Stretch is taking shape in an "organic process".

Weld, grind, weld.....

This idea scored top points for creativity, but that's all. Hours of careful thinking removed with a grinder.......

A very late night last night has produced this so far.................

• Rock solid
• Rides like a dream
• Carries a load without a problem
• Would be lighter if made of carbon fibre

Handles very well with the 15kg load, even placed up that high.

Technical detail: Notice the second gorilla (that was acting as a chain tensioner) has gone, not needed.

Elegant solution, still a way to go.

Action List:

• Fit plywood deck on rear rack
• Complete sides of rear rack
• Tidy up the metal-work
• Strip and paint (Afrika Korp Brown RAL 8020)
• Install both brakes
• Install rear gorilla with a friction clicker
