Hello
Jim,
I
would like to offer an updated photo of my MO-05 Condor Swiss military
bicycle, but this time with the anhanger (trailer). This anhanger
has a flat wood deck and also four mounting clasps for a litter/stretcher.
I use it to transport building materials for my one man carpentry
outfit. This anhanger weighs 62 lbs. and the MO-05 weighs 52 lbs.
This leaves little more mass to transport as I live in the second
most hilly city (Seattle) and this thing kills me on my return trip
home from sea-level to 404 feet with only "two" gears (pedal and
push ;-)), but I'm all smiles because the fun factor is soooo high.
The
wheels can be quickly removed by a small rod release. Once removed,
the rails serve as skis making this anhanger a sled. Darn, those
Swiss are cleaver.
Enjoy,
Carl

ps.
Just for fun, you will see that the Condor Club of Holland has also
posted this picture and the other two in which I have taken off
the wheels in the slow to demonstrate the sled capability.
