Grocery Pannier Rack

bdbauer

Anyone know who makes the rack adaption for you bike that extends the wheel base by adding to the back of the bike and at the same time creates two drop down shelves behind the seat? I saw several when I lived in Bozeman, MT and think they would be great for shopping with my bike. Looked sort of like a skateboard behind the seat with tubing attached to the original frame.

thanks

tbh I dont know what you've seen, but a trailer is a lot easier by the sounds of it.

Trailers are usually around 150-300 quid here but a few people are seen using them.

Cass Gilbert reviewed the Xtracycle FreeRadical in C+ 201. It got 8/10.

A FreeRadical kit costs 320 GBP.

You can test ride an SUB (Sports Utility Bike) and get your bike FreeRadicalised too...

ouch, when I first looked they were 250 I thought


downfader - the claim of the Xtracycle is that having it as part of the bike, instead of a trailer, makes it easier to ride and always-there. For utility cycling I think it makes a lot of sense, though I haven't tried it yet.
