I like yoot's idea. I have a DX rat that doesn't get ridden much in it's current guise; maybe I'll re-do it for BO10.

Here ya go. No charge for the concept!

In order for this to work with my fat butt, you would have to add a cargo rack out front with a full pony keg as a counterweight. :android:

Well, I may not even be part of it yet, but hit my first roadblock! I ordered some brake discs for the build that will be my build-off 09 bike if I am in it, and found out they don't fit my wheels! Turns out my wheels are early disc brake with a 6x48mm bolt circle and the International Standard is 6x44mm... :(

Guess I will be rethinking my wheel choice...

There is a problem with your solution. As you ride, you drink the beer-therefore your center of gravity constantly changes.
A better solution for you may be to substitute the skateboard wheels for a furniture dolly.:grin:
Maybe an extended boom out front with a cow catcher for ballast and a pair of training wheels at back.

Already thought of that, but would not suit the look of the bike I want to build, so thinking I will go the other way and just build new wheels to suit the brakes... o_O Got to love doing things the hard way... :happy:
