Getting feed back on a new bicycle product

Please check out this idea for changing a regular bike into a tandem. It's a new product that I jsut
recieved a patent on and I'm getting feedback before trying to take it to market.

It takes about 10 minutes to switch it back and forth, and uses no tools. Rides just like a rigid
frame tandem, not a trailer type bike.

Also, what are the real trend setting bike shops that I can take this to for additional input?

Thanks, Frank Schaefer Tandem Adapter LLC Austin, TX

(1) It's not a new idea. See the Alleycat or any ohter trail-a-bike.

(2) Try spamming rec.bicycles.marketplace

(3) Do your own market research.
