I've been searching all over for a full sized front rack for a vintage MTB I use for errands so I could mount a full sized basket to the front. Blackburn still sells one but only in England (?), luckily I just found one through the bicycle forums for $30 shipped. The Nitto rack price is outlandish but I think the rack is cool and for most uses I bet would work great. Someday when I buy my bombadil I'll also want a $200 rack...
