Pics Of Home Made Rear Racks

Postby CATCH22 on Thu Jan 05, 2012 3:26 pm

I need to build cool rear rack for the cruiser that I'm building. Does anyone have pictures of their home made racks or carriers?

XC204 I always thought that was a great rack.

not really home-made but I customized an existing rack.

Randy,
I have seen a version of that rack before and I liked it. I like yours. I had been thinking about doing one like it, but in a natural distressed finish. Right now, I'm in the planning stage of how to make the frame and attach it to the bike.

This is the rack underneath. I chopped it down some.

Great posts guys. I think that I need som ething that I can modify and make fit rather than build from scratch. I love the jet plane theme. What is that...a F-22 Raptor ?
