Real happy how this turned out, rides great. It's just too hot to try out a heavy load yet.
I love the connection you came up with on the rear rack! The ones that clamp never seemed to work for me, especially when my kids were smaller. Wish I would have thought of this when they were smaller, they all ride on their own now. Nice job!
