scooter rack for a mountain bike

[Scooter Mcgee]

ive been thinking for a few days now, how rad it would be to have some sort of thing on the back of my mountain bike that i could put my scooter on, cause we all know scooters arent great to cruise around town on by themselves.

anybody got some ideas on how to do this?
my first idea is just those racks that go on the back of bikes, i could lay my scooter upside down or something

i havent really come to any good ideas

well this is the first thing that came to my head.
problems
-pedal clearance
-keeping the bars from spinning
-and the fact that i dont know exactly you would mount it to the frame

Yeah ive thought of this too, i have no idea how it would work though, maybe getting a body board rack and modifying it for a scooter?

I've been trying to think of a backpack for scooter riders.

I think that would be more plausible, that way you can use it for any bike/motorcycle. The best bet would be a way to take the bars off the fork and figure out a way to secure the bars and the rest of the scooter to the back pack. Bars are easy cause you can just slide 'em into something slight larger than themselves and they'll stay in cause of the crossbar, but the deck is kinda harder. I would love this so much cause then I'd just ride my bike to parks haha.

yea. where are the fuckin photoshop wizards. do us up some plans??!!!!!!!

 

[Kyper]

Yeah. I've been drawing out some ideas because that way I could ride my motorcycle to the street spots I ride instead of having to take a cage to carry it.

I've been thinking of a backpack where on the exterior it had a pouch that will hold your deck and your headset and everything. All you have to do is loosen up the bolts and take off the bars and put them in the backpack in another compartment and when you get to the park just tighten them back up and ride.

here u go
if anyone wants to no, the cloth was there coz my paint on my sr fork was still drying

and one for the hell of it

 

[Kyper]

I couldn't ride well with that thing there.

 

[Hep Greg]

i own this

so if anything i think youd have to loosen the bolts and rearrange to fold it or just take the bars off
ad then sort of put it in a long ish bag with straps.

the only part u can feel is the top/middle of the bars, it doesnt get anoying for me

 

[Scooter Mcgee]

woah i thought i was the onlt one that thought of thiss

i can have something made, i have access to shit like that
but i dont know what


i would just love to ride my bike to parks.

I think a pretty good rack would be one for the front where the deck is parallel with the wheel and the scooter bars are somehow attached to the bike bars. So just picture the scooter upright but backwards right next to the front wheel.

for a backpack, I'm thinking it would work if you do the same thing as a skateboard backpack, which means you'd just take out one of the foldy bolts and fold it up instead of taking off the bars which is a pain to put back on and realign each time you get to the park, or wherever, so you'd just stick it and strap it in and have the bars either sticking up or down I guess.

 

[Jdbug_rob]

removing the two top foldy bolts
fold it up
slide into a slim bag, like gregs bags.

 

[JonnyJonDogg]

why not just ride your scooter the whole way?

 

[dre]

because biking is way faster, and you can go off road.
