High Rise Swiveling Bed Frame Caster Wheel, Adjustable Height, Set of 2
The Problem: More in-home storage space needed for seasonal decorations, out of season clothing, children's toys, or other items.
The Solution: A good solution to the above problem is to increase under bed storage space. An easy, economical, and practical way to accomplish this is with the High Rise Bed Frame Adjustable Caster. This High Rise Caster will increase the height of your bed from the floor. This increase in bed height easily translates into increased under bed storage space.
Height Dimensions: Unextended, the High Rise Bed Frame Adjustable Caster is approximately 6" in height (not counting the top shaft which will insert into the bedframe). Fully extended, the High Rise Bedframe Adjustable Caster is approximately 7 1/2" tall (not counting the top shaft which will insert into the bedframe). This caster will add approximately 4 1/2" to the height of your bed above the height provided by the typical caster. Including the height of the attachment point on the bedframe, the High Rise Caster can add up to an additional 12" in height to the bedframe.
Wheel Dimensions: The wheel is approximately 2 1/8" wide and approximately 1 3/4" in diameter. The soft wheel is ideal for hard floors. Its soft construction will help prevent floor damage. Its wide stance also makes it ideal for carpet. The weight of the bed is spread out over a wider area as the wide wheel makes contact with the carpet.
Heavy-Duty Construction: Swiveling casters and ball bearing construction guarantee easy mobility of your bed. The casters are equipped with foot activated brakes which firmly and securely lock the bed into a stationary position. These casters are built to last and perform well.
Plastic Plugs Included: The included plastic plugs make replacing the existing standard casters easy.
Package Includes: One package includes 1 Set of 2 High Rise Adjustable Casters with 2 Plastic Plugs.

This was a great bike, completely at home on the road, on trails, or in snow. It had the dreaded 1.25" steerer, and for non related biking reasons there came a time, I couldn't bend forward comfortably with that reach (and no new stems with a higher rise were being made (or so I thought at the time)) I lgave it to a friend in New York who lazily left it locked up overnight one night, and that was the last it was seen, after 15 years of hard use. I chose this MTB model (bought it new in 1992) because it was the most like a roadbike made, road it very hard through Appalachia on successive trips. Fast, stable, comfortable essentially like a Range Rover claims to be; huge clearance for mud. If I ever come across this model of frame again, I'd pick it up in a flash. As it was in that photo it was barely 23 lbs...pretty impressive w a Brooks seat and fenders! Often when riding in NY people thought I was a cop, it has that "blues brothers retired cop car" look to it.
