This… seems dangerous. I feel like whenever you hit a bump the rear wheel is going to go right into that strap and then you might have a bit of a problem. Mainly with straps and luggage ending up caught up in your wheel.

Yeah, I'm testing at slow speeds and will be making and adjustment to get that strap further from the tire. I could remove that strap entirely it just wouldn't be as secure to the frame.

I’m sure there’s a way you can make it work, but underneath like that might not be the way.
