I don't see any reason for having those low-rider bosses in the front fork, if you have nothing to use them with.David Pearcehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17580599628294869568noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24415034.post-76041393533554265462014-05-11T05:19:25.028-04:002014-05-11T05:19:25.028-04:00That's a great product.

You'll not only sell the Beer Rails to existing customers, but you'll sell more of the racks to new buyers, if the price is right.<br /><br />I mean what beer drinker in ownership of a bike with a rack has never, out of hopeful curiosity, test fit a six pack on it, puzzling over how to make it stay? This design is simple and elegant, and the concept sure to draw smiles wherever you ride at beer time.<br /><br />So, very attractive concept, well worth testing thoroughly. Neither the concerns of rail-to-package fit nor excessive shaking should be deal breakers, just limitations or recommendations for use. (E.G. Should I expect to need to cut a piece of foam for padding the bottom?) <br /><br />I have a hunch the price needs needs to be almost in impulse buy territory. Can you make a decent margin at $40-50?SAnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24415034.post-67461902257104680752014-05-10T19:48:44.786-04:002014-05-10T19:48:44.786-04:00Put me down for one!Put me down for one!Wanderlusthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07990875460195539487noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24415034.post-29854338593029315872014-05-10T12:04:14.659-04:002014-05-10T12:04:14.659-04:00Finally, an accessory worth looking into.
