Abstract: Users of cycles are limited in the amount that they can carry with them as luggage, owing to the need of having both hands to ride the cycle. Cycle carriers, therefore, provide a convenient way of allowing items to be carried by a cyclist, with the cycle and not the rider bearing the weight of the items. Many carriers, however, are designed for permanent attachment to cycles, this is not always appropriate if the cycle is to be used for other types of riding, where the carrier could be cumbersome or provide a hazard. To overcome such problems, a carrier (1) is presented which is readily attachable and detachable from the frame of a cycle without the need of tools. Furthermore, the carrier (1) is highly adjustable and can easily be fitted to a range of cycles with only minimal and straightforward modifications.
