A tow rack for the Juiced ODK U500

2016 Feb 26th

Here is a simple, easy to build solution for towing a bike with a U500. 

This is not my idea, I have seen others on the net. It is made from 1 inch square thin wall steel tubing. 

 It attaches to the towing bike at three points, under the axle bolt, at the chain guard bracket, and to the cargo deck.

 There is an adjustable bar that is positioned so that some effort is required to push the tire in.  It holds the towed bike by the front tire, so there is no damage to the paint etc.

 I wrap a bungee around the rim and bar for safety sake.

It looks like the front tire is hitting the ground here, but it clears by about 4-5 inches.
