Lookin ahead at gas prices and though this will pay off. I received my Xtracycle kit today and got the frame, brakes, derailer, and wheel mounted. Used Deore XT brakes, XT derailer(9 spd) and wheel from a MTB purchased for cheap at auction. Need to buy long, long cable housings.
The Kona getting ready.
Had to spread the frame to 135mm. Frame mounted up close.
Bike and frame
Rear wheel mounted . Going to use the Ritchey Mobi slicks for tires
Racks mounted up with the load swallowing bags.
I have a new front fork to allow for brakes that still needs to be attached. Once I finish the cables and adjustment, it will be ready to haul. People, bike finds, beer and what ever else gets straped to it.
