it out.
