The Bike Friday cargo racks are kind of pricy. Is there something cheaper I can do?

I love this bike, by the way. 24 speed. I can't say it rides like my hybrid, but it certainly tackles hills like my hybrid. And the combined derailler/internal hub gearing is certainly interesting. I'm pretty sure I'll never fold it. But my "main" bike (a Trek Verve 2) is so big that the BF is going to be a lot easier to schlep around when I don't want to get upper body exercise putting a bike on a rack.

But, anyway: racks?


you can try this cheap one, its a clone from former dahon traveler front rack.
