Hunquapiller is nice! I bought a New Nitto Front Rack and just got done installing it. P-clamps are a pain but they are the best solution overall. Only one bolt on each side. Less flex than having long arms. Lighter, stiffer, cleaner look etc. When I had my Atlantis repainted I had some barrel braze ons attached to the fork in the standard mid fork position. It bugs me that I have a braze on 1.25 inches from the fork slot that I can't use. I am extremely anal and fastidious on my bike set up and if I was you, I'd go with the P-clamps.... Clayton Bailey
