Here we have a fairly standard rear bike rack. We need to bent the front half out of the way in
order to fit on the front of the bike.

I bent the metal with my knee. You could use a vise, its probably a lot easier.

It should look something like this–>

The next thing I needed was to construct a mount for the top. I went to Home Depot and bought some Aluminum bar stock. Then I hand bent the bar into shape:

Next I mounted the bar stock to the rack, and then to the stem of the bicycle.

This is the mount that I used. I was from a motorcycle bar end mirror.

I would suggest using

something a little easier to find.

This could be an option in order to hang them from your handlebars instead of the stem. Mc Master Catalog Page #1474

The skewer for the bike is now going to go through the rack and wheel.

That’s All Folks, not much to it. Now go on out there and enjoy the rack!
