Replacement

I ordered this as a replacement for a 44' backboard. I saw no reason to replace a perfectly good base and pole and have to dispose of the old one. It came very quickly. It was easily put together. My 12 year old helped me briefly, otherwise, was a one person job. Fit perfectly with my existing base and pole. was well worth going up to the 50'. Kids love it

Replacement Backboard and Rim

Needed a replacement for a portable Lifetime backboard mounted on a round pole, and this one seemed to be a good value and meet the specs. Setup was easy, and even as a larger backboard (had a 44 inch prior) the universal system of mounting that lifetime has (we have an adjustable height mount) was adapted to this new backboard. The steel frame really adds to stability and it is really an excellent product, about the best you can get for the price. It was not only a good value as opposed to buying an entirely new system, but an upgrade. I would highly recommend this product to anyone. Shipping was fast and reliable and Competitive Edge provided a great product and great service.

Good for backyard play

We wanted the 54 inch, but did not like the black box in the middle so settled for the smaller 50 inch. It is kind of small especially on the 10 foot high setting, but the extra 4 inches probably would not make much difference. You would have to go to a 66-70 inch backboard to have a regulation look but then you are talking $1000 and up so for the money this is a great backboard. I would highly recommend spending the extra $50 or so to get a 48-54 inch backboard and not settle for the 44 inch. Does not have the bounce of a true glass backboard, but is sufficient for backyard play. Instructions say 2 people can put it up and my friend and I did on 2 tall ladders with great difficulty. I highly recommend a third person (1 to hold each side and the 3rd to screw in place)

Q: I have the lifetime adjustable system for the Reebok 599771. I was told that 59971 is no longer available and I should consider 71525. I only need the backboard and rim. I still have the pole and adjustable bracket system made by lifetime. Which backboard/ rim will work as a replacement for my existing pole?

Asked by: Marlon - 10/26/2020

A: Basketball Compatibility
First: Is the system made by Lifetime?
Second: Is the pole round?
Third: Is the pole diameter 3.5-inches?
Fourth: Is there a Y-Shaped bracket where the mounting arms mount to the pole?
If you can answer yes to all of these, than any Lifetime backboard and rim combo we sell will work with your hoop. If you answer no to any of these, than the backboards we sell will definitely not work with your system, and you will need to call 1-800-225-3865 to get the backboard you need. Here are our Basketball Backboards, and that say lifetime on them will work if you can say yes to all the above questions.

Q: Is there a mounting bracket for this system that attach to a squat pole?

Asked by: Gary - 5/21/2019

A: What's a squat pole? Do you mean square pole maybe? There is no bracket that attaches this to a square pole. There is a bracket that amounted to a 3.5 inch round pole. In fact, there's two. One is adjustable and is model number 1044 and the other is fixed height and is model number 9594.

Q: 1) Do I need to also purchase the kit to attach it to the station? 2)I live in Hawaii, USA. Does this include free shipping?

Asked by: Ryan - 8/5/2016

A: This basketball Backboard does not include a Mounting Bracket. You will need a mounting bracket to attach to a pole. The brackets sold can only attach to a 3.5" round pole. Unfortunately we do not ship to Hawaii, you would need to ship to somewhere in the continental US and then find a way to get it to you from there.
