    the problem will be if you have a flat back tire while on the road and you don't realize it...I guess...

    I've heard it said that this is a bad idea for a shaft bike, unless you remove the driveshaft so that it doesn't turn the transmission.

    The concept has been around for at least 20 years; they aren't just for HD.

    Cheap and compact options abound, but that is the most compact of all.

    Harbor freight makes a small folding trailer that many people have modified into bike haulers. Once folded it can be stored upright against a garage wall. They do require new bearings from the get-go though.
