  1. Dear All,

    I was wondering if anyone has any idea where I might get hold of a rear
    cycle rack to fit to a trailer bike with a 20" wheel?

    I have asked at a couple of LBSs and search the usual on line cycle
    suppliers but without success.

    The obvious answer is to enter the domain of the folding bike. However,
    I suspect that bike racks for folding bikes are fairly make specific and
    therefore might not fit on a trailer bike.

    Any thoughts?

    Many thanks,

    Gordon

    Have you tried fitting a normal rack to the bike? AFAIR most small
    wheel bike racks are the same as the big wheel racks. If they were
    smaller you wouldn't be able to put panniers on them without the
    panniers dragging on the ground.

    The chaps at ICE make Thingies which drop bolt to the eyelets and drop the
    mounting hole at the bottom of the rack leg a bit, which may help.
    Alternatively a standard rack and bits of metal from B&Q / a box in the
    Shedde to extend the upper mount to where you want it.
