We bought this for our Bike Friday tandem it was the only rack that would fit a larger seat post. Easy to attach, light weight, sturdy rack.

Nice Looing Rack

On: 2007-07-29

I bought this rack a few months ago. So far its worked great in a tight spot when its a must I carry something extra in tow, such as extra books from the library. Official and nice looking and its very light-weight. Easy to assemble on the bike. My only drawback is that it moves a bit if you dont give it a firm twist of the screw. Im OCD when it comes to things looking perfect and lined up on my bike.

Functional Bike Rack - With some Warnings

On: 2007-05-14

I purchased this rack to carry Medical First Aid Supplies on a 180 mile, 2 day bike ride (I am a Paramedic riding as a medic). The rack was completely functional, and I used it successfully on my Canondale road bike. There are, however three issues that need to be published to potential buyers using road bikes:
1. The metal teeth on the inside of the clincher are dangerous for use on carbon fiber seat posts (might damage the post).
2. The size of the seat post clincher is wide for a narrow road bike seat, and rubbed against my legs during the ride. (not too bad)
3. The rack with a load will change the weight distribution to the rear on the bike, and standing up on the pedals on a climb will cause the bike to fishtail slightly more than normal. (I was able to compensate after a couple of hours and minimized this problem)

I love this rack!

I am totally happy with this rack. I have a nice lightweight road bike that I dont want to clutter with a fixed rack but I wanted to have the capability to carry some extra gear or run some errands when I felt like it. This rack is PERFECT for that. I am impressed with the high quality material and welds, and the quick release function works great. I just did a 40-mile ride to Costco and stocked up with a rack trunk (fits perfectly on the Delta rack under my saddle) full of vitamins etc. The rack was rock-solid and vibration free. The tag that comes with the rack actually states a carry capacity of 40 lbs vs. the 25 mentioned here but I would be a bit wary of that much load. Very high quality, nice lightweight rack with super-easy on and off mounting. Five stars all the way for my purposes.
