I think they'd be cool with it; they probably borrowed the idea from someone themselves.
Ernest Michaux invented the first 'modern' bicycle in 1861. I find it hard to believe that it was 137 years before someone thought of extending the rear to add cargo room. Xtracycle was simply the first to make a commercially successful product out of the idea.
Great work to all of you building them on your own though! There are some sweet lookin' bikes in this thread.
