Seeing as this post somehow turned into a critique of my design. There IS a rock deflector underneath in front of the rear wheel and it works just fine. This bike is fun and fun, plain and simple.
I wouldn't sweat it torques... even though I don't like the look of rack-mounts, I can appreciate the originality of your work 8)
It's never easy to change a design to what YOU want
We here are all tinkerers and think 'outside the box' or we wouldn't be riding these ear-to-ear smile makers
All that matters, is that it works for you and you enjoy it
