[go-go-syncro] New spare wheel carrier?

[Martin Henning]

!crosspost!

Hey guys,

my main computer is currently broken, so I can't update my spare wheel  
carrier collection (http://www.easy2design.de/bulli/racks) right now,  
but i just got some new pictures, which I want to share... promising  
solution for the "my carrier is in the way"-problem. The carrier is  
supposed to go around all the way enabling you to load and unload more  
easily. Supposedly it can also carry bikes, gas cans and whatever  
else... here you go:

As i understand, the whole mechanism is already patented and supposed  
to be stiff enough to be used as a ladder in every position. It was  
made by Dirk16 from German IG16 and is supposed to be commercially  
available "soon". Don't know more details on that, though, except that  
it "will look much better" than this prototype :D

I'll add more pictures to my collection as soon as I get them and my  
computer is back from repair. There is also a movie demonstrating the  
mechanism, but i couldn't get my hands on it, yet, as it seems to be  
too large for email... I'll see what I can do about that.

See ya,

martin, still looking for input for my winch mount collection! (http://www.easy2design.de/bulli/winches
