Very cool . I've never seen a sidecar on a crab before. Just regular
buggies. I'm sure that will be a ton of fun especially for the passenger! Looking forward to the video! BTW what is the cylinder behind the front
wheel? I thought it might be a balast tank or storage maybe?
Thanks for sharing

That is pretty ingenious jantie. At our annual buggy event one of the guys gives rides and people seem to love it!

the balance in a Crab is even more delicate then a regular buggy,
so a mistake followed by an eject is easily made hahahaha...
@ktguru: thanks!!
