Turn the casters sideways.

A customer has a Mason BB on thick carpet with thick padding underneath, that moves fore-and-aft with pedaling. Caster cups don't make much difference (these are the 3 1/2" wide double casters). The casters aren't rolling (so brakes wouldn't help); there's just not enough side resistance. Ideas? Terry, what do you use on those cruise ships again??
