I was wondering when you were going to pipe-in mikey. This thing started as your idea.

Yeah I have hit a stall point with my truck, waiting for Shrockworks to finish their front bumper. Plus I got back into Mountain Biking so I have been on MTBR.com a lot more then here.

If you were closer I would definitely think of having you build a rear tire carrier for me.

I don't know if he is still building the tire carriers. There were some issues people were having with it.

Yup its a Seabee tire carrier...I've had it on since then and its still holding up strong to lots of miles offroad through pretty rough terrain. I don't think he's made any more. He's an awesome dude to work with I have no regrets.

No I don't think so he pretty much got pissed and left 120. The ones he made were based off my original tire carrier made my JAM07Sport, however he did not use similar materials which I believe led to some of the problems.

Sure seems like he was in it to make a quick buck!

How much did he charge for those?

I think Chris (Seabee) meant to make a decent product since he had it on his own vehicle for awhile, but perhaps didn't handle the problems and criticism that followed correctly. I can't say I am a friend of the guy, but I have met him and he and his family were great to us during the one trip we did together. Live and learn though which is why we have this site to figure out where to get our products from.
