also if 20 inch they lay much lower in front, i wonder how that changes their behavior
There are smaller gadget to atatch to the rack. Also i would look into making something or just atatch directely to the rack or low down on the seatpost.

Using a tall rack is also an option, maybe one of the ones Andersen sell for full size bikes?

I bought one for a friend some years ago so I have one near by to look at and I would not worry about handeling when towed on a low bike. I would on the other hand not load it with 50 kg and tow it after a low bike, at least not far. That would put more strain on the frame (and less on the wheels) than the manufacturer intended. There is a alu and a steel frame option. That would play a role too.

The entry level ones are not hard to ind around here but the ones I am looking for you have to mail order. RThat is getting easyer now, a few years agi I could not find anybody to order from. There are a few on Ebay now.
