    There is no dumb questions when it comes to flatbed!! I see guys hauling little toy plastic tonka trucks when they are empty so i wouldnt see why a bike would be an issue. I guess the only question would be if u hit the scale house , do u pick the empty lane or loaded lane?

    Scales. Loaded or empty. I took a play on the question.

    Thanks for the help. I was assuming that it was going to be a bigger issue than it is. The original plan was to throw 2 4" straps over it, but that may change when I get it up on the deck.

    That looks so much smarter than what I would have ended up with.

    Lol :) I forget what I used to strap it to. I think I would use a 1” ratchet with the hooks in the chain hanger openings...
