Bartamos: I loved the article...in fact I remember reading it when it first came out. I especially liked the way you used the four-pin trailer connector as a cover for the crank. Very clever, well done! I'm using a version of the old original spare tire carrier on my 48 and the way I had to set it up will be problematic if/when I have to access the spare. Your arrangement is pretty cool, and looks so easy to use!
