adjustable but noisy

On: 2006-07-14

I bought this rack because of the advertised weight, rated capacity, and a $17 experiment isnt going to kill me. The adjustability is nice and the single rear support helps with aerodynamics. However, the rear pivot makes such a racket that it drives me nuts. I like my bikes to be silent except for shifting and braking.

450 grams is an exaggeration. Once you add the beefier seat stay brackets its more like 580 grams. The 30 lb. capacity is likewise an exaggeration. I tried to carry a twelve pack of beer in addition to my tool kit the other day and the 13-14 lb. load was enough to bend the seat stay brackets. Its fortunate that I rarely carry more than 5 lbs.
