Thanks for the photo submission Kevin!
“I commute by bike year round in Minneapolis, and wanted something for more cargo. I got an old Burley Flatbed for 40.00, took off the parts that I wasn’t using (used one for extra bottom support), covered the frame in electrical tape, put a sheet of 1/2 ply wood on top, and it works great!”
Nice work on fixing up this pre-2009 Burley Flatbed. The wrapped frame and plywood top look great.
This brings to mind that the MSRP on the current model 2011 Burley Flatbeds have been adjust downward from $299 to $249. This price improvement makes the Burley Flatbed one of the most competitively priced bike cargo trailers on the market.
