- do you have to go under the wing to adjust or lock the height ?

Yes, this feature is much more elegantly solved with the Lange
design. But I see no safety risk in this.

I really don't want to be repeatedly bending over
and/or crawling under the wing.
This is NOT necessary with a good design !


You are right is not necessary, but the the additional comfort (or usability in you case) comes with a higher price tag. When I adjust the hight of the wing I normally sit on the round and do not bend my back.
