I think its a great idea. Bit of a far drive from NC to CA though.

What is the ground clearance on a flat surface under the rear pan?
The stock tire (and rim), inflated, is about ?? inches wide?
How wide is the Altina tire and rim (probably an inch less wide)?
Thanks, Gary

Compatble "trailer hitch" ... how do you say? ... much frost.
I await some details:
2" Receiver?
handle several hundred pounds?
drilling not required?
Cheers, Gary
garygid said:Just an empty cargo-carrier rack is about 50 pounds. Of course, a bike rack is much lighter.
To be useful, it really needs to safely support a cargo-rack plus about 200 or 250 pounds.
So, perhaps 300 pounds overall, I suspect.
With road shock, one probably needs to design for 3 or 4 times the anticipated static weight, right?
