Here's the Spacebar (I modified it with a piece of 1" aluminum tubing) on a wide (46 cm) Salsa Bell Lap

And here's the Sidetrak on my mountain bike.



I just ordered something from Nashbar to make a really wide bar so I can go absolutely nuts on lights (I wanna add two more 20 watt to the 60 W I have now.) I'm going to remove the bars and add a piece of flat bar in between.
Wow, cyccommute, that's quite a serious rig! I'll bet when people see you coming at them at night, they think a tractor is heading their way - either that or a UFO. When you get the additional lights, we'll all see it before you tell us. ET should be able to see the beam too.
