Michele , I did mean the one that Scott linked . I had not thought about it though, but the Surly kit can even be used with that rack, though I don't know it's capacity as it's not stated ! But still, having a larger platform would better support a basket and you could use all sorts of various bags.
The soma rack http://www.somafab.com/archives/product/porteur-rack-stainless-steel, can also take small panniers on the lower horizontal rail. The VO one can as well but the bag mounting interferes with the platform, and the center of gravity would be higher. As for racks like the 27F that attach @ canti mounts, that's fine if your brakes have the right bolt style. Paul and Sun Tour require special and very expensive ($30 pr.) bolts from Paul, ouch. But hey, the Nitto Big Front rack would work all around ! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
