I was sitting on my 30 year old Shovel (on my b-day!), at the stop sign at the end of my block. My 82 year old neighbor (now dead), was turning into my street from the right & turned into me. She said the sun was in her eyes. Because of the age of the bike, it was considered totaled. I had to have my knee replacement redone, too. :/

So did you find one that worked or did you have to get one for the thin tire and spit it?

We cut the one available & welded a rod underneath it.

I have one dog that would really enjoy being on a bike with the wind in her face. Trouble is I would be afraid what would happen to her if we ever got in an accident. I can take what would happen to me but not the dog.

In 30 years, we've never been in an accident together. This includes my other dogs who have ridden with me, all over the country. I'm sure they'd be willing to take the same risks I do, for the joy of the ride!

Default Sweet!

I've been waiting since I got my FatBoy Lo in 2011 for HD to wise up and make the solo rack for this bike. Love your solution. I will be looking into doing the same.
