simon says Posted March 22, 2007 Report Posted March 22, 2007 Good Idea, mine use to be a pain in the arse to log around with me, even on my back.. because the board is long it used to twat my back wheel lol. Out of interest how much strain is placed on the seat pole that you use to anchor your device on? and is there any reason, you havnt designed it a little more how a bike rack works, with poles connected to the back wheel bolts. I could see this would cripple the swivel aspect a litte and maybe why... but would offer more strenth maybe, depending on the above ^^. As for the buggy and the space it would take! cant see it being any worse than them devices which fit 2 kids in, like a little tram connected on the back. EDIT, well if they allow this on the road http://www.bikecare.co.uk/products/trailgator.jpg This is the kind of thing i was thinking of, in regards to the kids on the back, http://www.bikecare.co.uk/special_needs/piggyback_mk2.jpg Quote
