   Why Kamishibai

 

 

Bike racks/ Carriers

  The Theatre/box is quite big and with the various props quite heavy. I found the stand that comes with the bike, the sort that lifts the rear wheel, had a tendency to fall over. I made it wider it by at the base by adding a piece of Pipe wider than the stand held on by two Jubilee Clips. This was better than before but the best solution is to adapt a stand Pashley use for there Butchers bikes usually fitted to the front but in this case adapted for the rear. I had to lengthen the struts down as it was fitted to a bike with 20inch wheel and now needs to reach the ground with a 26inch wheel.

A pictured paints a thousand words so here is a picture.  

  

 

Next you will need to fix the box to the rack, and make this a quick release as you will often need to remove the box for travel, or in lifts and going up stairs.

This is how I did it:

  A block of wood to locate the box and another block to secure it with a quick release skewer.

Note:

 I can produce a rack and carrier if anyone is interested contact for price and availability.
