    I just found your thread and have recently purchased a 2013 RT SE-5 Limited. Do you think you could fabricate a bike rack for it? I have a 14 pound Specialized and a 20 pound Giant Anthem. I want so badly to take my bike with me but can't find anyone who can help. I live in Florida. Loved seeing your pictures so I know it's possible but I just haven't seen an application where a storage box was involved. i thank you in advance for any help you can give me.

    It looks like some of the rack is attached to the swingarm, and other parts to the Spyder (footpeg and tailpiece). How are you allowing movement between the two? The swingarm "moves" independently and opposite of the rest of the Spyder. Be sure to allow means for the rack to pivot or slide if attached to both. Ingenious solution, even if you have to work out some kinks.

    What did you use for the rack rails? Those look like they would be great for making a lightweight trailer for our TerraTrikes.

    Great job! Another thing if your Spyder breaks down you can ride your bike home.

    That is cool.


    A regular Spyder gets funny looks, I can just imagine what you are getting.
