Hey guys, I’m almost pulling the trigger on a Brompton but scratching my head how I could transport my toolbars for work which is a peli case 1510.
So really appreciate suggestions from this great community! TIA
Just think about the 16“ wheel diameter. Your short site is 11“, that ain’t work.
Try a Peli 1640.
Edit: sorry, my brain added a „in a peli“, which is the usual question here.
You may be able to add a front carrier block receiver to the small peli. Get this part either printed or cnc‘ed, depending on your box weight and bolt it on. https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:132096
My be able to find it online pre printed on ebay or similar.

Vertically on a rear rack? I’m not sure how comfortable that would be and you’d need to pay close attention to weight limits, but it might work.
Depending on the outer dimensions (I believe the photo is showing inner dimensions) it might fit on a [Burley Travoy](https://burley.com/products/travoy). A pricey trailer but it works well.

How heavy is the toolbox fully loaded? If 20lbs or less, might be rack mountable or as another redditor (a0ba5e5c8fd122566f79) mentioned converted into a front bag with an adapter.
If over 20lbs, I would recommend a bike trailer that has an adapter to connect to the seat post such as Burley Travoy Trailer or Wike Golf/Utility bike trailer.

Keep in mind that the front carrier block is specified to 10kg and the 1510 is 5.4kg empty.
I think there are some beefy rear racks that could take it, but it’s going to overhang a bunch.
Editing to add more thoughts: it’s worth noting I did this with an empty case and it felt really awkward.
put the case in a trailer and pull it. or Burley Travoy and strap it on the trailer but check the dimension
