Bike parking on meters

Greg Wilson:

Just got Bicycle Forum # 42. I'm trying to locate the manufacturer of a bike rack that is designed to be mounted on a parking meter post . Was it the City of Missoula that used them ? I know I've seen one. Do you know if any of the companies you listed handles them ? Any partricular problems with them ?

John Williams:

I can think of two designs. One was by Sunshine U-Lok Corp. (PO Box 7536, Thousand Oaks CA 91359 (818) 707-0110) and the other is the circular Toronto design (email Daniel Egan at: daniel.egan@olc.gvc.com (Daniel Egan) for more info).

Don't know about problems. We don't use either one in Missoula. Ours are the basic hitching rail design.
